    Not as easy as you'd think. Nana walking the foxy isn't too impressed when you hook her mutt and the fish get schooled up real quick that close to civilisation.

    No messing around to go back so hopefully not too tired and should recover well. I think I saw it again this morning in the same spot.
    That was cool Mate.

    Spent a couple of days down on a well known Waikato stream, fish were still hitting the surface so we were pretty stoked.

    Mate if you flick back through the photos of Brownies on here you will see they are not unique to this fish.
    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

    I reckon they are two different fish. The bottom one is a rainbow. Then again I could be talking through a hole in my head.
