    Lost a good rainbow.Had attached Maccas thingy and a toby big strike then nothing the rod bent and stopped thought i had one then nothing happened ,rod still bent couldn't free my line so gave it a good haul and snap the line broke lost both my lure and maccas nymph and a big bright rainbow lept out of the water.Dunno if it took the lure or the nymph.


    Has anyone ever caught a fish with a lure or flie already in the gob of a fish?

    Good to see they're getting a work out. One metre waves on Taupo, windy as, so mowed lawns, installed my gas hot water, went for a latte and slept. Boats ready to go so see tomorrow.

    We were marlin fishing once dundee and a fish took one of the lures.
    Played it for a bit and got a solid little Mako in. As we were gona let it go we didn't gaff it or anything we were just going to clip the trace by the mouth. Grabbed the trace and the hook pulled free, we all went "aye" and we had a jap longline hook on our hook????? Fucken trippy as, was as if the bugger was flossing!!

    That is brilliant. I love raw fish and can imagine that it is great using trout.

    It's a superb recipe , but the fish must be orange in colour.
