Caryl Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 (Please recognise this was written with tongue firmly in cheek!) :lol: Well, with the hibernation period for driftwood ending September 30, our club decided to head to Hokitika to trap these elusive creatures in their natural habitat - the beach. The search was on... Finding a good sheltered spot among the rocks, the trap was set using a young piece of driftwood as bait After a tense wait, we finally attracted a mother driftwood and baby Caught!! Success at last as the mother and baby are unable to resist our lure We then hit the beach looking for free range driftwood. Here one attempts to escape but Caryl successfully holds on We later discovered a better bait than the one we were using and soon we had more driftwood than we could handle! Leanne proudly poses atop her "kill" While the rest of us hold down a particularly large specimen Another driftwood successfully tamed! We headed home after a fun day with a bootload of driftwood for our tanks. :lol: PS. No driftwood was harmed during the making of this mockumentary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldie Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 It was a fun day. We got up at 6am in Mid Canterbury. The wood gathered was great. Now how many new tanks can be set up without hubby noticing LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suemack Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 Tut! Tut! Luring innocent driftwood with alcohol! Caryl, I'm shocked! On the other hand, am glad no innocent driftwood was harmed in the making of the mockumentary! :lol: ROFL..............that is gorgeous. Hope you're going to put it into the next AW so everyone can have a giggle. Looks like you all had a great time. sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
