Oh I didn't know you were a fellow deer hunter...good to see you taking advantage of all that Dartmouth has to offer. Guessing the carry out wasn't too far if you've taken a whole sambar! It actually was a fair trip out....halfway through i was thinking pretty silly move when it was raining ice. I ...

I don't know why they keep the Port Jacksons, maybe they let them go when they are finished fishing, or maybe they eat them, I reckon you would have to be desperate. Cheers. Ango.

I understood a fisherman's wife's job was to beat them on the rocks.....until the freezer got invented, which did the same job.

I knew it would be low tide so wasn’t really expecting much but there were huge fish swimming in shoals right up to the beach. You could almost scoop them out with a net.

Never fished the lake, but drove past it last weekend and did a spot of fishing in one of the tributaries. As usual, plenty of small trout about, but couldn't find the much bigger fish I had sighted in the early summer, so had to be content with harvesting 30kg+ of venison. Often see a car or two pa...
