More Yabbies
Submitted by jayce on Fri, 2013-11-15 09:30
Well being that i couldnt get away for a fish last break i decided i would catch a feed of yabbies.
Got more than i needed but the dams needed a bit of a clean out as they where all big bastards and need some to start breeding again.
Few pics of them and the photos dont really do them justice.

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.
