Sit down for the weekend with the next episode of Tales From The Fly, this time at Penstock Lagoon.

Penstock is consistently one of the best waters in the Highlands early in the season, and this episode is a good watch if you're planning a trip up there, with plenty of wet fly and streamer fishing along the way.

Needing no introduction, fly fishing at Penstock Lagoon is ever common among anglers in Tasmania - known for both its wet and dry fly options.

How good is that first person perspective? 👀

A GoPro view of a nymph under dry catch on the Meander, with the little dry going down and a nice wild brown on the end.

With the weather warming up across Tassie, this is a technique that's really coming into its own on the rivers, and it's one our clients love.

Spring is a ripper time to be on the water in Tasmania 🎣

Here are some catches from our recent day in the Highlands, with fish coming from the boat on the lake in the morning and from the w**dy shore edges in the afternoon.

That's the beauty of springtime fishing here. Wind on the water, fish up high chasing flies, and plenty of variety whether you're drifting or wading.

Found this little fella out looking for a feed, so we're taking it as a good sign for the fishing 👌

Wildlife encounters are one of the real highlights of our trips, from platypus and birdlife through to the little characters like this one.

If an echidna's anything to go by, it could be a good day on the water...

If you're after a quick look at the best bits of our wet fly masterclass, this short cut pulls out the highlights from two spots in Tassie's Central Highlands, including some good fish 🎣
It runs through rod and reel setup, fly selection, and casting and retrieving along the w**d and grassy edges.
The full masterclass goes more in depth on time of year, weather conditions, additional gear and why we wade.
