Tales From The Tinny: Get A Mullet Up Ya!

Description

It's all about fishing in the Top End ...sort of. Come on a fishing trip to the Northern territory with ABC Darwin's Rob Smith, tim Moore and Mario 'McFadge' Faggion as they chart the croc-filled waters of the top End, doing what they do best - telling tall tales, drinking beer, and crapping on - all from the tinny. As one keen fan put it in a warm recommendation, 'the crap you blokes talk on air is the exact crap spoken on my boat.' And this book is full of it - stuffed full of anecdotes about the colourful characters and wild, vibrant landscape of the top End, but more than that, it's a book about mateship, fish, and the elaborate and exaggerated fishing claims that two guys who have been drinking beer all morning might make. And did we mention the fish? there's a lot of them, including Mullet. And a lot of arguing about them.

Rob Smith and colleague Tim Moore present TALES FROM THE TINNY every Saturday morning out of Darwin, where they both live. Rob is a radio producer with previous journalism experience and has written a number of humorous articles on the subject of fishing for newspapers and magazines.
