This is part 2 of my fly fishing trip to New Zealand's North Island.
To avoid Cyclone Gabrielle, I moved to the Taupo region (sheltered a bit by the mountains to the East).
I found the rivers into Lake Taupo were high but still quite clear.
As my expectation was for rain and unfishable rivers, this was not too bad.
