A Note from Matt Jones (@flyfishingnz):

“While we were bouncing up a rough riverbed track on route to our actual destination, another river about 15miles further upstream, we spotted a trout feeding in a large spring creek that had popped up since a previous flood in the large valley we were in. 

My brother and i jokingly suggested we should have an attempt to catch it without actually getting out of the truck. Well, i came close! Getting a half-decent hookset, the fish didn’t stay on but made for a rather entertaining clip!”Matt Jones
