I haven't had a crack for ages been away workin, gunna be home soon. So I'll be out fishing regardless of the winter weather!

Detoll, baby oil and bit of water all mixed up works a treat on the mozzies! Not sure bout the flies though.

So who's keen to volunteer for the strike&hook demo on hook removal??

Hey pj nice fish! Was that 1 of 4 fish for the session? What fly were you using?

Though I better jump on the wagon and post a pic, few crays I got on a good mornings fishin! Will have to post a pic of the pig power house kingie I'm gunna catch in a few months time???

Southie's got a good point there bit to slender to be trevally! I'd put my money on kings

Ah dunno what sort of fly u would call this but it's one of the first I tied made it out if duck feathers on a #10 hook

Well for all the traditionalists and stake burners this mornin I finaly got my first fish on a propper fly! As follows....

Got 18 good sized tommies and few for snapper/mulloway bait I was happy there was another boat pulled up next to me and didn't catch a thing so I was doin some thing write! And. Na I wasn't at Tennyson I'm down the SE ATM

If this works this is the gent fly I tied, it's just a heap of cotton thead on a #16 hook it was something I come up with one night spare of the moment thing my fly tying is a bit ruff but I'm learning

Do fish caught on a fly rod with a baited hook still count as fly fished? Just wondering cos had a good day on the tommies they would only take live gents not the little gent flys I pre tied. If it counts then these would be my first fish on a fly rod? Would post photo but can't work out how?
