I love the little fellow. He looks like a bundle of energy and trouble.

Waidmannsheil on the stag and hind(?).

Calling him Hydro, have you negotiated a sponsorship deal with Geoff MacDonald? Ha ha. Joking

I think I need a couple of GSP pups, a male Rigby, and a female Purdey.

I've got a WR, so maybe a female Westley, and a male Richard. I can tell out when hunting "WESTLEY RICHARD!!!"

Thanks for the pics.

Couple nice browns, Mic.
Interesting ammo - 270gr. What's the velocity of those?
I'm currently shooting 450gr. FN's at about 1,800fps from my 86.

Nice little Bows, too. I like 4 weights, but picked up a 3 for small streams. I haven't used it yet.
I might try it casting bows while anchored in the pre-river shallows next summer.

I'm not a fisherman but may have to take it up one-day.

But what is an "owt"? Slang for a small trout?

I don't know some of the fish, but some grand fish caught.

Which ones are the best eating? Trout though bony is renowned but what about the others? Murray Cod? "Metery"? That's a huge fish. The stream does look deep enough? What's a big fish like that to eat?

I'll have to dig out my fishing books when I find them. I've never really fished, probably because few fresh water fishing here. Coastal and the Murray. the Territory was fun. Victoria had lots of water.

Well done Mick and the guys. Thanks for posting.

Matching Duct tape! Professional job.

Congratulations on your grand stag. A ripper. Waidmannsheil.

A Ruger Single Shot in .45/70. Nice.

I'm always envious of your chiller.

Meat Bush Tuckerman.

I always like your .500 J. It was a Babnick / Century Arms creation I believe.

I missed your earlier December posts before. Thanks for posting. Always enjoyable.
