Hopper fishing in North Queensland

Great fun!

For you trout'es out there that need a hit. I was fishing at my favorite tarpon spot and as I was retrieving my normal tarpon fly I noticed a few Tarpon jumping out of the water!. As much as I was enjoying the fishing sub surface I thought I would try my dragon fly pattern but I had forgotten to bring it!. So after a quick look at my fly selection I decided to try a hopper pattern. Amazing it worked very well! I was getting more hits, landed as many fish and it was visually better, great fun!
