Team Delts

March for allot of hunters signifies the start to the duck season, for me that means carrying on our family tradition that i have been apart of for the best part of 20 years which is only just a fraction of the time we as a family have been going to the same spots year on year.    Friday the eve of duck opening i finish work at lunchtime, ute is already packed and i start making tracks towards our destination.    Upon arriving to the lake i set up my blind and throw out the decoys, then make my way to camp and greet family and friends, some i only see once a year for this occasion.    Its my 15 year old cousins first time shooting an opening and he has been so keen for this day for months. He has studied every birds flying patterns annoyed his family and neighbors trying his best to imitate the calls from every bird with his newly bought duck caller. All for this day. Reminding me of exactly how i was when I was a kid asking a milli...

Driving home from a busy week at work i was in need of some stress relief and what better way then a night out under the stars.   I called Emily and with our meat freezer nearly empty we decided on a camping/hunting trip up the hills with our boys.     Arriving to the property we only had a bit over an hour  of light left so quickly setup and headed for a quick hike up the mountain to view a small gully with the boys.   We only seen a few roos and a couple of wallabies. With the sun setting fast we made our way back to camp not wanting to be walking too much in the dark with 2 young kids   Back at camp and light almost all gone we finished setting up camp and lit the fire as Taj was all to eager to roast some marsh mallows.    With the boys getting restless we put them down in the camper trailer for some rest before a early start to try get ourselves a look at a elusive sambar deer.   We were up before the sun, filled...

 After some planning we were off again, this time we were trecking 7 hours to Robe S.A. with a convoy of 10 4x4s.     We arrived in Robe, helped each other set up the camper trailers and caravans and began planning how we will spend the next few days.   1st day and we were off to do some 4wding along the coast, we dropped tyre pressures and began our journey through one of the many tracks surrounding Robe. The terrain wasn't too difficult but the views were amazing. Seemed every corner presented your own little cove and fishing hole.   Second day and the weather turned out pretty bad, really limiting what we could do. The wind was blowing straight into our faces so casting a line in was near impossible. So a day spent at camp was done creating our own little bits of fun from playing cards to a various amount of others games.    Third day and the weather wasn't much better, but we decided to take a drive up to a town about an hours d...

Here i was sitting at home looking at weather reports to find the next few days conditions will be perfect to chase some victorian kingfish.   Spent a short while doing a bit of organising with a few good blokes and before we knew it, the boat was loaded and we were heading to western victoria.   We got to the house late, unloaded the car and boat and began rigging up our rods and planning the following day.   Alarm sounds, we have a quick bite to eat and we are off. Get to the boat ramp and away we go. We stay in close to try and catch some fresh bait. With a few squid swimming in the live bank tank we started heading straight for where we thought the kings will be.   After seeing a small school of tuna and not being able to entice them into taking a lure we make it to where we planned and drop the anchor.   Lines in, berley doing its thing now we wait. After waiting 45 minutes the first reel screams off. Steve grabs the rod and the ba...
