I ate my real big one's.  Might have to see about another trip to the farm, the lake had some rippers over Christmas, where I proceeded to eat a couple buckets worth....  Mind you, could still be a couple of good size ones in FT, will have to have a look. Cheers Wazza |

I cleaned a farm dam out a few years ago and stocked it with marron. The marron didn't like it so they escaped and died, so I re-stocked it with yabbies, prolly about 75mm long. By the following summer these were the size we were fishing out, quite amazed us. 7 each were a feed!

I get the feeling someone is conceding defeat at this early stage.

Quote: And spoons are not an Australian Standard measurement no, it has been a long established rule on this forum that small children, daschunds and beer cans are standards of measurement. And, all photos must include gratuitous toes.
