I am GAGGING to go fishing!
Thats a weird expression isnt it, gagging to go fishing? Yes it is!! Anyway, it has now been raining pretty hard for a couple of days and the Kelvin is unfishable. There is a possibility that one of the tributories will be fishable as long as their is no more rain but I suppose it…
