It’s named after the Duchess of York who visited there and fished it in the 1920’s. She was the mother of our current Queen. She always took time out when here to go fishing.
Hi Ray, I’ve included a link in the description to my video on how to make that indicator. One point I must add, since making that video I’ve found it best to use mono instead when I say to use backing material. Will make sense when you watch.
That’s actually not true. Category 3 are tied in the Philippines, Umpqua are tied in Shanghai China, there is another factory in Sri Lanka though not sure which companies use them. Even if you were right, the company’s still tell the factory what materials to use and what patterns to tie.
great video there mate, some nice fishing in the Tongariro, great stuff, always good to get out on the water when we can
Thanks mate
Nice vid mate. Thanks for the tip on the indicator set up, it works a treat and is certainly easier than using clear tubing.
Your welcome. Happy it’s working for you. Lots and of trial and error went into that 😁
Awsome video!! Got to love the scenery and ofcourse the fishing, gorgeous rainbows 🤩
Thanks! The scenery is what really makes it. It’s still there when the fishing’s bad!

Thanks for that ,also enjoying your fly tying ,just starting to get back into some basic ties .cheers Tim,yea the cat3 flies are great.
Yes the 10 foot rod packs some grunt
Hey mate is that first pool the bypass?
Not sure, I just know it as the pool below Wadells

How do you set up your indicator?

you still making videos?
All commercially tired flies come from the same place even category 3!!

Terrible casting and bad line control quite shocking really
