    Just spent all day on the Mohaka teaching my wife to spin fish.

    Despite fishing some good pools and runs, and her being a fast learner, no Fish were seen let along landed

    Can't believe we spent all day fishing and didn't get a single hook up ......... Must be loosing my touch.

    Might try the Tuki tomorrow.

    Cheers
    Pete

    Might take you up on that offer @Dundee.

    I'm sure once she has landed her first fish she will be away.

    Hahahaha

    I'm not sure she will want to taste any trout.

    She's probably more your catch and release type Girl.

    Maca everything is on a lean. Were you on the piss as well?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Rushy I have given up trying to get photo in the correct orientation, if there's a trick to it I have yet to learn, to correct it would take me hours, so lock your screen and turn your tablet 90 degrees

    @Maca49

    It's probably caused by the angle of the dangle, so either adjust the angle or the dangle.

    That or your slipping off the edge of the earth in which case there's nothing more you can do.

    Thanks Pete I'll spin the camera while I'm snapping! @Pete do you belong to a pistol club in the bay? If so do they have any retired guys shooting mid week?
