My hobby

[Steve.r]

I don't want to hijack your thread Steve, but maybe other people can share their hobbies too here.

I have a lot of hobbies, well, used to. I used to be into motorbikes, but I don't have one here in the Uk now. But I have been a lifelong fisherman which I can do here and at our home in the Philippines. Recently I have been fly fishing with my Dad and caught some nice Trout. A few days ago I decided to try and tie a few flies. It is incredibly difficult and intricate so as a noob, I think I did quite well. Showing my little son Vincent what I was making, he said 'Daddy, can you make me one.... a red and black one' So I did. That led me to making one for Jasper, and as we call Wasps 'jaspers' it had to be yellow and black, then one for Lenii my daughter, which as a fly is a bit 'out there' but pretty like her.

a few others I made





My other hobby is shooting. I have a Webley FX2000 PCP air rifle, and enjoy hunting at a local farm. Keeping the rabbit population down is our directive from the farmer and in the longer evenings it is good sport as well as effective vermin reduction. Recently, I have been watching Youtube and seen how these people video their hunts with cameras rigged up looking through the scope. So with time on my hands, I had knocked up a rig for my rifle. Yet to be tested in the field, I hope I can capture some nice footage. Anyway, it took some thinking about but I got if done.
