Super trip.
Excellent sandwiches. Thanks Arnab, Rufus and Vimal.
Thanks for the "Puliyogare', Navaneeth.
The kids enjoyed the trip most of all. They got into the water(happy), got wet(thoroughly enjoyable without Mummy scolding), and caught fishes(Ecstatic)
Except poor Madhu, He had to hear which cartoon character was the strongest in thousands, Millions, zillions etc. He was also educated in how to send dinosaurs out of the solar system as well as new type of English language.
"If a car has accident at such and such a speed it will become pudi pudi."( Powdered in Kannada)
Hope Madhu's partner will forgive him his new English.
Regards,
Nayak. |

What driving? All you guys behind me were picking up your cars and placing them down gently at every pothole. Wasting time !
We could have covered more spots but for you guys.

Dinesh Has named Preetham "The Lucky Star" and he wanted the The Lucky Star to catch some shrimps for him! 
@dinesh
You must have started a shrimp Pickle company as Trevor said!
I have 43 channa marulius Fry ...

Navneet yesterday I collected the shrimps stock from Madan,& this lot was collected under the Kanakapura brdge. On closer inpection of the same at my place I found them to be infested with parasites on thier body.I was left with no option but to destroy the whole lot  .All of them were ghost shrimps.Maybe they are gonna start haunting me I suppose
Regards
Dinesh. |

Mr. Madan, if we hadn't picked up our cars and placed them down gently at the potholes, you'd have been picking us up from the potholes and placing us down (gently or otherwise)
Pics coming soon! |

Can some one source me floats and lead weights for our nets.
These 48 and 56 inch wide nets are trouble to use, we collect in shallow water and we need nets no more than 24 - 30 inch in width.
I have the net, but without floats and weights it's useless. |

Come on guys i'm not that lucky, I just caught a few fish thats it nothing important. I am still learning a lot from the big guns in the hobby. Trevor's green nets really inspired me last time. Thats one of the reasons I got mine made to that size.
You had to hear the kind of questions the welder was asking me when he was making the net frame. I told him it was to catch the arowana in my 5 foot tank to impress upon him the size I really needed. The other customers were busy laughing when my back was turned.
The things we do for the hobby..... |
