Manton

Post by Matt Flynn »

Anyone know who the non-beer-drinking non-jerky-eating unsociable boat with the electric motor was when we had the Manton Dam night?

Matt,
I didn't get his name but he did say that it was a bit early for them (barra) when I asked them how they were going. He doesn't live to far from me as he followed passed my street. I don't think they did any good either :|

Scotty,

We ended up with one fish (51cm) and a few strikes, but nothing I would get excited about. Unfortunatly I cant really hide with a boat the colour of mine.

Catch ya,

We were drinking beer and eating jerky, but I try and stay away form anything that makes noise. In Manton, if it makes noise then you may as well forget it, so I stayed well away and fished a couple quiet streatches... and quiet it was only one small fish and a few strikes with one jump off.

Catch ya,
Tam

Tam,
Well, there you go. Small world. Do you think doing some moonlight testing of the new motor might have put them of??? You really did miss out on some of the best jerky I have ever tasted though!!!(don't tell 2 Rods that) :cheers:

Beer

You should have had a beer with us Tamlin, I knew the fish weren't biting that night coz my elbow wasn't tickling - if the elbow is not tickling, I have a beer.

had a go but nothing to show. The saltwater is getting too good to mess about at the dam now, but I will still give it a crack every now an then.
