Fly Fishing the Tumut River via Kokopelli Packrafts with Pat Ryan and Chris Russell

Instead of our usual Tumut River drift boat mode of transport, Pat and Chris run down the Tumut on Kokopelli packrafts in search of iconic Snowy Mountains trout. Pat focuses on fishing relentlessly, and Chris enjoys the relaxing trundle down the Tumut and catches a few fish along the way. The pair share some laughs, come up with new ways to fish from a packraft and enjoy fly fishing and paddling the Tumut River in all of its glory.
