Fisherman Paul

Went fishing for the first time in my life today - or should I say angling. I'm totally addicted already. I caught a very little herring in my first 5 minutes and proceeded to catch about 10 in the day - most this small but some decent sized. Took them home and poached them but we decided against cooking them so the cats had a good feed. Great stuff.

Going to go shooting rabbits and possums with Damian and Brent tomorrow - should be a blast in more ways than one. Brent's got more experience and I imagine we'll be eating the rabbits - no idea what you do with the possums (if anything).
Probably not the first - or last - time I've had a "tiddler" in my hands...
