" YOUTH is a GIFT "
"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.

doors off wrote: However, the numbers and size are getting beyond a joke. At least let spear hunting come back, the buggers would be real scared then, our Top End traditional owners could at least then hunt them, skin them, de teeth them and make the money for them selves rather than the "farms".
Spot on mate...

Re: 123kg boar
Went back today to find my dog once the water had receded and dog and pig where both exactly where my tracker had them last !!!
both where dead but was good to get closure
No sign of the croc at all but the water had dropped nearly 3 m so I'd say it had buggered off
At least old sarj went out on a tonner !!

Re: 123kg boar
Good on you for going back and getting old Sarj back. Time to upgrade the pack now?
Fishing in the top end isn't just a matter of life or death, it's much much more serious than that.
