"The Dromia Rule"

Deer Stalking… reliable word of mouth recommendation from someone you know has undertaken such stalking being offered by a specific syndicate is best. Like other walks of life, stalking has its scammers. E.G., make sure there is deer, of the species sought, on the land being made available; that appropriate insurance is in place; that there is recourse for recompense if it all goes wrong. In addition, obtain and understand terms and conditions; consider the implications of allowing a syndicate leader to be a FAC mentor; make sure ‘coaches’ are suitably qualified; consider the quality of deer management, the construction & execution of a shooting plan and safety; determine if the land is over-shot.

If in doubt, contact BASC or similar.

Anyone considered to be a scammer will be banned without warning.

Badly bitten on my thumb and index finger with several lacerations that bled for 20 minutes!

What did it? A 17lb salmon that I was try to remove the hook from.

About 19lb ... and returned as she is almost ready to spawn. For comparison, the forceps in the picture are 135mm long

Another nice fish :good:

I don't know much about Salmon (Carp fisherman) - Are the two fish in the photos the same species (was the first one a male?)?....and what is the preference for eating, between species/sexes?
