    Catch Any Trout Today?

    There was a feature in our local paper (herald tribune) only days ago, where a well loved labrador swam in a backwater here before convulsing and becoming paralysed before getting euthanised at the vet. I hate seeing animals suffer.

    That is terrible. Someone smarter than me needs to figure out how to get the Fiordland rain to those parts of the country that need it

    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

    Last nights fish ,450mm but quite skinny .Not sure what was the problem ,the ecosystem in the area seemed to be in good condition. The local mining company has done extensive planting along the river.Perhaps it was just a growth phase .
