Bastard things

Cubed $13 worth of mulies only to be plagued by these stinking slimey horrible things that smashed all my plastics meant for pinkies. I didn't want to leave as I had a sick 100m+ burley slick. Ended up with only an oriental bonito which is a promising sign as I haven't heard of any in metro for years now

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.

beauno the nicest things to

beau

no the nicest things to catch, but while fishing with whitey i got one on the jig, whitey showed the girls on the boat how good there teeth are!!

flatend out a ally can and placed it in its mouth....chomp...... perfect bite size chunck out of the can,

was a great way to show them not to stick fingers anywhere near the bitey end.

 

pricks of things they are!!!
