    I was very fortunate to spend a week away on school camp, this is one of two fish caught during my trip. Both on Humpy Blowfly dries, amazing location with crystal clear water.
    It was difficult looking after the kids when I knew that I had fishing like this on my doorstep all week.

    If that eel grabbed a little midget bugger like you Dundee it would almost pull you under.

    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

    It looks pretty damned grumpy about being a fish out of water.

    Sweet cicada session.
    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
