    Didn't land this one.The biggest I've landed was 5.8lb this looks bigger than that but chances of catching it a slim to zero, I definitely wasn't picking it up....

    Catch Any Trout Today?

    Thanks to @jasec got onto some nice rainbows this arvo. Dropped one and landed another at around 4.5lb. Salmon orange flesh with a guts full of weed! Go figure.
    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

    Nice catch there @bomber I have seen that bastard in your pool also. Just takes one slip up to take the lure.
    I see you are catching up with the photograph skills I taught you as well.

    Got a weight for that trout?

    Nice fish Bomber.
    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
