Whitebait

[alley cat]

looks like cooked spoof on steroids to me.

I like the pet ones, well done romeo

Christ.. you ate 3 of those.. they used to be the size of diner plates.

Yep, they still are! There's a tale that might explain why I was a pig though. I stayed at the Belt Road Motor Camp after finishing the ride. Got there about 4 in the afternoon and checked into a small cabin. Intended to go down to the game fishing club for tea later. Anyway, unpacked the bike, took my jacket off and sat down on the bed for a moment. I must have been knackered because I woke up the next morning at 7 o'clock on top of the bed, still in my boots and leather pants and absolutely freezing because the ranchslider was wide open - keys were still in the bike too! Staggered off for a shower and shave to get myself going, then headed for Mokau feeling absolutely ravenous. Mokau was Nirvana!

Fark I wish I could sleep like well.

Must get down to the local river and have a dredge. Haven't had a nice WB omelette for years.

When I was a lad growing up in Hokitika we had so much of the stuff we would end up digging it into the vege garden.

I much prefer a good feed of offal....mmmmm kidneys

I tried last weekend but i think I was using the wrong gear... What's a good size hook, and is squid ok for bait?

Have you tried the new "soft baits"? They appear to be all the rage.

My late Grandad reckoned that they used to use whitebait for feeding the chooks.
