When I first joined the club the Ohau Channel was a popular destination. The season opens on the 1st October and the trout move through from Lake Rotoiti to Lake Rotorua on their spawning run. As well as this the smelt can be prolific in the channel and this can make for some exciting fishing.
Check out the Eastern Fish and Game website , all the information is there.
I spoke to local guide Harvey Clark today and he gave me a heads up on where to go , so put the date in the diary and we will send another email closer to the time.
