    Tecnology

    I wonder at the tech stuff we have today . Picking up a cell phone that tells me to dial 5.2 moa for a 420yd shot while having the one day cricket playing in one ear on iheart radio is to some (especially the younger generations ) all a little ho hum ho hum I guess but to someone that used a ready reckoner before basic electronic calculators where common place its still quite mind boggeling.

    Couple of small ones that we threw back 30cm ish. In our usual spots we just got smashed by rays all day and all night. Moved a few times and hooked up near some foul ground but just got smashed again.

    If you could keep the bait 12"+ off the bottom do you think the rays would still grab it? Curious as I have seen a rig that I would like to try there and if it avoids the friggin rays all good.

    That link crashed my iPad as well
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
