The lock to the chiller has NOW been changed. Please present your current key to

Brent Caldwell and you will be issued with a new key. If you require a key, you can

purchase these for $20. A chiller key will also be available at Sporting Life. Please note

that in order to borrow this chiller key you first must be a current financial member

and you must present your 2013 membership card in store. The chiller key must be

returned that day!! This is also a good reminder to current chiller key holders not to

lend their chiller key out to anyone who is not a current financial member too.

The committee has also been informed by a resident that some members are cutting

up animals at the chiller. PLEASE DO NOT CUT UP ANIMALS AT THE CHILLER!!!!

CHILLER USE:

It has come to the attention of the committee that there are still a number of animals

not being tagged in the chiller.

Hunters please note: your animal must be tagged or else it could be removed from the chiller. There are blank tags provided in the chiller if you don’t already have one. OR tags

can be easily made from cut up ice cream container lids!

This actually happened!!!!!!!! They dressed the truck up with the guy tied down on the roof. The driver and passengers put on Moose heads. Then they went down the toll road Interstate, causing 16 accidents.

Yes, they went to jail... Yes, alcohol was involved...

This proves that men cannot be left alone.

Fishing report for December 2012 - January 2013

With summer starting to turn up, the winter spawning rivers are now finally slowing down

with good dry fly fishing on the rivers in the afternoon/evenings now with some brown

and green beetle about. You would have to think that the cicadas will be hatching soon if

the heat carries on and well worth casting a cicada fly when the singing is good.

Mixing up dry flies on dark and at night on the rivers between black, brown and green

dry flies to see what the fish are taking on the night is the key as there are mayflies,

caddis and stoneflies of different colours hatching at the moment – black, brown and

green mayflies and of course blue-dun and lace-moths will be about too.

The summer nymphing and wet lining in the rivers is still worth a go in the mornings with

the green and brown woolly buggers on the sinking line and the hare-coppers and

pheasant tails and green, white and brown caddis with also black, green and brown

stonefly nymphs to mix it up depending on what is hatching at the time.

The summer lake and river mouth fishing will soon be happening as the smelt come into

the shallows to spawn over summer. With the warm water use smelt flies during the day

and black flies and lumo’s at night at the river mouths will be worth a go. The boat

fishing on Taupō should be picking up soon with some smelt being in deep places but the

fish on the lake still seem to be handy to find. Moving around is the key to finding them

with the smelt flies and lures.

Tight lines everybody and good luck

Stephen de Malmanche.
