    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 .

    Well done Chris.
    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

    Catch Any Trout Today?

    Spotted a couple of nice browns today while taking the dog for a swim. Might take the rod down tomorrow as well.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Catch Any Trout Today?

    Sick of the bloody kids, off up the creek for a fish. Tutaikuri trout are wierd. No classical stuff here just a bit of an ambush in a side pocket. Warm water, dumb trout. http://youtu.be/WgzuvnyXYhE
    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
