Thanks mate. A lot of these small streams do dry up during the summer but when the water is flowing down them the fish move up from the lake or river that they flow into.

@@winterwolf7249 ah right, that does explain it! Looks like you’ve got some really decent fly fishing over there, your videos are fantastic

It is not easy and takes more patience than I usually have.

Hi mate, I use Woolley Buggers on a sink tip line sometimes. Small wets, like Black and Peacocks, are good. Sometimes I cast and retrieve these wets and sometimes I drift them under an indicator. In the winter, in the creeks, I use egg flies like the Clear Drift eggs.

Hi mate, cool, come and say g'day next time. During winter I use the clear drift egg flies. 8mm orange ones work well most times. I have had to order them from NZ or the US (you need to order hooks for them too as they are just the rubber egg - Tiemco TMC 2457 hooks in size 12 are good). Woolly Bugger wet flies work sometimes and smaller wets like Black and Peacocks or Bassano's Woolley Worm. Last year, when there had been a lot more rain, I was still catching trout in the creeks in December. I hope you get a few!

Thanks. This is in the dams and streams South of Perth.

Egg flies are good at this time of year as well as small wets like Black and Peacocks.

Very low indeed, mate.

G'day. I use a 3 weight for dry flies on trout. I use a 5 for streamers, usually a 6 if it is windy. I like a sink tip line for fishing woolley buggers and streamer flies, but a floating line is ok too. This was Harvey Dam in the winter.

Thanks 👍

Hi mate, I often use a size 10 or 12 Black and Peacock under the indicator. I have also used a fly called the J.W. Debutante (which I ordered online from the US). This fly has worked very well for me in Harvey Dam when rainbows are cruising the shallows and edges. Nymphs also work. If I'm using a dry as an indicator, I usually use a Royal Wulff, as they are pretty buoyant and fairly easy to see with the white wings. As for location, I have had really good sessions at times in all the dams from Waroona down to Big Brook Dam near Pemberton.

Thanks mate I will have to give it a try

Hi mate, any time of year is worth a try, but you may have to fish deep as the shallow margins heat up over summer. Always a chance of some big redfin by-catch too.

Hi mate, thanks. I fish all the dams/lakes from Waroona down to Wellington and Big Brook Dam. They are all good at times and in different places.

Thanks 👍

Hi mate, any of the well known dams around Waroona, Harvey and down to Pemberton hold trout.

Hi mate, I use woolly buggers a lot. Often on a sink tip line, but a floating line is OK if that's what you have. The fish in this video were caught on egg flies, which are good during the spawning time of year (even in lakes, but especially in the rivers and creeks). You can buy glo-bugs and other egg flies, but I was using Clear Drift eggs. I had to order them direct from Clear Drift in the US. They are a soft rubber/plastic, so the fish seem to hold onto them longer. I fished the egg about three or four feet below a strike indicator. I tried the New Zealand strike indicator for the first time, and it was great. It allows you to quickly and easily adjust the depth. You can order the NZ strike indicator kits from most fly shops. Good luck with it!

Thanks mate

@@outdooradventureswa8436 Hi, Russell from the Australian Trout Foundation here. Not sure if you know, but there are two events coming up. The first is Troutfest at Drakesbrook reservoir on 21st Oct, and the second is Pemberton Trout Festival at Big Brook reservoir on Nov 5th. At both events there will be tuition on fly casting, demonstrations of fly tying, and brochure guides available on where and how to fish for trout in the SW. Plus many experienced fly fishers who will be happy to share their knowledge with you.

Maybe one day!

Harvey Dam mate

I wasn't expecting anything like that. I went there after mullet.

@@winterwolf7249 I was there last Friday and there were huge schools of mullet there by the wooden docks. Couldn’t get any to take my streamer but there were heaps. I also didn’t expect mullet there to be honest !

Sometimes there are huge mullet above the rocks in the freshwater section of river. I hooked one on a tiny nymph but after a few long, powerful runs, it broke me off on a branch.

Thanks mate, the big one was a nice surprise

Thanks mate. This was on the dams around the Waroona and Harvey areas.

A black woolley bugger and a sink tip line

Hi mate. It can be tough at times, but worthwhile for sure.

Thanks mate, it was a good day out.

Hi mate, if you explore the freshwater dams south of Perth you will find some nice places.
