heckendorfmortgage Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Caught my first trout whilst in Rotorua NZ leadlining on lake rotorua with some friends and a great guide. Leadlining was something new to me. Then I spun up a nice one in the ngongotaha stream after several hours of folows and possible attempts. Very nice smoked.

heckendorfmortgage Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 I cant take the credit for the smoking, it was 74yoa uncle Bob who we stayed with, he's got the old fridge behind the shed. There is not too much that he doesnt know about catching and smoking trout. He even knows a bit about distilation . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
