my nephew got his first ever dhu today out with his dad and a mate behind ffb, he knows i am on f/w and asked me to put up a pic for him.
not to keen on holding the live ones by the looks of things. returned no probs
well done brandon and there will be many more to come buddy.
also while out there today dad and jamie done some trolling and picked up this tuna, im not sure what type so if someone can id by this pick would be great.
it the first tuna for the boys on the recent rebuilt boat so they were stoked as well.
i woosed out today and stayed home making my bench and some sinkers, sooking cause the wether was shity...apparantly
they called past my house on the way home to show off....pricks!!
cheers ron

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.
