Great stuff Flutts, BB is operating ^Q^ ^Q^ ^Q^

I agree on the marlin O/ O/ I don't understand why someone would want to kill such a beautiful fish and only because he wants to stand next to it for a pic and show off. 0*\

We have them here RP. The Twaite Shad Alosa fallax and the Allis Shad Alosa alosa.

I used to make my own rods ant tie my own flies when I was a lad I'll have you know. ;-) First ever fish I caught was a six and a half pound (Sea) Bass when I was seven years old (needed help to land it though).

Mostly fished Salmon & Trout on the rivers and streams nearby, but gave it up in favour of birding.
