Walking, fishing, packrafting routes?
Posted: Tue 16 Jun, 2015 11:21 amHi folks
Over 30 years ago years my walking buddy and I walked up through the platue to the east of St Clair from Mt Ida easteward and then back around to Derwent Bridge via Travellers Rest. I was mostly intrested in trout fishing back then, but it inspired a lifetime love of wilderness and walking that is still with me. Only in the last year have I returned to Tassie and walked the South Coast Track and The Overland and am now looking for a trip that would combine my love of flyfishing and walking and I am hoping to take my packraft also. Would love a trip of 7 to 10 days that takes in a good mix of walking, fishing and perhaps some packrafting (even if it is as a fishing vessel), Could any of you well travelled trout fishingTassie folk suggest a route or area worth doing or investigating? Looking for adventure but nothing too hard core as I am not a fit as I was 30 years ago. I am open to suggestion as to the best time of year too. Thanks in advance
