Still some good gts down the tweed

[flickflack]

Hi All

Went for a quick run this morning up the Tweed to see if the Gts were still there. Yup they are and still pretty good size fish. We managed to get one out and a few flathead before heading up river to chase a few bream on topwaters. Unfortunately ran out of time and left the bream just as they were starting to come on with the change of tide. Back at work by 9:30 with the weather starting to look good. Might have to go again tomorrow .

Good fishing to you all
Rod

Great Catch! :o

Hey Flickflack,
Yet again excellent catch. I am amazed by the consistency with which you pull great fish from the tweed river. Your knowledge of the system must be huge. I spent much of last winter land based on the rock walls near the mouth and caught what i considered to be impressive bream and trevally but nothing in your calibre. Having recently purchased a boat, i spent a whole weekend on the river during a holiday at cooli and explored from the mouth right up to tumbulgum. I only managed a few legal bream and flathead but learnt alot nevertheless. Once uni holidays kick in around late june i plan to do some more serious fishing / learning on the tweed. Any chance i could coax you into having a fish with me?

Hi Rod,

Nice fish, they go hard on the light gear.
What did you get the Gt on? and which depth water and stage of tide were you fishing?

Cheers

As already stated you consistently get great catches of quality fish. Good work.

Just kidding mate.
We must still hook up for a fish sometime .

Cheers Rod

[Canoedle]

Nice little GT Rod, you must get invites to go fishing every day.

Hey Rod, great catch mate, will have to catch up for a few castles. Will send you a text with some Brissy fish, cheers Steve

Castle LAGER, you guys are AFRIKANS ;D
Theres a 'Japie' invasion ;D

Do you either of you follow the super 14 rugby? good to sea some strong competition from you guys. The Pretoria Bulls, sneaking into the last top 4 semi final spot

Cheers

[White_Steenbras]

No mate me speaka da ENGLISH. Are you a Jarpie or a Dogbream?????

Baie snaaks.

[flickflack]

Yup , but they are still not up to the Aussie and Kiwi standards of club rugby yet. Maybe next year or have I been saying that for the last few years. Still a good contest to watch.

Cheers Rod

[richieboy]

Great catch mate. You're continuosly posting consistent catches of top fish. Well done and keep all the picks coming.

Rich ;)

[Dogbream]

Are you a Jarpie or a Dogbream?????

Baie snaaks.

White Steenbras,
I'm not a Japie mate, I'm a New Zealander living in Australia.

Where are you guys from in South Africa?

On the Rugby side of things....don't think us Kiwis havent forgotten that rivalry against the Springboks. The name Francois Pienaar..............15-12.... a day every kiwi won't forget


By the way a 'dogbream' is another term for a Mangrove Jack ;)

Also, what does 'Baie snaaks' mean?....your only allowed to speak Afrikanns in the lineouts ;D ;D

Cheers
Dogbream

[White_Steenbras]

Yeah I agree with Rod there on the rugby front, maybe next year.

I remember that drop kick from Joel Stransky, he used to play rugby at my home school in C.Town. Well Dogbream baie snaaks means very clever, just like the old MJ.

Cheers Mate.

[nabs12]

Hey
Its great to see so many fellow South Africans on this site!
Thanks flick, i think i'll have to get a few surface hardbodies soon..

Cheers

[jim_bream]

Did somebody mention sinking a few cold castles...? ;D

[White_Steenbras]

I did, but Rod seems to like the Red Heart Rum. I sink some Castles or Windhoek.

[flickflack]

We have got them both at Mikes Kitchen in Coolangatta, They taste NIIICCCEE after work ;)

[Dogbream]

Mikes Kitchen! I've been there, it was a Hell of a feed, Top Marks.

Hurricanes match about to start.

[jim_bream]

HANG ON HANG HANG ONNNN!!! :o
Are we talking about THE Mike's Kitchen from SA, as in red, black and white checkered tableclothes and steaks to die for???? :P
In brisbane you can get Castles at The Liquor Barn next to Good Guys in Lutwyche. Springbok Meats down at the Gold Coast do all the SA faves like boerie, sosaties etc etc There's also a general store in Ferny Hills that sells Castle and Klipdrift (I shudder just typing it), can't remember th name tho....
I reckon a Saffa BBQ is the go before it gets too cold.......

[jim_bream]

I used to go to boarding school in Cape Town with the Managing Director's son of Namibian Breweries.... as a result can't touch the stuff anymore. :(
(Too many Freebies on a Friday night while the Housemaster was watching TV
he he he he he) ;D
Herschelle Gibbs used to cheat off me in Maths. We both failed.... >:(

LOL ;D
poor old herschelle, lucky he's a bloody good batsmen ;D

[White_Steenbras]

Looks like we might have met in a Rondebosch/Bishops classic, I remember ol Herschelle, played some cricket against him in High School, he could have been a Springbok Flyhalf, nice one Jim.

Hey Rod, those after works drinks do sound good, will probably see you for a steak and beer before a fish, cheers mate.
