Chris: The Selwyn River looks beautiful. Now I see what they are talking about when they say most of the fishing in NZ is done by sight fishing, the water is really clear. That was a beautiful fish! That looks like the same kind of water that JP fishes in France, very low water and extremely clear. Thanks for sharing.

Chris great pictures-- looks like a real pretty place to fish--- and tough at times with trout laid up in the shade underneath the trees in such shallow, crystal clear water.

And a great shot of that trout- very impressive!

I rember seeing some of JPs pics and thinking how similar his river looked to mine, of the three rivers I fish most the dirtyist only has slight colour

It can be very tough on some days the fish see you from so far you cant cast to them and others they dont see you or dont care that your there and they can be very pickey

the pic with the fish is where my favorite streach of water starts and its just about the best time to fish it
