The Biggs boys are at it again!! Perhaps some "training" for the Trout Classic in November?
Nick Biggs and his son Robert found some good fish this past weekend at Gubu Dam. Two beautiful brown trout of 49 and 55cm, and over a dozen rainbows between the two of them.
After all this wet weather, why not stretch your fly line at one of the AFFC waters. Maden and Mnyameni are a bit off-colour but Gubu is great.
Don't forget to send in your entry form for the AFFC TROUT CLASSIC.
