That is gorgeous country fella, much nicer than what I have access to.
Congratulate your wife on a good showing.

Just in case some of the site members do not know...35sambar has posted pictures of some of the finest stalking country in Australia.

Very interesting area. Looks like a fun trip. I've been in NSW, Queensland and N. Territory but never in this part of Australia.

There is brown trout but to be honest it’s not the best river for fishing there is a lot of tannen in the water from all the tea tree other similar rivers nearby are a lot better for fishing access to them is difficult but you reap the rewards from that as they are untouched by the general public unless your dedicated! , I thought the best picture was the fact I had a gate opener! Lol !!
