Probably because posts are no good without pics - I know I'm always "too busy" fishing to take pics!

And personally, my fishing trips are usually spontaneous with a couple of mates ;)

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.. it is sad but we do get out a lot and it's not always to fish (even if the rod is always closeby) sometimes the fish just aren't playing the catching game :(

But you plan it and I'll be there :cool:

speaking of fishing, i bought some braid off ebay the other day

i couldnt help myself, 300m of 6lb for $12 so i bought. Recieved it yesterday, damn it feels nice, havent been fishing with it yet but plan on testing it out on the weekend.

i tell ya, the rrp of 300m of fireline is upwards of $80....BARGAIN.

I sold my rods as a twelve year old after catching a leather jacket. I like tasteless basa and you can't catch that in local waters . You see those sticklers " I fish and I vote" ?

I want one, "I don't fish or vote" :D

Yep it is because of overfishing in WA (Perth area) that you can't catch fish like you once could.

I have seen Trevally (as a child I watched as they were landed on the beach at a destination undisclosed) as big as the King fish the three of you are holding
