    Dream Fish

    What is your dream fish you would like to catch???
    Mine would have to be a big blue or black marlin, followed closely by a nice yellow fin.
    One of these would be a fish of a lifetime also. My PB on Kings is about thirty. And was with Lance who is the skipper of the boat below at White island.

    Used to feed em hoki heads all day in the season
    Some of them may have had hooks in them:rolleyes:
    Its almost mesmerizing watching them take bait in crystal clear water from 6m directly above.
    They accelerate from 5 knots cruising alongside the boat to Fuck knows how fast in a couple of meters turn side on as they take it and you see the brilliant flash of colour off there flanks in the sun then immediately dive out of sight.
    I could literally do it all day.

    The ones you see caught on a line even the records are nowhere near as big as they get

    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
