I remember Taupo in 1990 when you and Mum each caught trout and I didn't oh wise and noble one! Do you remember the Mangetepopo hut below Tongariro and Ngauruhoe. That's where we stayed one night. Well it was in the Mangetepopo river that started alongside in which, lower down, the Elim College students were drowned in a flash flood early last year.

By the way we still have a photo of you with your first fish. Poppa Jack took you down to the New Plymouth Moturoa wharf near the bottom of Bayly Road when you joined the fishermen's ranks.

Welcome to the ranks of the fishermen Isaac! How big and how heavy was it? Did you know that fish that we catch get bigger and heavier as time passes? LOL fra Farfar
