Mascular Fishos in tight leather shorts hiding behind the bushes in webb dock. I wonder if there are other fishing holes back there.

I was off portarlington one day and saw something red floating went over to it netted it. And found it was a spray can of zinc galvanised paint floating so just the top plastic red cap was showing. It was 3/4 full and still worked.

Picked up quite a few aluminium landing nets walking the beach.
I also don't buy sinkers anymore, pick up plenty left on the pier + metal detector.

Not really weird per se, but I find a lot of golf balls down the creek which I end up selling on fb marketplace. Also lots of driver's licences, cash and photo ID in general.

Lol. Gardeners creek. I saw them too. Probably run off from the golf course nearby where the creek cuts through. There were hundreds of them after the heavy rain.

Good thing you picked them up. Dogs can swallow them.

I fish LB and have very limited options available in Melbourne area. I notice everything including rock erosions. When you go to a footy game and see someone wearing a rodeo suit or suicide vest, will you take notice? If you will pay no attention, you need to start thinking what is wrong with you. LOL.

Dont you appreciate the fact that now you have an idea where to go?

People dressed in attire with brand logos all over them....
lol, you mean those shirts they all wear? It's like they have to get dressed up to go fishing. The best is the buffs that they were when it's 35 celsius
But that's literally the time to wear them. I only rock them when the uv is really high so the back of my neck and ears don't get crucified. They aren't meant to be neck warmers.

St Elmo’s fire on a windy night in PPB. Climbed up the line from the sinker and onto the rod, then onto your fingers, odd tingly sensation with it. Freaky blue shimmering colour. Didn’t stay out long after that…
