KIDNEY SLAPPER

I bet the female ,makes sure the male has good life insurance, then in court claims it as ,an act of love ..........

Came across this six inch Praying Mantis while dead heading the standard roses yesterday, came across three of them during the morning.. Good to see them too as they help clean up the aphids..

Thank you to all who wrote up a report in December, we hope to see more of your reports and insane adventures in this new year.

awesome ot was just the top blue one that didnt make sense to me...now it does. i can see the fish on the bottom one but side scans all new too me.
thankyou😎

hey samboman i understand the left picture but the blue pics on the right im not familiar with...any chance you could explain....pretty please☺

The top right picture is side scan, the line in the middle is my boat. It then shows the water column to the sea floor and 100m either side of my boat, cant see the school on that one though..  But the bottom right is down scan which is showing fish ( white dots )  18 to 20m deep behind the boat..  

Cheers lads,  The was a few boats around SF.   But it all worked well with the tide running nicely, getting the plastics and jigs down to the fish behind us was easy..  Was a top arvo..  

With great weather forecast i made the tow to Yorkes with a couple of mates, one who is a wizz with a camera..  What a day we had...
Watch in HD
 
 

Here's a few early morning photos of what it's like to be on a river very early this time of year here in Tasmania....
cheers
Adrian

nah lol but i might go out for a geez sunday see if i can hunt a few big reds down☺

It appears we have another quality guy as a sponsor 
Pity we have a company mechanic, a mate and 2 brother in laws who are all mechanics.

Been watching the Ramp Cams this morning from very early this morning 
Been a very steady flow of boats out from Nth Haven 
O'Sullies Ramp Cam is Out of Action .....
West Beach is blurry to say the least, but not a lot has left from there, as compared to Nth Haven
Looks like a LOT of People, taking a "Sickie" today ..... LOL
 
SF
 

There he is, he's going to try and win his own prize again

I'm hoping to see some snapper reports posted up tomorrow and over the weekend that can enter the comp 

Video is finally up!
Now go wet a line and get those reports up!!!
