Mark Berg's Fishing Addiction

Mark i have been dating my boyfriend for two years now and he is absolutely fishing MAD! In all honest its all he talks about and i wouldnt be surprised if our future wedding theme was under the sea. Unfortunately for himself he works in a n office environment and doesn't have the opportunity to get out too often anymore, which does sadden himself quite a large deal. He has grown up without a father or a massive male role model or figure in his life, so hasnt had the opportunity to be taught how to fish or cast a fly, or catch that first little puffer fish with dad, on a little jetty on a warm summers afternoon. He would do anything in his power to come for a fish with you as honestly he sees yourself as an idol A FISHING GURU IN FACT.
The prize means nothing to him, its the joy of cool ocean water hitting his face and the big grin he recieves when reeling in a fish, whether its a monster or a little bream caught on a prawn bought at a service station late in the evening.
Mark please take Oscar into consideration as im unsure that you could find anyone for appreciative of the opportunity given.

this is one of the best fishing shows i have ever seen

Sick show Marky Mark your the best,so so jealous of all the people that go away with you

He is always working and always says that being on the water is the only place he can relax. He can forget about life for awhile. We all love your show so keep it up!!!!! Talia, Jessica and Ciara

Hey Mark I realise you have alot of other really deserving men and women that should go on your fishing trip of a lifetime. I think you should pick my dad, hes always watching your show and when I sit down and watch it with him hes always telling me about how much he would love to go and do that. He has only been deep sea fishing once and has been talking to me about doing it again. He is a very caring man and deffinatly deserves a break from his job of truck driver about 14-16 hours (min) per day. Which is very hard for him considering he has 5 girls and my mum here at home. He is always working hard for us and i think its about time we do something good for him like your show. Thank you for taking the time to read this and i hope you choose my dad :) Keely.

love your show man

G'day mark i would love for you to take my dad on a fishing adventure of a life time. this would be great for him because he is hard working man and a great dad and he loves his fishing. it would be good for him to go because he is never been just fishing when ever he goes he is all ways doing something for me and my brother and never gets to fish himself. it has been his dream to go and just catch some huge and good fighting fish. he has not a had a good trip fishing in a long time they have been full of strees wile fishing. i would love him to just have good trip and relaxing time and catch some huge fish. i think he would love and i would love for him to have a great fishing adventure of his life time. it would be a great opportunity for him thanks. daniel

Hi Mark, I am probably the most addictive fishing women you would ever meet. Ideally i would love the opportunity for both myself and best friend if possible to share in the experience to catch the quota for the fishing competition. This would complete the one and only request in my bucket list. I have a 90 year old mother who is mad about your show as well and every week when we sit watching says...ENTER ..you never know. Well have done that now i will patiently wait and see if i am selected. Many thanks for taking the time to read my request. Gail

Hi Mark I saw your show and thought it was great I would love for my son or sons to go on your show - My youngest son loves to fish he is 47 and was a rigger and loved to go fishing on his days off he has been a hard worker all his life until he had kidney failure about 5 years ago - he was on dialysis for about 4 years every second day he could never go on holidays. But his older brother has given him one of his kidneys and it saved his life - I am so proud of both my sons they are wonderful sons and good family men. My oldest son has 5 girls and my youngest 2 sons. Their names are Mitchell and Lachlan, I would love you to pick them for a fishing trip as they would love it. They are strong boys so would be able to handle it. Lachlan now has a new lease on life with his new kidney. I saw the fun that the man from Port Kembla had catching his fish. Thanks Mark

Hey Mark, I would love to nominate my step dad Brett to be guest on your show. Not only is he an extremely knowledgable, experienced fisherman he's a top bloke too. It would be pretty awesome to reward a hard working dad with a fishing trip with you. All the best :) Happy Fishing :)

Hi Mark, I would like to nominate my husband for your surprise fishing show, he eats, breaths and lives for fishing, He as had a knee reconstruction and fishing is the only sport he can do, but thats OK because he loves it, bought a little Stacer recently and takes it the coast avery chance he gets, he watches your show all the time and I would love to see him on it.

