IOf it's any help to you guys I've been up @ Chipping Norton most days if that makes it any easier to pick up the shirts.

Thought the place was driving me loopy the other night I kid you's not heading east on Newbridge road just b4 the bridge on the l/h side I saw a Moose

Well not quite a moose but there was this stag grazing on a patch of grass wmpty bit of land.

Kamil

well did it have any hair left on its head ??????

Probably was..........

how good is this the shirts are ready, i will be in Sydney for the boat show at the end of the month J.G. so i will send u a P.M. and see when i can pick them up if all els fails i will send u the postage.

JG, I'v got a mate who might be after a shirt or two, large size did you have any extras made up at all???

There was a stuff up & yep there is 2 shirts available

XL short Sleeve

M long sleeve

Also have a 3xl if needed .

Jumpy. I will take the M long sleeve, if I am not too late.

For the life of me I dont know why you went ahead & ordered them after trying them on

Oz, just wear a singlet underneath and leave it open. That'll work.. and you still have your site out there.

mine got here to day, should have ordered 10
thanks J.G.

Yep, too right poly.. I bought a few for my family and friends.. My mate said today he was rapped with the quality of the shirt as well. We both have the Shimano version.

The only drama is that my Shimano on is my lucky shirt. Went for a fish on sunday with the brand spanking new Fishin-oz-style shirt... We came back with nothing

Sorry, i forgot we bagged out on slimies

I am but I did get 3 just in case something like this happened.

As I said for presents and to promote the site, But I did get 1 extra 3xl as a precaution when yah said it would be final with the ordering.

What do you mean 3?? 3 shirts?

Bet you were wearing that Shimano Shirt the other day when you hooked that Monster Rock Cod which snaped your ROD

Well it was on the boat but i wasn't wearing it I dont know if it qualifies

Nope 1 shirt xxxl

Yeh, got my mate a triple and it is a little tight on the belly. But comfy everywhere else. I told him the same thing.

Wearing it unbuttoned qualifies as cool now i think.. Dont know.. I'll have to ask a teenager

excellent ill try to call in soon Jumpus....but first i need to fly home (my arms will be tired!)

when are you home this week?

Picked up shirts and other goodies yesterday, had a interesting info filled time with Frank(Nimrod) and JG....Man did I learn some about fishing! Big thanks to JG and Viva for the shirts!

Jason

As Jason said we collected the shirts and stuff yesterday. Thanks Jason for taking me.

Geeze I am thick, and jumpy,s not much better, I forgot all about ordering the extra shirt, and maybe that means another trip back to the tackle barn.
Had a really good and interesting few ( quiet a few ) hours talking, but mainly listening to Jumpy about the past and the future of fishing.
While there Jumpy presented me with a you beaut looking 15kg game rod, to see what I thought of it.
Beautiful looking rod with all the right stuff in the right places. I felt the weight looked through the eyes etc etc etc as you do when corressing a beautiful piece of work, then came the crunch time, BEND the rod to test the action and strength, bent it over till I had about 3-4 kilo of pressure ( bugger all ) and

S N A P

The top 8 inches in right hand and the rest of the rod in the left hand.

Only the 2nd rod I have snapped in my lifetime of fishing and playing with gear.
I really did and do feel sorry that I broke such a nice LOOKING rod, but as Jumpy said, better for it to happen in the lounge room rather then when a prize fish is on the end of it.
Really sorry Jumpy, but the blank must have had a floor in it.

Frank

OUCH!!! Was it one of your custom rods Jumpy?

I thought not to mention it Frank but it was certainly an interesting moment.

Your right there Bees. OUCH!!!
Il keep it im mind to never bend JG's rod again when i go over, no matter how much he begs me!

Yep, he's asked me to bend a few as well

Which rods are we talking about.

I remembered as soon as I got home from the shops



Na it wasn't on the floor Frank, I had it leaning up against the wall



Salty it was all Franks fault I told him to Bend it like Beckon does but he wouldn't listen to me



Fishing Rods Christos

Oh well SHIT Happens !

I've snaped a few graphites myself but never under load allways doing what Frank did, even snaped a brand newy out of the box showing the boys how to find the rods backbone no load on the rod whatsoever, so here's a few tips for those who own graphite rods.

* It's OK to load them right up they'll handle the load
* Never grab the blank 1/2 way up & try loading up the tip they dont like that, you can get away with it on glass rods but not graphites.
* Use the whole length of the blank to load it up that way you're spreading the load & not just loading up a certain section of the blank.

Nope the rod wasn't one of my custom sticks it was one of the donated rods

if i may say this, when buying a brand new rod always load it up in the shop to make sure that there are no flaws in it, as this has happened to me, when i took the rod out for the fist time it broke on the fist fish and the buggers would not refund my money claiming i must have damaged it in some way

Poly if you returned a rod to me if I owned a tackle shop and said you had fisted a fish I would refuse a refund or replacement too, c-mon mate you're the one who did the buggerising on the poor little fush!!!!!

ouch

Do a spell check.
