A couple of days fishing with the kids.

Got some old "Shikaar" tales to share? Found a great new spot to Fish? Any interesting camping experiences? Discussion of Back-packing, Bicycling, Boating, National Parks, Wildlife, Outdoor Cooking & Recipes etc.

Actually a bit OT, a great method of translocating crocs is at Meat packin plants and BIG chicken hatcheries-all the carrion and offal gets biodegraded and the conservation effort is met too.Only, there'll be a couple of hysterical PETA types whio will crow about the rights of the crocs-o my sweet batuti!

I sent 25 lb mono.

Sanjay, I mostly use Berkley Trilene and find it to be good. Spool up with the Trilene and keep the 25 lb for a rainy day or to make leaders.

Yes Rusty, a very unfortunate incident. For those that didn't know Putta, he's was one of the guards/ghillies at the WASI lakes at Shivasamudram.

A nice guy.

RIP
