    Has he got a hook in his finger?
    Nice catch.
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    One lucky, fat kingfish from a few days ago. I'm pretty controlled about how many I kill. If there's kingfish in the freezer, they get released. This one was literally two meals away from being turned in to sashimi/BBQ steaks/kebabs.

    School hols, my folks are up. Dad and me out for a quick fish , in rather Shit weather (the pic doesn't tell the true story, in the Shit stuff I was a bit busy to take pics.....). However, got a feed for us and the neighbors.

    Very interesting 30mins or so, a 1 to 1.2m kingie was nosing our burley pot. I dropped pillies, squid, 3x lures and a bloody live Trev on its nose - nothing. I guess they don't get big by being dumb. Awesome to see .


    Would have liked to have caught it though........

    I would have suggested you dive on top of it with a knife in hand but then realised that a Kingi that size would have outweighed you! Take a slasher next time.

    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

    That is true

    This is the second time I've had it happen. Great to see but really wanted it.
    Today had a flash of inspiration - I need a spear gun......

    Your challenge is to design a semi auto or perhaps a pump action speargun.
