thanks for your kind words Elicat, alas it is true that not all AFOers are like me, but if we were all handsome and talented life would be so boring.

Nice to meet you Ben, good to see you managed a fish even if it was not the intended species. Here's hoping that fisheries continue to patrol that area and make those mongrels think twice before their next raid.
