Plnety of Barra in the fresh water as well - although the Salt water one's taste better.

You can catch them on anything - round hand reels and bits of tin foil on the hook !!! LOL.

But a good rod and reel is better.

Ben I am starting to take a dislike to you. You are always smilling

With just cause.

Well done! Just don't tell me you walked 200 metres from your back door and shot that buff.

Cheers

Greg

200m? I wish! It was about 100km. But, about a month ago, I was walking the dog along the cycle track that goes from town to the base, and not far past All Seasons (so, quite close to Casuarina Street Primary School, really) we found fresh bull buffalo dung on the path. That would've been under two kilometres as the crow flies from my house. But that sort of thing is pretty rare. It's been ten years since I killed my first buffalo, and I've only killed twenty-three (or is it twenty-four?) myself in total. So it is a rare-enough thing for me. The dream I keep chasing is access to a steady supply of buffalo!
