Got down to st Leonard's late in the afternoon.

my friend brought his rig in, and went to grab a lure....which were all at home...

My mate desperately ran to his van in search of a metal, while I tried to make a bait rig look like a plastic of some description.

My friend lost a fish after it wrapped around the bucket, and I scored one whipping my bait lure thru the school.

Mcmonier, that "Bait Lure" is pure resourcefulness and brilliance. I am impressed, most would have conceded and , , , , then not caught.
Nice catch too. Well done

Cheers, Bugatti

Yeah, of course I know the thread is over a year old, Silly , , , , I was the one that dug it up


"Get with the times man", I thought I was with the times, not sure if you are, did you have snooze

Let me fill you in:

*Sorting of the Site
*Snapperhead was made a Mod
*Some members scratching there heads
*Too much swearing, bad comments
*Kimtown, 4litres & Purple5teve Hollies for a week
*More scratching of heads
*Few words bantered
*All settled
*re-tyred was made a Mod too

And I think we are up to speed



I saw mcmonier was online last night, checked out his work and was impressed with the young bloke. Especially with his improvisation of making a lure from scratch with bait since he left his lures at home. So I thought I'd share as other members might find it interesting and helpful. Plus mcmonier hasn't posted since Jan 2018, so I though with these times they are a chang'n, replying to his post, might encourage him to start posting again.

So it is quite fortuitous of you to have made that comment "Get with the times man" , , , , you might need to wind your watch forward from "self ingratiating comments at someone's expense" , , , , to , , , , " constructive posting"


Tomorrow I can help you with "multi-quoting"

Till then,
Your Buddy Bugatti

I thought he was joking as well . I don’t think he needed a lecture of your achievements I am surprised you didn’t put up some stupid pictures and comments as well.

With some of the "joking" that happens it's fine. Add in some other "joking" that happens with the snide remarks as an underlying "having a serious go" at a guy. And some joking that is clandestinely "poking the bear". And so forth. Some make comments that are outright derogatory BUT THEN use the "I was joking" defence


I just can't tell anymore with the haze of all of the above. And to haze it up even more with the pro-joke and anti-joke factions/campaigning.
