jaybez Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) Went to a spot I saw on Saturday afternoon and couldn't fish then so went out for a fish this afternoon. Nearly took an impromptu swim a few casts in. Cast to the top of the pool under the bridge I parked at. Said to my mate, would love to catch a fish and two seconds later get a hit. Nice early 40s rainbow landed. Two more smaller fish followed from the next pool up but had to leave as soon as I arrived, was needed at home. Oh well can't complain about 3 trout in 10-15 minutes of proper fishing. All taken on a copper gold spinner. Edited October 17, 2023 by jaybez 7

jaybez Posted October 20, 2023 Author Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) Thanks Bessel, I wonder if it was a hybrid? Definitely not a brown only, look at the pink on its cheek. Heaps of people thought that it was a brown also. Edited October 20, 2023 by jaybez

R E G I C Y C L E Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Definitely a rainbow, just quite spotty. Nice fish!
bessell1955 Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 Oh, OK so the Trout I commented upon is not a Brown but is in fact a Rainbow? Do the interbreed? 1
faker Posted October 22, 2023 Posted October 22, 2023 Cool trout, i am a bit afraid of fresh water fishing after the dumpster fire at lake parramatta

Do the interbreed? Yeah that's what I reckon. You're not the only one who thought it was a brown though. All my brothers thought so too. I'm wondering if they interbreed.
Pickles Posted October 28, 2023 Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Great report @jaybez, were the copper gold spinners Celta’s or other brand and did you try other colours.? What weight rod / reel / line were you fishing ? Thanks for sharing. Edited October 28, 2023 by Pickles
