Hello readers, bet you had thought i'd disappeared! Well I have been trying to catch some carp to report on but of the last 4 outings all i have caught is doughnuts (ie, zero, nothing, naught). I had no idea that carp would have an off season but through research I have done is seams that even in their homeland they go off the bite in winter. Thankfully winter is almost over here and I will soon get back into a bit off fishing. I look forward to trying to catch one on a fly rod as things start to warm up, that should be a steep learning curve for me as i have never been fly fishing before!
Last trip out to catch these dastardly fish i decided to take my camera as i am also an avid photographer. I'll generally shoot anything except humans. While waiting for bites these 2 birds came down the first is a New Holland Honey Eater, the second a Superb Fairy-wren. They are fairly common Birds in my area and make waiting for a bite a little easier.
