"AGE is an ART ""Doesn't mean you get any smarter..just wrinkled and cracked".
"No angler watches nature in a passive way...He enters into its very existence." (John Bailey...Reflections on a Waters Edge)
"Govern a Family as you would catch a small fish....Very Gently." (Chinese Proverb)
"Only those become weary of angling who bring nothing to it but the idea of catching fish." (Rafael Sabatini...1857-1950)
I pray that one day God sends me a fish so big that, when talking of it...I have no reason to lie.

When a'mullet' ceases to be a hairstyle, and hookups have nothing to do with single chicks/blokes.
When a tinny is where you drink your tinny.
When 'donuts' aren't some form of pastry.
When a double header isn't referring to a tasmanian.
When a cast is something you do, rather than something you wear.
When your talking of 'big girls', and you get a thick ear.

You can fillet and skin a barramundi in five minutes no waste and restaurant class cuts.....but you still can't put a nappy on an infant.
Its not a crisis unless there is blood around.
If there is blood around......well its a police matter...

the debate on live bait, hard bodies & soft plastics is not just a discussion, it's way more important than that

Re: You Know You're a Barra Fisho When.......
When you are off fishing Shady for a week and the missus' 1st child is due in 5 weeks, and a glance at the Satphone reveals 10 missed calls from the mother-in-law.....a quick courtesy call during a hot barra sesh and you find out the cook is having a baby as we speak...alls well, and we called him ''Tom".Was supposedly flying back 2 days later and said to the heavily drugged misses, "not much point me flying back early.You are in good hands", and she says "I agree, you have fun..."

When you have as many lures as a small tackle shop but only use about 6 favorites

You say "Honey, me and the girls are taking the boat out for a fishing comp in a few weeks" and he says "better not clash with my boys trip"';
you consult the tide tables before setting your wedding date;
you buy baby accessories and clothing with a view to how well they'll suit bubs for long days out on the water;
being given a new rod and reel for Valentines Day is NOT grounds for divorce

You grumble about a 7am start at work, but spearing down the highway at 4am toward the daly seems perfectly logical
Just remember if all else fails "try like F##K" !!!!!!!
