Mangrove Jack,

Mary River Cod,

Fingers crossed for the new year! Anyone else keen to share their wish-list?

Cheers,

Ryan.

Nup, pretty much been there done that, everything that was burning a hole has now been caught!

Just more of the same will be fine, although a few more trips would be nice, its tough between work, kids and rotten weather! Take today for example, you can tell by the forecast that Feral must have time available to go fishing, coz the weather is a shocker!

i would just like to catch more fish in 2010.

2009 has been a poor year for fish caught for me .

but in 2009 i started with sp's and hb's.

but i think i spent to much time holding a can and not a rod this year while fishing.

if 2010 is like 2008 was then i will be happy with a feed caught almost every week or 2 .

but 2008 i was still a bait only fisho.
