I am a fan of your wife. She is like a fishing/boat rockstar.

I'll pass that on Dan, thanks! WW Kayaking and fly-fishing are both excellent outlets for a 41 year old "girl" with some adhd and a love of the water! Got to keep her busy!

I just know you guys are going to enjoy this!
After two cancellations due to covid and travel restrictions, these mates (ex! 8O ) went fishing without me! :doh:

The bloke in the Yamaha shirt was fishing with me in 2020 when we boated 102 barra in 5 days! :D

So, I always sneak the net in early to avoid the plunge and run. Any reason the net ain't in and waitin?

Such great fishing vid!

I think the view might be that over active netting loses fish! Barra have an amazing knack of getting away!
