Nothing ventured = Nothing gained, It was worth a shot and anyway a lousy day fishing beats a great day at Work hands down :angel:

Speaking of teachin' trout how to be aussie, I'm not sure if he's referring to the same fish but over here in NSW we spell it Mullaway. My grandad (on the right):

Two Bob coin collector.

"Argyrosomus japonicas"
Mulloway, Mullaway, Kingies or Jewfish.
All pretty much the same Fish. :ok:

My PB is a 65lb fish I caught when I was in my 20's But I have caught hundreds of them over the years and they are always an exciting and somewhat elusive fish to catch.
They are not that good as a table fish so I usually release them :)

Had this little cutie in a tree down the back but it was getting attacked by the stinkin crows.

A well placed .22 normally stops those nasty little buggers, Or just walk outside with a broomstick could work I have been told :)

Yes they don't like things that look like a rifle. Gee I wish I still had my little .22 but being in town is still a problem.

Tape a plastic 2ltr cool drink bottle over the end of the barrel if you are concerned about the noise :diablo::)

**sniff sniff**

our son moved out tonight after being home for a few years (in the granny flat) - he will be back to finish packing up the granny flat which will take him, I reckon about 3 months!!

we all cried as it is sort of sad but also a well needed move
he is moving in with his fiance

her family are lucky as they will be renting her parents flat which is literally straight across the road from mama and papas house (and nona etc - 4 generations in the house)

now it's just me and dad

they call it the empty nest syndrome don't they?

it will take some getting used to - although last year he was at her place quite a lot but not all the time ......

sad .... i suggested that the youngest one to come back home with his g'friend and rent the granny flat!! (instead of paying capitalist piggy rents over near parliament house way) .....

woe is mummie  :(

not sure if just the twp of us will still need to be living in a four bedroom house + partial granny flat for much longer
