    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Its wrong.... I was home with quota for two before their bit time on Saturday.... my best ever fishing days have been on the "worst" days on the Moari fishing calendar.

    Nobody can forecast the fishing mate dont buy into any of that crap, generally speaking in my experience (which granted is not shore fishing) big tides are better and change of light at both ends of the day is best just like hunting.
    The all time best way to catch fish is to go fishing.
