If you want to advertise your products/services on the #1 troutfishing website, click on the page above An update on Didymo The invasive Didymo weed has now been found in 15 river systems throughout the South Island including such famous fisheries as the Oreti, Waitaki, Hakataramea, Buller, Aparima, Wairau Rivers. The latest discovery this week has been in the beautiful Cobb River in Nelson. I strongly recommend you leave your felt soles at home as it is likely that the weed was first brought to NZ in the felt of wading boots or waders. Even one single drop of water is sufficient to transfer Didymo to a new area. See the Fish & Game website for how to treat your fishing gear when moving to a new river system. We now wear studded rubber-soled wading boots as these can be dried completely where felt stays wet for weeks. For those who don't know what Didymo is, see the Fish & Game website. Suffice to say it will ruin your fishing, as nymphing/wet fly is impossible. Even with dry fly, you will need toclean the weed off your line/fly every cast. And if you hook a fish, you will be playing 1-2 kilos of weed as well - Yuk! Read more here Didymo Information |
