About LinkBacksBugger you've heard! Yip they are killing fish on lures up at Stephens ...seen photos of some very very solid fish ...heard they were caught on Jerk baitsnot sure if that was the name of the lure or the fisherman?
Yes I'm jealous , we are in the middle of shark city..no scallops and a feeling of gloom ...hope the fishery can handle the pressure it's getting!

Great day on the water. And Clay's off the back for a bit....
For a foreiner and gun virgin. He loved it. However, these under and over things aren't as nice to shoot as a versamax ( now illegal.....)......
Fishing was tough.....Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

Why is your versamax illegal?
Mine is all compliant. Removed the extension, replaced mag spring and now holds 4+1 3" shells.

All the fishing shows talk of snapper moving into the shallows in winter so thats where I would be looking. Funny tho how our snapper down here do the complete opposite and head deep for winter.

I had to buy another end cap. Should have told you.
Was 40 bucks before the bird season opened.

You may not be catching any but I cannot believe that there aren’t any there.
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

Got out yesterday to give the new old 15hp a run and tune after some clean up and fix up work on it during the week. Immediately after start one of the plugs died so I shot home and got some more plugs and swapped them out....should have got new plugs but hadn't quite got there yet
.
Went and set in a completely new area in order to give the motor a decent run with fresh fuel and get it tuned.
Flounder dog was suspicious and pointing to another channel but alas I thought I knew better and set in this one.
I was rewarded with a net full of weed and barstard rock oyster shells and one river flounder.
At least the motor was a success, once idle and idle mix was sorted she starts and runs like a clock.... pretty good for a 38y old motor.
