dirvin21 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 This will be one my last posts for 2022 as in true Dave and Amy style we're spending New Years put cod fishing miles from the internet. Just wanted to thank all my fellow raiders for all your contributions this year I love reading about other people's fishing almost as much as fishing itself. Of course a thankyou to my fellow mods and especially Donna aka @mrsswordfisherman who without FR wouldn't run Amy and I have had some great trips and amazing captures this year knocking off sime bucket listers and breaking pb's not to mention become Mr and Mrs Dave and Amy. Working as a nurse through 2022 has teally highlighted to me don't put it off, do it now the future is never guaranteed so in true style Amy and I are off to the Amazon in March on the fishing adventure of a lifetime All the best for 2023 looking forward to all the reports I've chucked up a few highlight shots from 2022 Dave 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yowie Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) Good luck when you head to the Amazon. My daughter was told that you can swim with piranha, so long as you do not splash the water (she would not try it 🤣 ) She also caught a few on a line.

Pickles Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Way to go Dave and Amy. I love reading your posts and always look forward to some great pics. I trust you have a great time in South America (something I’ve always wanted to do, being an avid life long tropical fish enthusiast). Blessings for 2023. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Sydney Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) Good luck in the Amazon, Dave and Amy. What a wonderful trip to look forward to. Are there any particular species on the checklist you’re targeting there? Edited December 28, 2022 by mrsswordfisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hill373737 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Nice work Dave, those photos show a special 2022 for you and Amy. All the best to both of you for a cracking 2023 and I hope you get onto some nice cod over NY. Cod fishing is pretty good up this way at the moment, since my big one a few weeks back I've been consistently getting 45 to 55 cm modelsout of Split Rock - just can't find another big one....yet!! steve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've chosen a trip with loads of variety, really hoping to land a decent payara and arowana bit I'll happily take anything I can't catch in Australia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsswordfisherman Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Thanks for you kind comment Dave. We have watched you over the years overcome the usual life hurdles and now enjoy seeing you and Amy absolutely enjoying life to the fullest. Nurses, of course I have a special place in my heart. You guys deserve all the best professionally and personally. Thanks also for your work on fishraider as a moderator. The reports will be amazing from the Amazon and we all look forward to them. We still hope to get up there to fish with you both when you return from the Amazon next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
