I am going to buy into this as it has somewhat angered me. Was it Dire Straights that sang " Brothers In Arms" . Well I am on this forum as I consider we are all " Brothers in Arm " our love of fishing/surfcasting is what makes us that. So what the heck is going on. When I was a young kid I can remember going into the Primary School Urinal and have a pixxxing contest. And later when we developed a bit more, well the contest changed and it became who had the biggest, and I am not talking about fish.
So are we now back there. Oh look at my big one, now show me yours.
Hangler has his views, this topic has been thrashed to death on many Fishing Forums. And the consensus is always the same, they are absolute crap. So lets not go there.
But engage in meaningful chat and dialogue. Perhaps challenging others views, even questioning. But respect them for their views.
Chad you are well out of line. Maybe you had better buy a bigger hat. And it seems you have a few minnows in your burley trail.
Hangler, hangle in.
And if we really want to see a true fight well take a look at the attached pic. Kinda makes a dumb old man snapper look like a cakewalk, don't you think. Seven gill shark taken at Kaikoura, behind the Railway Station. Us South Island guys call these the smaller ones. Can we fish yep. Do we have big heads. "NO"
