Fri 12 October, Lake Opuha

Managed to sneak a couple of hours at the inlet end (Eric's corner) between 3 and 5pm.  This was a "minor" time on the solunar calendar.  Lots of wind chop, the wind direction was up the lake. Didn't see a fish, but some some "mud puffs" and a tail swirl, until after 4:30.  A small trout, about 500g, swimming in a channel through weeds.  Fished to it but slapped a weed-infested Woolly Bugger right on top of it. Scattered. Really gauche handling. Fished a selection of streamers; a yellow Dorothy, and Bruce Keys red Killer (which I lost) besides the weighted green Bugger. Walked up the river (Opuha?) a wee way too-nothing. Dreadful weather Saturday 13th.
