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.

yeah slapped is the right

Wed, 2012-01-18 18:10

yeah slapped is the right word, I've now lost my sunnies and have 2 cuts on the face courtesy of a farewell kiss from the bill across the cheek. The short length was 255cm which puts it at around 150kg, in the heat of the moment after a 1 hour fight I called it for high 100's. Just watched the video, pretty funny and some good memories. Raised another 20 minutes later but was sort of glad after 3 strikes it didn't hook up. Next pressy to myself- a proper Black Magic harness, the regular gimble belts just don't do it. 

Good thing I won those sunnies last month, very timely.

Good stuff Tim. Wondered what you have been up to of late.

Congrats Tim....hope there's some photos of the encounter or it could be argued that it never happened 

Posting a photo could score you a new pair of sunnies in the POTM comp!!

and a lost pair off sunnies for that. And you were stupid enough to want to do it again!!

My arms would be jelly after a hour fight with just a gimble belt. Weak as water I know but rugby has claimed my shoulders.

Cant wait for the video
