What a place! Never fished anywhere like it, I could live here no worries.. Put a live bait down on 15lb class gear and caught a 8ft lemon shark... God knows the weight, probably 200lb or so.. Caught loads of snapper, Jack's etc.. good food, sunshine, took the boat to a dockside bar had a few too many so got Fin to get an uber to us and take the boat home ..mental place lol

Wonderful text to wake up to ! My dad shot his very first buck this morning! Re worked his little .243 and handloaded him some ammo last time I was home. Told home he needs to do some hunting because I'm gonna miss most of the rifle season and one of use should kill something he's not massive antler wise but definitely will fill the freezer . Said was about a 60yd shot and dropped lin his tracks . Proud of my old man just wish I could have been there to see his face and take some pictures ..but hay what can ya do

Was chatting to someone I know yesterday and he asked me if I was still looking for a little couple of days a week job as I get a bit bored and the beer tokens come in handy so I says yes what’s going on to which he reply’s that a guy we both know is looking for someone two days a week shooting birds on the runway of an raf base on the Cotswolds so I’ve put my name in the hat but think it’s mine there is several lakes on site strictly no fishing but containing carp over 40lb never fished for so if all goes well it will be two 12 hour days shooting and I’ll stay overnight in the van and fish th

Must be a different setup in England. I do the terrierwork for a mounted pack here and have done now for a number of seasons, and we’re all like family. I got into riding a few years back now and don’t own my own horse and a couple of members numerous times have given me a horse for free absolutely delighted to see me up on a horse. Ride up front and for free. Hunt ball tickets given to me every year. Free feed for my dogs. It’s my life and I wouldn’t talk bad about it one bit. From washing out kennels, walking hounds , going to hound shows, autumn hunting , and hunting. It’s a full way of lif

We met with @Rickshaw swamilast night, once again thank you mate for your time and generosity. We had an amazing dinner, talked for hours, hunting and fishing dominating the talk, but history, music and family as well, I think we spent about 3 hours together and it flew by, my wife loved it as well. We're going to stay another night in Alabama, maybe more, this place has reduced our speed to get across the states, its slowed us down, which has been great. Waylon is a top man, a proper hunting and fishing man who lives, possibly, in the best place to pursue those things.. the invite i

Boat stranded on edge of giant hole in Whitchurch canal pulled to safety WWW.BBC.CO.UK The boat, which is a family's home, will be refloated in the new year. I've been on a boat myself the past few months. Skippering a trawler in the North Sea. A job I did moons' ago. I took a few refresher courses ,passed my medical and bang! out at sea again. I'm exhausted, stressed out with responsibility, but there's nothing like it. If I hadn't gone the family route, I would have chosen this life. You're hunting all the time. All your senses are on edge but it's r

Went to the Morpeth & West Percy Hunt this morning; An excellent turnout on a crisp morning; The Master gave a good speech, slagging off Labour and defending hunting; Good to see a lot of youngsters there; The future ? Hopefully…… Cheers.

I’m sick of hearing the same narrative when Muslims carry out these slaughters from do-gooders defending them anyway they can either “Not all Muslims” “Islamophobia” ect ect ect when mentioning their religion , look what they the powers that be did after Southport , attacked people who where rightfully angry upset horrified whilst holding back information which they knew on the terrorist then jailed people who should never of been jailed which was a show of power to silence us , Israel you may dislike but there mindset isn’t to behead you rape your children whereas as Islam creates this mindse

Something abit different today, marking the walls, she did well, then tried flying

My kids are 30 and 31 , and santa still brings the presents . I never really had Christmas as a kid , but I've f***ing well made up for it since , and have always made sure that the kids get everything theyve wanted. When the kids were young . The front room would be absolutely filled with presents ( up above the window sills sometimes). I'd leave the family asleep for as long as i possibly could , and usually get them all up at about 4.30am , to see if santa had been . They'd spend a couple of hours opening presents , and once they were done , I'd go through the annual ritu

That guy ran in and disarmed a terrorist who was indiscriminately killing people. It doesn’t matter his nationality, colour or religion…..he’s a goddamned hero in my opinion……… Cheers.

As I've a couple of busy days coming up I'd like to wish you all a merry Xmas and Happy New year hope you all have a belter with your familys or how ever you choose to spend it all the best

im meals on wheels today. mother in law has that dementia so i make her a nice dinner once a week. ill have my one tomorrow as i intend going out for a pint or two today. happy Holidays folks.

Every time a right is taken away its a step in the wrong direction.I believe one day even the fishermen will look back and wish we'd all done a better job of standing up for our sports together.

