    yesteryear fishing gallery

    At Heaven's gate a soldier stood,
    his story ready to tell,
    St Peter said, 'no need my son all is understood,
    Go right in cos you've already served your time in Hell'

    Sorta makes you wince when you see that many murray cod strung up. Though in those days I doubt much waste would have happened.

    I admire the bloke that caught a 5.13 mt great white on line.

    A gold medal performance taking a Tiger on an alvey. Thanks for the link. I could remember being told stories of such feats but you always wonder. Well these pics back up the claims. My family have told me of catches of Yellow Tailed Kingfish being caught behind Millaquin Sugar Mill in the Burnett River, Bundaberg

    Great stuff I reckon.
    Here's a couple of my Poppa.
    The first is after someone did not close the clasps on his tackle box on the old jetty at Wardell and the second is having a smoko at Flatrock between Ballina and Lennox I think.
    I should have some of my other Poppa and Nanna too somewhere.

    Gees I miss them
    I intend on living for-ever....so far so good

    Hey manchild, interesting poem on your signature, i've heard that before but it went -

    A soldier stood at the pearly gates
    And to st peter he did tell
    One more soldier reporting for duty sir
    I've served my time in hell.

    Interesting adaption, i wonder which one is the original.

    Swindells.

    I've got photo's from when I was a kid when we used to be guilty of this too - I spose we just didnt know any better.

    Glad our thinking has changed, so my generation and others to follow can have a go
