The Manatainoka is a 20 minute drive from Massey near the town of Pahiatua (home of the area's only micro-brewery). It's one of the local rivers in the area I hadn't fished yet. I headed out after a frustrating day at work as our campus network was not functioning correctly. Amazing how dependent we all are on the Internet.
The weather turned foul today and I only had an hour on the river. Through this torrential downpour, I was able to land a single smallish (16") brown trout while fishing near town. I hadn't caught very many brownies on the North Island so it of course it was a treat for me. Another beautiful piece of water: so many rivers - so little time..
One more day to go.
