You're suffering from an obsession I share, bassfishing!!!! Thanks Herman!
OBTW saw a program called extreme fishing of some sorts on the tube the other night and the guy was somewhere in the tropics and by accident I heard him asking his guide what would be the best day for fishing and this local guy answered "four days before new moon" so it's not a South African old Boere-raad-story, it seems there's some sort of common reasoning behind it? But then again the only days that I like fishing is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, my birthday, mothersday, fathersday, St. Valentinesday, New Yearsday, the Wife's birthday and all 362 public holidays we have in SA.
