Extra long long weekend
Submitted by Colin Hay on Mon, 2008-05-26 13:45
I have taken Thursday and Friday off this week to make it an extra long long weekend.
If anyone has a spot for a deckie on any of those days I would love to join you. I will chip in for bait and fuel etc. and have my own gear.
Many thanks, Colin Hay

Thanks mate
Thought about going away for the weekend, but the "trouble and strife" has plans for me to do some chores at home over the rest of the weekend (hence the decision to take Tursday and Friday off when she is at work).

It sounds like you guys have got some cool things planned
Where are you taking the boat Ryan?
Do you fly fish from a boat or from the shore Peter?

Sounds like a lot of fun
I have only tried fly fishing one. For trout in a stream in South Africa (without much success). I can see the buzz in pulling in a fish like a salmon on a fly.
