[@robertlurie3379]

Yep no worries channel 9, you can use my video for the evening news!

[@robertlurie3379]

Drop the rods and grab a net

Greedy media filth. Salmon love herring like a cupcake to a fat kid, when the salmon run I always try and use live herring as bait, the big salmon love it.

I want to go to AU someday and catch some salmon, they're tasty.

[@PlumBoss84]

FroggieTheR0gue You should, as the coastlines of Australia are beautiful. The Australian salmon are pretty poor eating but loads of fun to catch then release.

[@FroggieTheR0gue]

PlumBoss84 Really? Well I catch and release catfish, some people like to eat them, but I don't. I've got a surf pole and I've gotten some sea perch, and I can tell you they all went home with me. AU looks like a wonderful place, I used to want to go to Europe first, if I ever get to travel, now Australia is at the top of the list.

[@PlumBoss84]

FroggieTheR0gue Yeah the Aussie salmon aren't like Atlantic salmon to eat, their only good for making into fish cakes/patties. I do keep some fish I catch like herring which are delicious fresh and whiting, flathead and flounder all which can be caught from shore but the top table fish are mostly caught offshore and I haven't yet got a boat. I've travelled to Southeast Asia but would love to go to Japan, Alaska or Canada someday. I love Australia for the land and the melting pot of cultures, Australia is built on immigration.

PlumBoss84 I saw you telling someone that you're an Aussie with English and Welsh roots. I sort of view it like the US, yes we all have our ethnicities, and are from diverse cultures, but at the end of the day we're all Americans. I don't know why people freak out over multiculturalism, the food is really good. :)
