I'm a Network/Computer Systems Engineer. I currently work for the largest independantly owned Telcom provider/ISP in the world. Not a bad gig, but I'd rather be fishing :P


"I fish because I love to; because I love the environs where trout are found,because I suspect that men are going along this way for the last time, and I  don't want to waste the trip; maybe one day I will catch a mermaid; and finally, not because I regard fishing as being so terribly important, but because I suspect that so m

I'm a fishing engineer. I go to lakes far and wide in winter to test the water to see how the fish are doing. In my spare time I'm a registered nurse/counselor looking after substance misusers. I have access to lots of bait. Did you know the oozing serosanguineous fluid from a wound makes an excellent bait enhancer. :sick: :sick: :sick:

I am a computer communications tech guy.  I get to travel all over the world (and fish while I am there) but now I can pick and choose were and when I go so I plan work around fishing trips.  The benefit of being senior tech.
