About Me
Hi, My Names Rob.. Im now living back in my home country of New Zealand after over 10 years of traveling the world and fishing, I have loved fishing my whole life, have pictures of me with a rod and fish at the age of 4, Ive fished the New Zealand Nationals 2 times and hold a few New Zealand and wellington area fishing records. I still love chasing around bait fish and getting live bait in the water for kingys every summer and really living for fishing more and more as i learn more about life .
My dream is to create the biggest fishing community in the world full of fun fisherman and woman that share stories pics and even one day get to go on trips together around the world and fish each others back yard. Ive worked on this dream for over 5 years and will never stop improving on this idea A Worldwide Fishing Club WorldwideFishingClub.com
.
To have over 10,000 real fishing loving members is the sweet spot Im aiming for at which stage I believe people will update and upload daily by talking to each other, sharing spots, learning tips and making friends. With time i know i can get that achieved and if your reading this most likely we are a little bit closer to this goal.
So if you have any friends family or know any fishos that would be interested in this idea please do invite them to join in and as we grow we grow faster its already happening we are already in the thousands of members stage.
If you have any ideas or questions about this platform im making please message me about them, of course all help is welcome. If you own a tackle company or fishing company and want to sponsor some comps or help out by donating some products for prize packs we hope to start some photo comps and video comps soon and every bit of help helps.
Whatever the case maybe , i look forward to meeting you , hearing and seeing some of your fishing tales and hopefully becoming a friend. Until that time, tight lines and good health.. Cheers Rob

Recreational Fishing
UnitedFuture will create a new category of fish named “Recreational Only Species.” The people of New Zealand will be given the first priority to fish these species, before the profits commercial fishing companies. UnitedFuture believes recreational fishing must come before commercial profits because it is the birth right of every New Zealander to head to the beach to catch kahawai or snapper to feed their family. UnitedFuture will seek to ensure that this birth right of New Zealanders to catch fish in our waters comes before any commercial quota. Kiwi’s birth right to catch and eat fish should not be compromised by companies that catch and sell too many of our recreational species of fish to foreign countries. Our “Recreational... less

I really think there is something there , and im going to look into trading them .. I was lucky enough to be a beta tester for http://www.thebitcoinrobot.com im still setting things up but have a friend who makes 20% on his money each day , its kinda cool i think.

Just thought as i think its cool id post it here and see if any of you want me to post my results from my trades here ..

I've only just been in contact with my friend Andy's , and i didnt know but its his "Video Boss" video course launch 3 today (24th April 2012).
This post is all about Video so if thats not you then no need to read anymore :) bu if there is anyone out there wanting to learn a skill, or really wants to make better videos. I wish i could express here how much i recommend this course.
Ill tell you straight in the last 10 years I have easily spent over $100,000 on all sorts of training online. Sure i got a few gold nuggets from most but really some were not so good, but the one thing they did do was give me shortcuts to help me get to where i wanted to go.
I started learning from Andys about 2 years ago now its by far the best course i have ever done.
Beware this is a professionally made course, not just a put together to sell $197 product, and its expensive , in depth and certainly not for everyone , but I wouldnt waste your time or mine writting here if i didnt think that for some of... less

What we need are a few Badges one we really need is a Foundation Members Badge ..
Actually i think we need a few different badges but for now I just thought id cast out this bait and see if I get any bites. One thing i can say is im no designer i can make this site and spend weeks inviting people to join do all the marketting and keep the spammers away while thinking of new sections etc etc and making our app ;) So if anyone knows how to design a nice badge then great :)
Just upload them here and we can let the members decide which one we should use :)..

Here is a quick run down of the most recent upgrades and what you can now do , and some of the ideas i have for the future.
Badges
Badges is a section i hope we really take to a whole new level
Here is one example i can see.
For those of you in local Clubs , If you have a club Logo/Badge upload a copy to the forums here and I will create a digital badge for you , then you and other members of the same club can show your Club Colours in your worldwide fishing club profiles. Maybe one day we will have lots of different clubs and there can be some powerfull interaction between everyone
There are also badges for most active members and VIP members the list goes on and on and on, You can suggest any badges you like in the forums there will be a BADGES section this is for all badge suggestions.
Pages
The Page Dashboard enables easy creation of you own pages, and allows managing various components of a page listing. • Google... less

We catch a few singray here and when the sit on the bottom you cant move them we hold the line tight and then pluck the line like a gytair and the stingray will normally start moveing so i fully understand what your saying. Cheers for the share

Flounder is one of my favorite fish just there is not much of them so to make a sandwich helps the taste last longer
Heres a quick sandwich to help you need about a kilo to really perfect the fish sandwich on bolillos (Mexican yeast rolls)
If you don’t have flounder and cant catch one or their are none at your local fish market, any bon...
