Nine times out of ten, carrying the right gear instead of all the gear is the way to go. Fly fishing guide Mickey Finn shares what he carries on a day out guiding, from drifting the Tumut River to power boat guiding on our Snowy Mountains lakes to walking and wading Kosciuszko National Park's high country rivers and streams. With a simple but effective kit, you too can maximise your days on the water.
