Patchy, at best. North East (Geehi, Khoban, Indi, etc) reports are
poor. Goulburn catchment - improving. Goulburn itself is RS due to
works in the pondage. Small streams go well if you catch them at the
right time - not easy - I'm having another crack this afternoon.
Free flowing Streams have been up and down a lot with unseasonally
heavy rain (good - at last :).
I've heard there were good hatches of midge on Jindabyne (Big
mountain lake :) and am looking forward to a first hand report from
some guys who've been up there in the last week in the next day or
two. Will post anyhting of interest.
