    G’day Eric, I have a German Wirehaired Pointer and her name is. ‘Gillie’. I named her after my Great Grandfather who was a Gillie in Scotland.
    I have had Labs and German Shorthairs, she is the best dog I have ever had. A great allround dog here in Southern Australia, ย no fear, great on both deer and birds.

    Cheers Boydo.

    G’day guys, I also have a preference for the House of Hardy. My favorite 6wt reel is the Ultralite Disc #6. I have been using this particular reel for close to 20 years and has never missed a beat.

    Cheers Boydo. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

    I have three books on the go at the minute.

    Fifty Places To Fly Fish Before You Die- Chris Santella.
    A River Runs Through It- Norman Mclean.
    Fishing Season- Phillip Weigall.
    The last book is by a local Aussie author and is a very good read.

    Cheers Boydo

    Thank you for reminding me about the Murray Cod Wet :-[. They are quite close to home, as a matter of fact one of my mates caught a 87cm fish the other day! Not on a fly though.
    It could be worse David, it could be Southwark YUK!

    Cheers Boydo.

    PS. Yes I do have mates ๐Ÿ˜‰

    In and around Melbourne we have opportunities at all types of fish and types of fishing. We have a lot of trout waters within a three hour drive and as we are situated on Port Phillip we have salt water as well.
    The main species that I target in Port Phillip are Australian Salmon, Silver and Black Bream, Tailor, Silver Trevally and Flathead.
    Callum is right about Fosters as I don’t know any Aussies that touch the stuff. Cascade Pale Ale or Little Creatures Pale are my favorite tipples ๐Ÿ˜›

    Cheers Boydo.
