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

    Yep that is how we roll VC and unfortunately this thread was hijacked by two forum post sluts. Check out how many Gibo has done today.

    A groups charted Seabird Charters but is seemed a little expensive and I don't like fishing with 20 other people on the same spot. So reckon a flotilla in October is good for the big early snaps

    Well my name is Daniel, I'm reasonably green when it comes to forums, I'm 23, grown up on farms shooting rabbits, possum's and goats ect. I enjoy Hunting & Fishing alike, love getting out there and bringing home the bacon! then throwing it into the pan and making fantastic meals! There is nothing more rewarding than eating what you catch!
    I'm just starting to really get into some real hunting, Not overly confident in my bush skills yet, but as all things its all about getting out there and doing it until you are comfortable. I hunt for the freezer, mainly going after delicious sika, fellow and young goats.
    My cannon of choice is a Miroku .308 hitting the pin on 150gr federal with Sharp Hunter HII3-9X40 optics, does the job for most things.
    Can't wait to get out into the rangers here to try my luck and take advantage of what Nelson has on offer!

    Cheers
    Daniel
