yeah adam im not gonna lie, an amatuer move taking the trigger, a mate caught it and thought it was a leather jacket. wasnt till i felt the armour and skin lol that we all started askin the question? um is it edible haha? we never found out luckily by the sound of it...

 

the depths to fish are 40-100m weather permitting

 

one thing i did notice up there was the definitive bite times which were obvious to us by the end of the third day. we were getn messy each night and sleeping in till lunch time with not a care in the world knowing an arvo bash was gonna pay off...plus the other boat that was with us went to my marks early morning and got bugger all :)

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
