The new season is here!
Welcome to a new-look Reel Life to kick off the new fishing season.
In this issue we hope you'll find all the regional reports, updates, tips and info you need to be primed and ready for October 1.
Remember also that opening falls on a Saturday this season so, as long as the weather Gods smile, there's no reason not to get into it.
If you've been too tied up in the World Cup or other events, it still isn't too late to grab your licence – you can purchase yours through our website at www.fishandgame.org.nz.
Print out the emailed receipt and use that until your proper licence arrives in the post. Most of the Fish & Game regions are predicting a great season ahead so ensure you don't miss out.
And, if you've got friends or family who can't figure out what all the fuss is about when it comes to the excitement surrounding our world-class fishery, point them in the direction of our new mini website – www.fishaway.co.nz .
For those not so familiar with trout fishing, the site aims to make it easy to get a licence, get some gear and give it a go.We hope you can get out on opening day and wish you tight lines for the forthcoming season!
