  1. Not all fish stateside are huge Maty,my ex fished over the weekend,she got a few smallmouth bass nothing over a pound,but she saw a racoon and a few white-tail,I think she is trying to lure me over,she checked up about my bear-tags and everything I must have impressed her back in the days Yeah,she took the pic of the fish upside down,but look at that water,place called smiths-falls,my sort of place,JOE is looking for a holiday invite already I even did an online search,found a 200 acre canadian farm for 175k sterling,cheap as chips Who knows what the future holds
  2. Alligator-gar Maty,prehistoric looking giant garfish,google them,they bowfish them in the states as they grow HUGE!Tried 3 times to wire a pike mate,havent looped one yet but havent given up either JOE took a pic of the last pike I caught a few weeks ago,bit pi**ed-off that night as we needed a wide-angled lens to cover the fish,I think JOE remembers the evening I refer to boys'n'the hoodie night,fished in west-london on the most depraved sink-estate you can imagine,I turned up in rags,joe turned up looking like a catalogue model as usual,he took one look around the area"F*ck-this,I am putti
  3. His accent is the same as mine mate,equally as broad,he was born in Hexham,but it sounds as if he is trying to americanise his accent,but your right,once he ate the anaesthetic-leaf it was suddenly "Bloody hell,me throats gone numb" and he sounded like the big-brother orator.
