I booked two seats, but someone's busy playing with their new boat and can't make it.

So if someone wants to come along there'll be a spare seat courtesy of reelchippy's new obsession.

[Ash]

Angus

[rayke1938]

Where was everyone? Met brian and Malcom thats all. Didnt win raffle but scored a Jervis Walker filleting kit for asking a question.

We all now have the big whiting , river snapper, jewie and thready secrets so watch out.

Ray

[ryno1983]

Mate i was there and looking out for the AFO logo, though havnt met any of you guys before so no familar faces and saw no logos.

Hope to get out on some fishing trips this summer with a few of you after ive dealt with my exams. Why did i go back to do a masters????

[Malcolm]

It was very good, lots of info. I should have taken a note book as my brain is small:)

[ellicat]

Ash was there too. We caught up for a chat and smoke in the break.

ryno1983, I wore my AFO shirt just for you and Ray had his BRC shirt. We should have stood out as the best dressed:P

Sitting right up the front didn't help me win the raffle either though.

I picked up what I initially thought was a packet of suppositories :pinch: for asking a question. On further inspection they turned out to be SP's.

It was a good seminar with plenty of good tips. Look out for Ray's FOTM entry;)

[rayke1938]

Here is a photo of the filleting kit I got. [img size=500]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/P1010715_AFO.jpg

[buzzid]

geez ray you're on a roll mate, make sure you got a powerball ticket for tonight.

[rayke1938]

Look out for Ray's FOTM entry

If i would have had my camera.

Youngy had around 20 whiting the majority of which were over 40 cm that he caught in the Nerang on monday night.

Even had a measuring stick. It would have been easy to take a couple of photos and black out the background and bingo FOTM.

Ps it wasnt my idea who suggested it.

Ray

[ellicat]

Congrats on 2000 posts Ray. That's an inspiration for fellas of your vintage. (Come on Graham:woohoo: )

I don't know who would have thought of that FOTM idea - bl@@dy devious that is:unsure: :dry:

[STU]

\"Congrats on 2000 posts Ray. That's an inspiration for fellas of your vintage\"

Thanks I have been on the site since july last year ( Thanks Feral)

I dont know what I would do without AFO it is really addictive.

I am having real spelling problems as I have worn I,O L.N.L.H. off my keyboard and am too lousy to buy another and too lazy to get stuck into it with the engraver.

I really havent enjoyed life so much in years. It gives me great pleasure and pride to be part of the community.

I know that I tend to waffle on and get on my high horse at times and I appologise if I have hurt anyones feelings.

So in conclusion to another rambleing waffle thanks Angus and John and all the other members who make this such a great site.

And I bet I know who thought of the FOTM entries.... would not want to point the finger at anyone would we Ellicat!

See I am all over this investigations stuff, I think I should get paid more!
