A Western Lakes Adventure

A Western Lakes Adventure and Ten Tips to Live By by Tim Feely

E

ach January for the last few years I have been fortunate to have backpacked into the Western Lakes to fish some of the more remote areas of Tasmania that don’t see too many fishermen. A good mate called Nigel Meek ventures in with me for three days exploring pristine country looking for wild fish. We watch the weather closely in mid-January, waiting patiently for a big high-pressure system to develop over Western Australia and watch it gradually move toward Tasmania. These systems usually bring two to three days of blue sky, moderate Northerly winds and warm temperatures.

Rocks on the edges of the lake make for a perfect polarioding platform
