Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

You won't see many Northland river trout, not because they are rare, but because no one fishes for them. The urge to go freshwater fishing hit today, must be watching too much YouTube. I haven't cast a line in to a river for a while, maybe a decade. I forgot how annoying trees can be!
Eat your hearts out central North Islanders and South Islanders!

I caught a few more good fish last week using a mouse lure on a spinning rod - around midnight.
8.2lb and 6.8lb browns and a good 5.3lb rainbow - I finally invested in a good digital scale that goes to 25lbs.
Will post some photos when I get them sorted.

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

Agreed, that one was just over 8lb and the big mouth shows why they have no hesitation to go after my 8-10cm frog and mouse lures. Originally Posted by MB