Fished my old clubs Christmas comp. Had a 6lb 7oz Smooth hound. Came first and won £100, so I'm chuffed. I'm not having a shit its just me trying to smile in the cold wind, Lol. Cheers Arry

Well plans changed slightly, we stayed in Alabama and drove down to the gulf coast, stayed a night in Birmingham and spent some time in the civil rights museum, interesting place abd we were the only people in there, was a bit eerie tbh, in fact Birmingham was very quiet for a big city.. headed down to Bayou le Batre, was where Forest Gump on the shrimping boat was filmed, Waylon said it was the only place in Alabama any filming for the film was done, was exactly how we expected it to be, beautiful..but was disappointed with the seafood, shrimps weren't good and gumbo was OK... to be honest o

I got a new watch , and an oven ready turkey.

Started some prep for the buffet tomorrow. Done two ham joints one smoked one not. Six scotch eggs with three different flavoured sausage meats. Had to try one. Some chunky sausage rolls. Some self mini soft bread rolls. Cheers Arry

Nice day out today did a couple Warren's in a roadside hedge for 21 all packed up by 1sh

Couple of cheese and onion pies (was a tad short of pastry ), gave one to next doors cos they're both ill with the lurgy. Cheers, D.

Just watched it having already seen the result. So AJ sold out. It looked as scripted as WWE.., reckon Joshua was told to try and make it look convincing the first 4, then he could close it out. Jake Paul never been or ever will be a boxer, and has all the stamina you’d expect of a blown up bodybuilder. Do I blame AJ for taking the money, maybe not, but I see this stuff as sh!tting on the sport that made him. So fcuk him, this can be his legacy…, and fcuk Eddie Hearn the circus ringmaster too, selling snake oil as sport. And fcuk Jake Paul, fcuking classless moron. Whilst I’m at it, fcuk th

I killed a man with a hammer i like kicking dogs in my spare time get 3 bags of sand on the daily for painting 12 x 12 rooms and a bit of grouting that's how you do it people shouldn't keep shit dogs except from me and my ex hunting lurcher russel with a rear antenna that could pick up signals from putin...don't forget my lakeland well i call it a lakeland youd call it a russel cross and the patt x staff not one of them will jump on my sofa or il pick it by the rear end and smash it off the ground Need to get this wallet emptied to otherwise this week's wages won't fit Yours in s

An even 50 tonight...

Thank you for the kind words Kev.Although I feel they are undeserved.Thank you for the invitation.I had a good time with like minded people.Have a great trip and be safe.Call if you need me.I went to meet 2 strangers and left feeling like old friends.

Hopefully mate, we've covered some miles since Florida Keys and not really had a chance... there's so much to see and do, today's drive through Alabama was a shorter distance, we had more stops, and it blew our heads again! Meeting Rickshaw for a meal tonight, really looking forward to it.. Alabama is stunning!

The young lad using his late grandads gun. He had a few shots then took the dog beating and a couple of drives picking up.

Luckily Edith knows that the mere production of the rifle means that she has to behave like stalking dog. Likewise there are times when she has to live up to her breed designation of sheepdog; not a particularly stylish one .Think of a canine Lemmy from Motörhead rather than the slick things you see on One Man and His Dog. Off duty she gets to follow interesting scents and rummage through brambles in search of stuff. She's pretty hot on woodmice. Today she finally nailed a real prize!

I completely agree with that . Governments don't like real men , that will stand up and fight against them. If you turn them into lesser men , they're easier to control. For my entire life , Governments have been breaking down society . They've broken the miners , they've broken the steel workers , they've broken the ship builders . All communities that would have fought and died for each other. Theyve closed the pubs , where these men would meet , and form stronger bonds , and they've forced the lgbtq agenda so hard , that it just won't be in any way acceptable to be anything l

Asked the lady I buy my quail and rabbits from if she wouldn't mind me coming by and getting a few buckets worth of the poop from under the cages for our compost pile yesterday when I got out new rabbit does and she was beyond happy to let me . Said I'd be doing her a favor more then anything. She's in her 70's ,been fighting cancer last year or so ,and can't get around like she used to and her usual help has been a little spotty apparently.Well came by yesterday to get a few buckets full and ended up helping her kill and process a few of her rabbits along with some other farm chores . Told he

That’s not the truth though . I’ll give two personal examples ; Ive friends I’ve stayed with in Australia who are Palestinian with Australian nationality. Both husband and wife, and their kids are typical Aussies, they love Australia, one is a doctor, the other is a teacher. Another family I have stayed with , the husband is a Sri Lankan Christian , his wife is a Muslim Palestinian, again, both have embraced the Australian way of life. The Muslim shopkeeper obviously put his self in danger to stop a Muslim terrorist from killing fellow Australians who happened to be Jewish
