Yeah I remember most of the members mentioned so far, where is "Streaker" ?
Wayne was a very active member who had some great Snapper and Pearly marks out on the Barwon Banks. Last time I saw him was on the Golf Course !!
Also "Landy 1 " ? Michael was a good guy who was part of one of the first M&G's we had camping overnight on Crusoe Is about 10 years ago. Touchy was there giving us all a fishing lesson on the Sunday morning, catching Bream one after the other from the bank while many of us hungover, huddled around the camp fire !
Good to have you back Grunta, seemed like you had a break from AF for a few years ?
What about "Spike 2" ? Had the Blue cyclone side console and lived on the Goldie. Was a very active member around 2002/2004. Was right into luring bream when it was just being explored with plastics and newer techniques.
Where is "Begsy" ? Was the local guy always fishing Cleveland Point ? Liked his Bream and Taylor reports. Had a board he would throw on the ground with rod holders built onto it. Had to rope it to his vehicle so the fish wouldn't pull it into the water !!
So many old members that don't or can't (mackmauler, Zeeke, fisherman 02, etc) post anymore.
