FlyLife | 120 Spring 2025
In this issue, a personal journey of fly fishing and motherhood intertwine in a tale of tangled lines and patient discovery. The salt beckons in Western Australia’s Pilbara, delivering a DIY permit breakthrough, while the search for the perfect flats skiff on the east coast plays out on skinny waters.
Tasmania provides its own variety with trophy trout on Lake Crescent’s highland waters, and a celebration of remote mountain huts highlighting the quiet legacy of these cherished shelters. And a thoughtful look at growing older reflects on the deeper rhythms of angling life.
New Zealand continues to inspire, with refined Euro nymphing on North Island rivers and a first-time South Island experience chasing browns through wild, undulating landscapes. Silver trevally take centre stage, proving both technical and thrilling in New Zealand’s shifting coastal currents.
Further afield, the Farasan Banks form the backdrop to a tale of resilience and exploration.
