Yup had them on board Mark, but Heath didnt know how hard these fish pulled!
I dont use em but i certainly pay the price!

Heath, glad you had a good trip mate. The conditions have been great. Here's a pic of what we do to protect our fingers. A bit of old tyre tube does the trick. Helps stop the unstoppables too.
Cheers, Mark.

Yes, the Captain didn't pull them out, till I was whinging about my sore fingers.
Payback for stealing his Trout

Dont forget to throw those rods out when you get home heath and load up with handlines!!
Felt sorry for ya to not catch a trout, so i thought i had better left that one for you and fatten him up!
