5/11 -- GOOD

"The Lower Mckenzie has been steady in producing some fine native redsides. The top producer this week has been the mighty Mega Prince. The river has continued to drop to very fishable levels and we should begin to enjoy “normal angling conditions.” The forecasted warmer weather the next few days should increase insect activity and perhaps produce some results for both surface and sub surface anglers."
