    Here is a real challenge. Non of those wimpy 2 day hikes with to much food stuff. (Sounds to much like what Fario is doing anyway)

    Go catch one of those gold fish on flyrod at those ponds at Grand West casino. Pictures needed for proof. If the picture includes the security chasing you in the background you earn extra points. Even better if you land the fish from the bowsprit of that boat that's parked there.
    THE AFRICAN FLY ANGLER

    If you're fly fishing as though you are 'in a contest', and the only objective is to 'catch fish' - you are missing the point .... and that is disappointing

    "Fly fishing is for those who hold that the fun in the race of life is in the running, not just the winning, that existence is its own justification, that a day spent in a stream or a pond with a goal in mind is a joy even if the goal is not achieved."

    Nick, there's a fishing mag article on it if you Google 'bo-vlakte trout' with all the details

    You know what happened here....A group of guys wanted to go fish and found a place vacant on the weekend of the soccer world cup final. Boys packed their gear and were in high spirits to GET AWAY. Got to the venue, spoke to the farmer about conditions, fish etc etc. Farmer says there are steelheads in the dam....Boys ask....what does it look like??
    Some of you were not too nice. Some were. I was supposed to be on this trip and if the farmer said steelhead, then I wanted a pic. These guys had a ball. Not too many mentions from the posts, congratulate them on having had a lekka weekend of fishing. (Some of those fish are a nice size), according to me....Sooo, some of us have never fished all over the world and some of us are just budget "where can we fish" kind of guys.....Don't knock them straight off because the name was wrong. I bet you these guys had the most brilliant weekends fishing than any of you would ever have.....because of their "gees".
    The "name" steelhead...overshadowed the whole post. The ticking off the specie list was a very tongue in cheek post by me...hence the smilies...and so ja, my tuppence worth.
    *shoot me, but don't go for a head shot first*.....late in the evening
    Behold the fisherman. he riseth early in the morning and disturbeth the whole household. mighty are his preperations. he goes forth full of hope and when the day is ended, he returneth smelling of strong drink and the truth is not with him. originator unknown.

    Rols good on you for standing by your mates !


    The way I see it

    they went fishing caught some awsome fish landowner told them they were steelhead

    they tell their story and correctly someone sets them straight as to what a steelhead is

    Ending one

    they say oh ok cool it was misnamed and they had an awsome weekend catching xxxxxxxxx troot and everyone woulda said cool there are xxxxxx trout to be caught at bo-v congrats


    or

    ending two

    they could go stuff you its a STEELHEAD who are you guys to tell us its not
    we dont give a stuff what you guys think/know we are calling them STEELHEADS and claiming them as a Specie
    Ive got photos of browns to prove they are STEELHEADS
    and all of you guys that are trying to help us with info are STEELHEADS


    and then they wonder why they get sarky comments/posts ??
