WRITTEN BY TOM SUTCLIFFE
āIf you know the upland country halfway between Rhodes and Maclear, where the Naudeās Nek Pass just about touches the clouds, then you know some of the best trouting country God put on this fine planet. It is high altitude grassland, cold, sparse and remote, threaded throughout with mountain streams, all swift and clear and full of the promise of trout.”
