    Do we get them down here or not quite temperate enough?.....I can only dive to the bottom if my moobs are above water when I am standing on it.

    Spare a thought for a former athlete that now has the water displacement capabilities of an ocean liner. If I were to dive head first into a pool these days I have good reason to believe that my pecker would not get wet before I reversed thrust and shot back out of the pool like a Polaris missile.
    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

    Yeah Stingy they do have pretty small mouths. I've caught them on a small Sabiki rig on the rod but speared most of them.
    I'm surprised you get them that far south. I've never caught them around Auckland, only around the Barrier but that might just be a numbers game

    Out this arvo with a brand new re slung short net..... against my better judgement I set on a outgoing tide......a number of very short sets and net clearing untangling untill I found a spot that would work and promptly caught a Stingray and had to cut the bloody thing out of my brand new mesh!
    Got my 20 but it was hard work.

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    I actually went fishing yesterday (I never go fishing)...

    Caught about 78 snapper between 25 and 34cm which went back (boat min of 35). Ended the day with 10 snapper between 35-40cm, four big trevally (~50cm) and two good kahawai between 3 of us.
