Festive Season Wishes from AF.

[Lucky_Phill]

As a Moderator and contributing member of this site, I would like to wish all members, their families and friends and very safe and happy festive season.

Please be patient at boat ramps, in traffic, with your spouses and kids and other Aussies.

It will be a hot one and that will lend itself to anxiety and frustration.

To all members that have contributed to the forum, thank you for your opinions, offers, experience and reports and thanks to all that participated in the " The Hot Topics " and know that your input is appreciated and valued, whether we agree or not.

To the members that have organised the Meet & Greets throughout the year, thank you for your efforts in bringing together a lot of like minded Aussies that love a beer , a chat and a fish.

To the boys & girls and women that have contributed, thank you and know that you are just as an important member of this site as the next person.

Thanks to the sponsors and advertisers for making it affordable to keep this site running.

A special thank you to the " Long Term Members " who continue to offer great advice, opinions and stories that we all love to share in.

Of course we cannot forget the other Moderators who do not have the best job in the world, but do it for the love of fishing and this site.

Last, but not least.......


To Steve and Eileen ( Mr & Mrs Ausfish ) for everything you have done, without knowing sometimes, for the 116,000 plus registered members and tens of thousands of Guests of this Number One Fishing Forum in Australia.

Again......... stay safe people and enjoy the Summer of 2012.


Cheers LP ><> ><> ><> 8-)

No. Thank you, all the Ausfish team and all the people who contribute. I have, and am still learning alot, from fish hooks to politics. Some days with all the all info on here it makes the brain hurt.

Merry Xmas to all and tight lines.

Merry Xmas all..and thanks Phill.
My oath I love presents BUT only if the giver has made it themselves with their own hands.
A 2 inch long plane made out of a strip of cardboard and 2 fruit box staples for wings is one of the most treasured presents I've ever been fortunate to received.

Say gidday to the eldest grandchild when you see him. He's definitely a one in a million that boy :)

Thanks to all the moderators and members for their input over the last year, and beyond.

Hope you all have a safe and happy Christmas on and off the water.


Chill out and relax.

At the end of the day, all they want for Christams is your presence, not your presents.

Have a merry, merry Christmas. Keep safe on the water over the silly season.

[Axl]

I would also like to wish the members of the Ausfish community a merry xmas:).

The knowledge that comes form the threads here and willingness to share it is second to none (along with the laughs);D.

This year I had the steering on my boat sieze up and thanks but to a thread on this site I had it fixed in a few hours.

Whilst I had the motor off the boat I lifted it two holes to get the anti cav plate skimming across the top of the water instead of under it (again from advice from an Ausfish thread) and has changed the way my rig handles completely.

Be safe everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

[Humdinger]

[Chimo]
