    They are in the nz educational system so can count and spell better in Moari than English.

    I don't care what its called I will call it a trap, I just want my kids to catch some eels and have some fun doing it.

    Dead possum in the shallows and the old man's slasher was always fun. Caught a lot of eels that way.

    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

    It will catch eels and looking at the size of the mesh you may score some Koura as well..
