about us

A social group of dedicated fly fishers who are passionate about fly fishing in the tropical north of Australia and equally as passionate about the close camaraderie this sport brings. This passion and dedication led to the creation of the NT Flyfishers Social Mob blog site; an interactive and creative outlet where everyone can share our wonderful fly fishing adventures and link into the “after fishing” social events we enjoy in this incredible part of the world.

TODAYS MURDER SCENE..BROUGHT TO YOU BY MACKEREL




Bit of an ominous title from Eugene, but as he said, "..the mackerel murdered the flies.." and anything else in the water.... and here is some of the remains of Michaels (Vinnies) flies on which he  "..missed many and lost a good one.  Got a tally of mackerel, trevally, barracuda and parrot fish..conditions coud not have been nicer"



Vinnie with one of the murderous macs

 ....there were heaps of other fish out there too...
A 50cm tarpon on the 7wt 
plenty of these..all great on the 7wt 

Even a goldie took a double handed stripped fly...

...and you can see how rough it was
Sam was not content with having exploded his Tenkara, he got out the 4wt and had a ball on the smaller fish...

I suspect there will be a lot more on the fishing when the other boats come in....and Tomorrow looks like being better
