arpie Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) Hi guys Some months back (way before I went to Tuross), Starlo asked me if I wanted to be 'profiled' as a Lady Yakker for the Summer issue of Sport FIshing Magazine (incorporating the Yak Fishing Mag.) There are quite a few articles dedicated to Yak fishing & I had bought the mag before, for its Aussie Yakking articles. Of course, I jumped at the chance .... and answered the questions that Starlo put to me & posted off some of my finer yakking pics ....... and it is now out in print!! Only found out yesterday, so raced down to the newsagent before 5.30pm to get me a copy!! Can't stop smiling! If you are interested in getting a copy, this is the magazine the article is in!! Hope you enjoy the read Cheerio Roberta Edited November 27, 2008 by Roberta
Hodgey Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 What an appropriate title for the article ... "A yak with Roberta' Terrific read Roberta, accompanied by some great photos. The mag is now doing the rounds of the office. (Edinski is reading it as we speak). I will expect it to be autographed next time we catch up Cheers Ian

I can't believe this, cause on my way home from rockfishing today, I stopped at a newsagency and just grabbed this magazine- I haven't even read it yet ( will tonite before sleep). What's the chance of that- that I would pick that mag out of about 6 others.
