    Brilliant Chris
    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

    Good shit Chris, me and the old boy went out last Saturday to the middle ground and caught our limit in a matter of an hour, moved to 5 spots to try and change it up but constant stream of 35-40cm snaps.
    Reckon we must have thrown 30-40 legal ones back once we had our limit.
    They are prolific at the moment.

    Good opportunity to stock the freezer now while they're there. Been trying to sort a distance casting rig ,last night was another trial.Little mod;s needed & looks like its good to go now,was working last night but with a little problem now sorted.
    Now have a distance cast running rig with a 1.2m -1.5m trace ,with these sort of results.

    Nice one.
    Do you freeze then glaze?
    I find gilled and gutted then frozen and glazed keeps better than fillets.

    I gill & gut Kahawai then into twin packs for smoking VC . Snapper I fillet & put into snap-lock bags ,easier to get the air out of them to stop any freezer burn etc.Leave skin on fillets seems to help too. Generally cut the fillets into 3 pieces ,larger fish 4 or 5 bits .
    3 more 1.5 -2.0 kg this morning freezer getting fullish now.
