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.

Corroboree Billabong 2/4/14

We did a trip to Corroboree on Wednesday for an afternoon session.  The water looks really good with lots of water lillies in flower on the flood plains.


Water Lillies 

It wasn't long before the first Toga was landed from in between some lilly stalks.  The water was so clear you could see your fly from the moment it hit the water.


First Toga of the day


Jack's fly in action again

The fishing was fairly slow with not a lot of action apart from Tarpon.   The Toga were caught on wet flies & the hook up rate seems to be a lot better than with surface flies.  Rodgy Dodgy's black fur fly also accounted for numerous Tarpon.

Tarpon were plentiful

Interestingly we spotted 3 dead Toga on the way back to the ramp.  I was wondering if this is due to the high water temperature of around 34 degrees?

Get out & fish, its great therapy!

    Great report Jon and Jack. The real question is "When are we going to see photos of the New White Boat??"
