Flangies donations
I have had a good suggestion from a long term Fishwrecked member, which I would like to put forward to members.
Young Flangies (James) had a real up and down night last weekend when he landed a great 18 kilo mulloway while fishing in the Fishwrecked Junior Landbased competition, only to find out in all of the excitement that his tacklebag, containing "150$ in soft plastics, lines leaders, rigs,lost knifes and plyers too" had disappeared.
I am wondering if members would be interested in donating some tackle to the young bloke.
I have a fair few packets of soft plastics and a Shimano low profile baitcaster I am happy to donate.
All the best, Colin Hay

Woah thanks for the notion colin :)
BUT i have replaced everything as of yesterday, i found my rig bag yesterday morning someone put it in my back zip side of my school bag :s didnt even look there. Then my girlfriend (most awesome girlfriend) Took me to BCF and spent 150$ as an early xmas present so i extended my plastics, got some new leader, tackle bag and expanded my hooks.
2 knifes still missing but ill get some new ones come xmas, till then its mums (DONT TELL HER!) kitchen knife :p
I was just about to post saying i found it when i read this post. I wasnt home yesterday so i didnt get the chance.
Thanks anyway :)

ALSO that 'rays outdoors'
ALSO that 'rays outdoors' shop next to bcf absolutely sucks. didnt have anything there and most of the stuff was a no name brand that did every form of fishing gear; rods,reels,line,hooks,buckets just to name a few.

Hi Jes, What sort of horses are they?
Is she into showjumping? As expensive hobbies go, horses make fishing look cheap.

That's fantastic Jess
She must be bloody good. Did you get her to find some cheap fishing gear for you while she was away?
