The lie detector

[Ryder]

I found a spot out of the wind this arvo to hit some blackfish.

It was slow going for the first hour or so and I was thinking of giving it away.

Just then my float disappeared, and I was hooked onto a solid fish.

Once it was landed it looked big and felt thick across the shoulders.

I got back into it when former Fishraider Luderick record holder, Gianni 'thefisherman6784' paddles past on his hobie, and I tell him about the 45cm+ fish I have in the keeper.

I got one more that I guesstimate is 40+ also.

The brag mat doesn't lie.

Oh well, I'm a fisherman and an optimist.
