The wild and untouched landscape of west Gippsland is where I go for wild stream trout in Victoria. Hiking, wading and bush bashing through dense forest to find that one spot that no one has ever found is what keeps me fishing, as well as of course, that trophy buck.
The challenges this type of fishing exposes you to, is both physical and mental. To be able to go the extra distance, whilst tricking that fish into smashing your lure is what keeps me going back for more.
Whether it be deep winding into big eddies, casting under logs, high sticking over shallow pools or sight casting feeding trout; the MX48 is able to do it all.
This little minnow has caught me some outstanding fish and will always be a stand out in my trout arsenal.
