    A good fish as well Sean
    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

    Be careful with those little fellas @Sean if you plan to release them. They will pick up all sorts of problems if you leave them out of the water, especially letting them sit on the bank. Their mucous cover is easily lost and will lead to infection and probable death quite quickly. Buy a cheap net (preferably not the ones with knotted mesh) keep them wet for as long as you can, keep handling to and absolute minimum and release them quick smart.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    They certainly are fat Tahr. I can't believe the number of trout that is in the river this year. There is heaps.Not to many browns have been landed yet.
