    Why would you want to shoot an eel Toby?
    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

    We use to shoot them with our bow and arrow. Drop a dead goat in the stream and use a spotlight at night. Great fun!!

    Minding my own business when there was a hollo from the ridge yelling out "DAD"

    I replied with a shot but could only here the words "DAD"

    I ran downstream about a km and got visual and could here what PT was yelling out. The nephews and there mum are moving to Aussie. So race home to say goodbye.

    On the way I had a few flicks with the lure and landed a fat 3lber

    Toby a rainbow is an optical and meteorological phenomenon that is caused by both reflection and refraction of light in water droplets in the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky. It takes the form of a multicoloured arc. In a double rainbow, a second arc is seen outside the primary arc, and has the order of its colours reversed, red facing toward the other one. This second rainbow is caused by light reflecting twice inside water droplets.

    I caught this few weeks ago not today, but its worth sharing... Caught 3 more same sized (1 every week for the past month) over the weekend free time.... been having a blast fishing fresh water after so many years of not doing it.

    Managed to pull out a solid size Tench too... not sure how to cook it tho probably will go on the BBQ
