Back in another life in Vic and SA, we used to fish for brown trout using little Celta spinners.......

Damn that water was cold!!!
I used to have a handle on life.......then it broke.

Barra on marabou jigs might have to be the new challenge this year I think

Mate of mine put me onto Crickhoppers , he trolls windlanes at dawn & dusk with crickhoppers & usually gets few.

As for Stuckeys theyre a brilliant lure but hard to get .....unless you know him.
They're so good we used to go to Glenbawn in the Hunter valley & would have guys chasing us to buy our Stucks second hand ....if we'd sell em.

Heres a nice Bron form Eucumbene, on a small pink stuckey .................

pity bout the rough lookin head,....not the one on the fish either :fu: :fu: :fu:
