Well said Paddy will be at the Shrine for the Dawn service was lucky to be at Gallopoli dawn service 2 years ago brings home the sheer courage of what they faced and how senseless the campaign was the terrain was unbelievable.

Got back from portland last night. Tuna, but onlyy to 11.5 kg...

Paddy, bit late for kings mate but spearing a small SBT or albi doesn't seem too hard...

We had both in our berly trail...

Not sure if you';d want to jump in when a decent Mako could turn up at any moment though...

I busted my fricken sternum again so no spearing ror me for a bit...

Have managed to get from Eden to portland in the last two weeks though and get Kings and SBT's so I'm a pretty happy fella!

Rich.

Edit - Tuna were caught from a 5 meter tinny!
