Born in QLD

First fish that comes to mind was a bloody great flat head (i was very young, prob 30 odd years ago, so it probably wasn't all that great) from memory we were camping at Cotton Tree.

Can't remember the rod but was on old plastic kids Alvey Reel, maybe that started my love of alvey's also

QUEENSLANDER!!!!!! :)
Brissie Boy, went travelling for 4 years, london, paris, madrid,berlin, copenhagen,new york,houston, and a lot of places in between, and in the end decided there isnt a better place to live than Good old Brissie .

First fish 1968 , Flathead from in front of coolangatta SLSC on a cane rod I rebuilt myself and an old wooden spool alvey.

[land_based]

At Noosa late on a winter night fishing in the canals, hooked one on my handline, and just ran the opposite way to the water pulling the line :)

Is that the game that has to go for two hours to make sure everyone of the 350 players each gets a kick?? And the same game where you get rewarded for missing the goal with a point?? ;D ;D ;D :-?
Although I have to confess to being an imported Queenslander, born in Canberra who's first fish was a flathead caught off Broulee on the NSW south coast, I CHOSE to move to the greatest state in Australia to live so its QUEEEEEENSLAAAAANDER for me

Cheers and beers (XXXX of course 8-))

Rhys

what game is that Rhys???

Is that the one where it starts with a balls up and then deteriorates from there and then after the game they do each others wives??? LOL

[revs57]

;D ;D ;D good comeback Greg!!! #But doin' the job on each others wives is better than groping a mates daughter!!!!

Loved the idea of playing long enough til each of the 350 players get a kick...that's a goodun too...but I thought football was to be played with the foot...not chucka ball.

BTW I have had the operation and I too believe we live in the best State in the land of Oz....I now no longer believe they send the reject bent bananas south and do enjoy the catch me dump me game now i've learned the rules (THE REF MAKES THEM UP AS HE SEES FIT), but when it comes to State of OrigiN

QUEENSLANDER...GO MAROON!!!

[StevenM]

Rhys,

Good on ya mate. I dont mind the mexicans comming over the border as long as when they get here they support Queensland. The state was good enough for you to live here so thats the way you should be.

All those turn coats that are living here and support the other whatever, Go home if its that great. Busses and planes etc go all day.

Cheers

Steven

BORN IN QUEENSLAND
LIVE IN QUEENSLAND
WORK IN QUEENSALND
FISH IN QUEENSLANDNSW SUCKS

[Gazza.Boyne]

Queenslander through & through, grew up in Brissy, fished as long as I can remember.
Travelled, worked & fished around Australia & have settled down on Central Queensland coast.

GO THE MAROONS

[hardb8]

Queenslander to the bone.Whiting on handline in Bramble bay Redcliffe.Great memories and the begining of an ongoing passion. [smiley=laola.gif]

[tiges]

I'm of New South Welsh origin. Born in Milton/Ulladulla hospital, but grew up in the Kiama/Minnamurra area. First fish was at 6 yrs of age, a bream caught at Repton on the Bellingen river whilst on holidays. I remember telling my dad it was like a little machine gun on the end of my line. Parents moved to the Sunny coast about 15 yrs ago. After visiting them every X'mas for a few yrs, thought I'd join the rest of the blow-ins. Pretty hard to beat the quality of living up here, I really haven't looked back. Surf's better back down the NSW sth coast, but the diversity of quality fishing available up here is way better in comparison. Support the Brissy Lions, The Bulls, The Reds, The Roar etc. But when it comes to Rugby League I'm a Blues and Dragons fan thru and thru. Some things just can't be changed.

[fishlady]

Born in Syd but first memories of fishing and running from the tide are under the old Hornibrook Bridge for endless whiting at about 3yrs with my Pop. Great memories and photos....which i havent scanned to show you. Ha the good ol days

First fish was a full house of mackerel (6 feathers) on a handline in 1956 from Blackpool north Pier UK....I remember an old man with a dew drop on his nose helped me pull 'em up ;D Filled an onion sack that day and was hooked for life.

Married a Mex with dual nationality (born Frankston Vic to Pom parents but raised in the UK)

First fish here........a 6 kilo catty (what else?) off sandgate pier on shark tackle ;D

[Owen]

Born in NSW, but moved to QLD in my teens.
Can't remember whether my first fish was a perch in the creeks around Rosebank, or a bream at Ballina.
Might even have been an eel. We used to think they were great fun on a little hand line ;D ;D ;D

cheers,
Owen
