hey guys how many of you fly fish?

do you tie your own flys?

and what species do you target?

so i take it no-one fishes here

I've got 4 fish and chip shops in walking distance from my house.

My fishing requires waiting 5 minutes for it to cook, and selecting normal or chicken salt.

Sorry

You been having a couple of quiets again??

No..but good idea..I'll go get one now.

tie your own flys if your enthusiastic enough about it or buy em i guess.
not sure what species in salt water, perhaps barramundi's, but in fresh water theres lots of things like trout, cod, any surface feeders really.

hey simon, dont u get fines for not voting?
i think a 100 dollar fine isnt worth copping when its so easy to walk up to a school and donkey vote ......

To side track for a brief moment, I wonder when Australians will be given the right to vote. Citizens if the US have the right to vote, as do the citizens of Great Britain, but not us, despite the lies that you hear at election time.
Anytime that the citizens of a country are compelled to perform an act, under panalty of law, then the act connot be regarded as a "right" In this country, we do not have the right to chose whether to cast a ballot or not.

Saltwater fly fishing.
I must confess, i had not heard of it before. Freshwater,..yes, but not saltwater. It's usually too windy & there's too much surface turbulance in my old fishing haunts.

These days we need to buy a Licence to saltwater fish. Screw that, I pay tax, a lot of tax, so these days i just dangle a line with a sinker on the end, no hook, just to inconvenience the fish police.
To be regarded as "fishing" it must be demonstrated that you have a reasonable expectation of catching a fish, which cannot be done without a hook. Screw them.

lol
just be careful you don't accidently knock some poor hapless fish out with that sinker while you're casting!

yah i have voted in the past but last time i went up there my name wasnt on the list. i dont mind voting, the booths are a short walk away from where i live.
Dodgeman have u had a run-in with some fishing official ? I rekon its low down and dirty that the average bloke (or lady) has to buy a license to pull fish from the water.. Although - they say the money goes towards stopping the illegal fishing vessels - which is the reason we had to get licensing in the first place - overfishing by companies etc. we as the end user end up paying the monies for the problems that others made.
L18_B110, the fish should be so lucky, if they were knocked out, that would save them ending up on my hook
