Two wheels, one rod

Hey guys,just thought Id jot down a quick G'day and introduce myself.

Im curently a land based fisho, mainly searching out the bream on my trusty old GSXR.As fishing is up there in my top five hobbies,I guess im quite lucky to be able to combine two into the one. Naturaly this reqires a very minimalist approch,and I find it takes my fishing back too the good old days of simplicity and fun. Most of my time over the years has been bait fishing for all sorts,but after a very slow learning curve,Im finally catching bream on softies with reasonable consistancy in the canning. As luck would have it my better half loves the out doors,and she is as keen as myself to get into yakking,so hopefully Ill be Up the creek WITH a paddle soon. lol

To date Ive caught a fair few diffrent types of fish,off the top of my head,Baldies,spanyards,tuna,Queenie or morwong,not sure on that one,pinkies,black snapper,spangled empror,shark,yellowfin bream,flattie,and a notable buff bream that took a mullie, all from steep point. In and around,or closer too the metro Ive caught Black bream,silver bream,whiting,herring,flattie,tailor,mulloway,leather jacket,pike,snook,dart,yellow tail,salmon and of coarse the dreaded blowie.

anyway,cheers guys, I look forward too learning alot from this site.

Sorry about my spelling and punctuation,Im a shocker lol.
