Remember the torn ligaments I had when you were over the last time ... i fluffed them up so bad had to use that damn blue contraption to fight the fish ... but to be honest it only hurt when there was no fish on the line .. otherwise .. didnt feel a thing till it was time to drive 600 kms back to bombay by myself

Great Stuff Fred, suggest you keep that scale you were going to send me as a prize!! and take it on your next trip to VDurg...

Hey Bobster .. all fish were weighed before they were released .. and the ones we took back to the lodge were weighed in again .... Have 3 nash scales there 2 --50 lbs test for the boat ( use one for Devgarh if we have 2 charters going out of Durg and Devgad and a 200 lbs for the Lodge

Well done Fred

Hi Fred,

Wonderful pictures!!. That barra is going to give me sleepless nights. By the way I too pulled my Elbow ligament and have been reduced to troliing since the last two months. Iam nursing the elbow so as to be fit enough to tackle some big fish in March. THe blue thingie could help?

Splendid report, Fred!

Congratulations!

Jeen .. I can send you one from here ... bloody thing works ... with Dashes of Vodka off course

Hi Fred,

Thanks man. Now that I know what it looks like can easly locate one over here. As for the Vodka got some at Home!!

Thanks again

Tight lines

With an OH reel, I have found that a Kidney Harness is more advantageous than the Gimbal, ofcourse both would be best. especially if you are using a heavier reel and are naturally right handed.

gr8 to c those amazing pics. surely must have been a trmendous game out there.

Owen

B4 the beers OMO and when ure in town ..... no walking ... only talking and drinking and eating good food ...Im curious OMO ... how the fluff did you make your way out in the morning from my place .. did you just walk over the gate bcoz that was locked ...

One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind Fred

Nice one Owen

Where the Man OMO ..... oh you mean you ... that I agree ... Gav remember the feet ... the size of the feet !!!!!!!!

And Fluffing big feet, they are
Makes me wonder.... ..... You know

Yes Gavin, he wears very large shoes!!

Tell me about it...

Cant forget that morning when I reached B'lore and Owen was at the station to meet me...
He told me that he was tall, but i still thought to myself how tall could this guy be ??
Anyways, he knew my coach # and so I knew that i would not have to look out for him when i arrived at the station..
Now when the train pulled to a halt at the station, i came out to the door and looked down amongst the people to look for OMO.. No sign of the bugger.. When suddenly, I heard this "Hey dude" and I look up and see this tall tall tall guy wearing a bandana and a smile on his face.
Now peoples, let me try and explain my shock here.. Am about 5ft6ins in height and am standing on the footboard of the train which is about 15 inches off the platform, and there u have "Andre the Giant" standing on the platform itself and looking at me, dead straight in the eyes, with a huge smile on his face... "Welcome to Bangalore"

Now I know what the Lilliputs felt like when they came across Gulliver

Gav Ure lucky hes not ure father in law --- i can just imagine this -- Gav in his loose undies kneeling down with hands folded -- looking up at the wife -- saying " please darlin ... just one more fish" ------and theres OMO's girl towering above with OMO sitting in his rocking chair rolling a cigarette saying " Let the Runt be baby - Oh Fluff -- im cracking up

At the brighter side of things... Look at all the amazing gear that I would have access to

Yes boys, it is nice to dream aint it
