Hello

[Master Baiter]

I am from Barjarg NE Victoria Where I fish the local lakes 4 in all. I started fishing over 50 years ago with a catgut line wrapped around a peice of wood.and small hooks. Caught more fish then than I do today. Actually today was a good day I caught three large Carp thats three down on my Black queen rods. I have only just found this forum it is the best out of all the ones I have seen.
Cheers for now Wally
