Avoca to NT -0 Tay you rock - best of all nice 'Toga's - next trip bring some back for my aquarium!

Then again Gus................. you could always get frustrated and go back to lures and "cheating"- had to say it!

That's like a small Tarpon!!!! Well done that man!

Nice work Switzerland!

Did I actually see you smile in a photo??!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- OMG! Luv ya as always maaaaaaaate! M

Tassie Devil! ( Shakes head in disgust!!!)- LOL!

I'd keep the 3 I'm allowed to keep???!!!!

You rock mate, never a bad reason to explore- maybe 50% nothing great, but that feeling when you find something new- it makes up for all the arguing with the missus, then hard work hiking into the place, and then the elation when you hook something nice makes up for all of it. Well done mate

Nice one Caddis, I love my Thomas & Thomas Horizon II 8wt! Good to see some Raiders gettin' out in the mountains!

Everyone gets their "version" of info based on BoM....

Oakley with polarized lens like the flakjacket syle. I have used their polarized lenses for over 20 years- sure expensive but definitely worth it IMHO Some of the Smith are also good- sometimes function over style is the best way to go. just try on some brands, whichever fits your face best.

I'd also maybe grab a bottle of the water you catch them in, and if you do not have the test kits, take it to your nearest good aquarium store where you live- preferrably an aquarium dealer that has brackish and marines and get them to test the water for the usuals like:pH, hardness, S.G, salinity etc. If yu have a cannister- set it up and if you are experienced then you know you need to cycle the tank for a week or two at least ( if just using shellgrit/sand etc). Take the temp of the water where you catch them too. Biggest issue is stress, and feeding. Not unworkable, but other than the "cool" factor- any reason why you can't just set traps or net the day you go fishing?.... Love aquariums, almost more than fishing!

This man and his mate should be locked up, and the keys thrown away!

WOW grant, Those Togas sure look nice...well done mate, I'm jealous!

LOL- Mate I have spoken at length with all my co-conspirators about the 30lb monster trout in Burragorrang and the "lucky" people emplyed there that most likely fish the Lake- but, an $11,000 fine which what I have read and been told is very likely- and the fact that the "restricted area" around the lower Cox's and Burra - are monitored "regulalrly"- isn't worth it- mind you this has been table talk every Kanangra Trip- yet, sometimes you need to just dream. No doubt there are monster trout in there.......

Onya Mako, Love your reports and photos and your commitment!

Thanks Gus, Great read and your company is always great seeing as you are as nuts as me!. Just got home an hour ago from Kanangra with Dean (DWAG90) Friday nite walk in 2 days on stream and out today...... Let's just say we stopped counting after 60 fish:1yikes:!.....report AND PHOTOS to come next few days

Awesome, well done mate, what a great looking fish!

Call me- I PM'd my number to you

Pulling hard fish - don't you mean pickin' up chix at Rooty Hill RSL/Wenty Leagues or Doonside Workers?!!!

Lame- full of pollution from the North Saskatchewan River.....( just ribbing you Stew)

Without a doubt - the Niu Guinea Black Bass. Like Pigs on horse juice!

ABEL SUPER SERIES.....THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW
