That looks suspiciously like Lake Sedgemere and Fish lake perhaps? Am I on the right track?
I want to head in there for a fish when the season opens again. :yes:

I treat fishing spots the same way I treat naked photos of my girlfriend, I only share them with close friends :laugh:

Seriously though, I am more than happy to email or call you to share some info, but always reluctant to divulge detailed information publicly on the interweb. PM me when your looking to head off and I'd be happy to sort you out, we could even catch up for a fish if you're keen :niceone:

OK you dont have to watch the full 25min clip to get the gist. I guess (like everything else) in adventure riding what to take on ya bike is like asking how long is a peice of string

http://www.vimeo.com/14709958

The video (to the left of screen) at this site has some good advise especially at the 1:48 mark!
