G/day all just recently spent easter up tamworth way , stoped in and saw Sumo and his family wed night then thursday headed down to see elma fud [ jasson ] mind you I got lost from the topographic map sumo drew me I went past where i was suposed go , luky i had reception I rang sumo to tell him i was lost , he pointed me in the write direction and was soon getting lost again nearly ended up back at the hairy one way move over dont fart or sneeze goat track , witch is about 2000 ft mountain drop .
eventually I found jassons 4hr later. I set up camp by a river that runs somewhere , and jasson joined me .
asking if it was just the 2 of us in the big tent , I told him i had pepper spray . so we left it at that .
After settling down we grabed the rods and headed down river to where the cod were . we floged a stretch and as usuall the strike came as we were just chating and not really paying attention ,
Well he was a gooden and did me like dinner , a solid fraight train strike and 2seconds later a big NOoooooooooooooo echoed down the river
we headed back and went for a spot light for bunnys that night
friday we headed down the river at a different spot with no luck , that arvo went back past tamworth to pick up my son from weris creek train station as he couldent come up when i did.
we went bunny hunting that night again and next morning we went for ferrell goats and porky's .

Well pretty mutch straight away we saw 3 little pigs but they where behind us and out to the left , we didnt have the rifles out and loaded as we where going further up . by the time we got mobile the 3 little piggys went behind some thick shrubs and fallen timber ,
jasson yelled out i'll huff and i'll puff and blow your house down , but they were to far away by now and i think they gave him the finger.
So off we went and in no time came across some stinkers , and pretty mutch all afternoon.
some again next day allthough we didnt get there till lunch.
we got out a lot and found them down gullys and under shaded trees . we saw a hell of a lot , and one mob there must have been 30-40 .
anyway here's some pics.
