Yellowbelly
Snuck out on Monday morning to Old Man Creek which is an anabranch of the Murrumbidgee. Walked all morning looking for a cod, but very low water levels made it hard going. Managed to find one good deep hole and a mate and myself scored a nice Yella each. He will be gracing the dinner table tonight. ...

Male and Female
You might not have known this, but a lot of non-living objects are actually either male or female. Here are some examples: FREEZER BAGS: They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them. PHOTOCOPIERS: These are female, because once turned off, it takes a while to wa...

Maskn, I've only shot them in my backyard, so that is only 25m - but they fly beautifully. I don't notice any differrance in trajectory, but they seem to be spinning better as they leave the bow. Sparra, the top right fletch is usually on the arrow in the standard three fletch. There's that one, the...

Four Fletch Anyone?
Does anyone use four fletches on their arrows? I was reading about the benefits of four fletch in the 60/120 degree configuration. It was saying that it gives the best clearenceon the shelf. I fletched up two arrows and shot them and must say I like it. Having four 5 1/2 bananna feathers might seem ...

New Bow
Just thought I’d share with you guys my new bow. It is an ‘Arctic Fox’ by Fox Archery 53# @28. It is a two piece sleeve takedown with a locator grip, and is deflex/reflex when unstrung. The riser is Cocolobo and the limbs are bamboo with a veneer of Juniper on the front of the li...

Top effort Pedro, Those hermaphrodyte goats grow some huge horns. Paul Oswald(I think ?) shot one years ago with Dave Whiting and it was over 140pts, and Dick Tulloh got one aswell over 135pts. It was the fisrt thought that popped into my mind when I saw the photo. Like you say they don't fight othe...

Mick, for years i've used the good old Swandri and it has served me well. More recently i've started purchasing Stoney Creek gear, and find it to be excellent. I haven't yet got a top in heavier top in the stoney creek, as my swanny still serves me well, but who knows how long I can hold out for! :l...

Jeff, We hadn't seen one either! It's always nice to catch new species. Apparently they are pretty good eating too. Mick, It was the first time I had used them. We just fished them as you would normal lures. We just fished the edge of weedbeds, they are virtually snagproof as the single hook slips t...

Merimbula Fishing Trip
Just got back from a weekend trip with some mates. Went down to Merimbula on the NSW south coast chasing some winter flathead. On friday we got a couple of nice ones (40 & 50cm) and had them for dinner - beautiful. Caught them using squidgee soft plastics. The next day was beautiful weather but ...
Kids
Here's an email I got, sometimes kids just crack me up. A first grade teacher presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surpri...

Wow! Thanks for the replies fellas. Yes Mick,the Trout Cod are protected, so they were all released. They have been making a comeback and it is great to see. The Trout Cod are apparently voracious feeders and I'd beleive it after the amount of running to the rods we did all night. After catching onl...

Murrumbidgee Boat Trip
Just came back from a two day trip, fishing down the Murrumbidgee River with two mates. It was my first time out & about for a fair while so it was just great to get out there with some mates. Was a fishing trip, but took the recurve along in case someting caught my eye. We caught five Trout Cod...

Topo Maps
I was thinking of getting some topo maps of my hunting areas, and was wondering where you guys get your maps from? Any suggestions?
I went to a camping shop that had maps, and asked and their reply was
"Yeah we probably should get some more in" so I thought i'd just get them myself
