{{+1}}Queensland Grouper – juvenile{{-1}}
{{start}}
There are very few fish our there that wont eat a prawn or a shrimp. This Juvenile Queensland Grouper fell to my prawn fly. As usual the fish was released to fight another day.

{{+1}}Awonga spills at dam wall taking plenty of fish into the Boyne River{{-1}}
{{start}}
Every cloud has a silver lining I am told. The silver lining for the horrendous weather and damage associated with cyclone Debbie is that Awonga dam has started to spill taking heaps of fish into the Boyne River. Over the next short while as the river flow settles down the barra fishing should be very exciting.{{end}}
{{+1}}Redfin in Jindabyne, Eucumbene & Tantangara ????{{-1}}
{{start}}
Here is an interesting email from Steve Samuels that I wanted to share with you. Redfin are prolific breeders and carnivores ... if the right precautions are not in place, with no chance of mishap, their numbers will quickly out-compete trout for food and as soon as they get to any size they have the predisposition to eat trout fry and fingerlings.{{end}}
{{+1}}Eucumbene River access at Denison Camping Area{{-1}}
{{start}}
The camping area will be better defined with timber bollards with a view to stopping vehicle access beyond the camping area to the north ... I support this project.{{end}}
{{+1}}Black rubber tail fly{{-1}}
{{start}}
This fly has turned out to be a fantastic point fly for bass in Lake Maroon. I have fished it for two years in a row in the Variety Club competition with a MKII olive or black woolly bugger on a dropper and achieved two podium finishes.{{end}}

{{+1}}Packing for Christmas Island{{-1}}
{{start}}
Each time I go on a major fishing trip I modify my packing list. My latest trip was to Christmas Island in the Pacific. These are the revised lists for my High Sierra bag when it is used as my carry on bag and for the same bag when it becomes my fishing bag as well as my list for my check in luggage. I will modify these list as I head off to other destinations.{{end}}
{{+1}}Sandfly bites{{-1}}
{{start}}
Contrary to popular belief sandfly bites are not associated with laying eggs. They are in fact bites associated with feeding. The fact that almost immediately they start to itch and the itching increases is related to the fact that during the feeding process they urinate and the bites become infected.{{end}}
