+1 and I've got my main worker off sick , going to be a long day !

It was grate to catch up with the boys down the lake. The bush hunting was hard going with a lot of wind fall in places and still very dry under foot even though they had a bit of rain and snow before we came in.






A big thanks to the all boys evolved.

Not alot to add really except the menu wasn't bad @tikka brought his amazing venny jerky, @Munsey steak to die for, @mikee and his fish, bacon and my very first beer on friday night, @Antsman and his toasted bacon muffins @veitnamcam and his rocket fuel stew and wonderful salmai.

I won't mention the name of the bloke who packed a handful of jerky and a hunk of salmai for grazing on later in the day, only to carefully leave them on the table at the hut

Don't let GM fool ya with his broken down middle age man talk, he lead most of the time setting a pace that had me sweating and puffing. He yarned and made for fantastic company in the scrub.Saturday saw both of us stopping for a blow more regularly but at the end of the day I'm pretty sure GM still had another few K's in his tank where as mine was running on fumes.

We all felt for Munsey and Antsman who put in some very hard yards, and to see the smiles on thier faces as you handed them a cold one on Sat evening you knew they had had a hell of a work out. A huge thanks to all of you guys for sharing your knowledge not only on how but also on where to hunt. I learnt a hell of alot and it made for a very happy and relaxed Stingray that returned to civlization.

Again a huge thanks to Mikee for transporting us all up the lake and back again, and to Vietnamcam for organising and the blokes that came shared of themselves told yarns,stories and made it the epic trip away.

Cheers
Stingray.

I think the secret is the Vitasport in the drink bladder. Big thanks to @cambo for that. Seems to make my very withered pins recover better and stops the cramping up of the really stuffed left thigh. Still not great on anything over a gentle gradient but getting there.

Love hunting bush like this looking for sign and broadleaf trees to head for? Except when it is like cornflakes

Guys it was my pleasure to deliver ya'all to the hut, I will be a starter for next time too.

And to anyone eles thinking of organising OR going to one of these things, DO IT you will regret it if you don't.


I did learn that you should always aim at the bit bit though, eh Cam.

The big bit is easier and more certainer ha ha ha ha

And.......................I have just heard the fishing has really kicked off
