Derwent Reservoir Today 07/05/09

Never posted here before so hello everyone!

Just wanted to see what people are making of the fishing up at the derwent at the moment? I went up and found the only bit of shelter today at the Bay of Plenty and only got one knock on a green montana. Fortuantely I landed the fish and it turned out to be a personal best so dead chuffed, 8 lb 12 oz rainbow.

Have heard there are a few good fish around up there at the moment. Anyone else caught any good ones?

Best wishes

Andy