Hi Mark thanks for your great show my Brother Chris is a really keen fisherman he learnt from my late father who was also a very keen fisherman. Chris has been the rock for our family since my father died. He is the one closest to mum and him and his wife are the greatest people ever. He drops everything to help my 80 year old mum besides have a wife and 3 children of his own. His son is also a keen fisherman. He has had some bad luck lately being broken into at his workplace 3 times in the last few months. He is a hard worker and also a genuinly nice person who would help anyone. Also he is the spitting image of my late father whom he got his love of fishing from. He has helped me so much especially when my 4 year old daughter was killed in a car accident. He really deserves someone to do some thing nice for him for a change. Please consider him for you show it would just make his day and I believe all the people he helps would agree to. Thanks Mary-Anne

Hey Mark,My son Bradley 10 years of age and my Husband Ashley 47 years of age LOVE Fishing. They are members of the Binda Fishing club. Ashley works as a casual labourer in the Upper Lachlan Shire Council. They love watching you on the show and all the other fishing shows that are televised. They don't get to go fishing very often and to be taken on one of your adventures would be like living a dream for them. Mark PLEASE take them FISHING

Hi Mark Thanks for a great time in PNG the fishing was awesome, village great and the company superb. hope all goes well with the new series and again thanks for a great experience in PNG. ...2 years and still fighting ...Brad

Hi Mark, my husband thinks he's a fishing addict but don't you have to catch a fish to qualify? I would class him more as a fishing tragic! Seriously he loves fishing and would just love to go fishing. He has a boat which he is restoring but his health is holding him back. He had a serious car accident in 04 which put an end to his career as a fireman and since then has had 3 heart attacks and last year a bout of lung cancer. He watches your show each week, and I can see the wistful look in his eyes. Anyway... keep on doing what you do... it gives lots of fans such a chance to escape for a little while, dreaming of fishing. Cheryl Ayers

Hi mark love your fishing show every sunday morning on foxtel i go to my dads place every sunday just to watch the show and every time i watch the show i always say i wish i was there on the end of the fishing line pulling that fish on the boat i haven't been fish for about 6 years When my father inlaw past away i stopped going and now it very slow but seeing your shows i wish i was there and i say that to my dad every week because he waits for me every sunday after mum had past away 9 years ago due to cancer and my brother had comitted suciude due to marrage i hope one day we meet have a good fishing and bring mor on tv

Hi Mark my husband Phil is the keenest fisherman i have ever met he watches your show all the time and if he cant be home from work when its on he will record it, so you could say its an addiction. Now my 3 children also share the passion and all our holidays revolve around where we can go fishing. Im not the keenest fisher but totally enjoy your show as its great to see the joy you bring to these people. It would be the dream of his life to be able to just meet you let alone go fishing with you. Keep up the great work and we enjoy and will continue to watching you.

high mark.. love the show .. i am a keen angler and always enjoy your show although it is a dream of mine to0 fish the top end for some big barra and palagic species i havnt got there yet however i would like to take this opertunity to nominate my step father barry to come on a fishing adventure with you. he is also a keen angler but he doesnt often get the time to go fishing as he is a linehaul truck driver and at 60 years of age he does an incredible job of juggling work and home life . he hasnt had a holiday in years and i know he would love to wet a line with you.. thanks for the oppertunity to nominate a great man and one of my best friends ... tight lines.. garry

Hi Mark, My dad, Gary loves his fishing and always has done. He used to take my brother and i fishing when we were kids but would spend more time intangling our lines instead of fishing himself. He is now a member of an angling club and so is my brother. He has been a truck driver for years with the same company and has had a few health issues including a triple bipass and shoulder operations. He also has glaucoma which is affecting his vision. If you could find a spot for him on one of your trips he would never believe it was happening to him. To be able to take his two fishing mates his son and son in law would make him so happy. I know you can't take everyone who writes to you but "you gotta be in it". Thanks Leah.

i would love for you to take my partner with you as he never gets to go out now that we have a 4 year old and a new born baby. he is crazy about fishing and this would be a great experience for him. thanks

Hi Mark
Both my husband & I would dearly like to be on your show but I feel he deserves it much more than me. He does his full day at work & a couple of security shifts at night within his work & if thats not enough he is on call 24/7. I would love for him to be able to go out fishing with you & be able to get away from it all for a while. I would also like to see more women going out fishing on the show as some of us would really enjoy it.

I walked in on my husband yesterday sitting watching your show and the look on his face was bliss, he really loves this show so I thought I would sit down and watch between my busy schedule as we have 4 kids, after actually watching the show I realised that these were real people not professional fishermen after watching I got the idea of how the show works and my first thought was how much my husband would enjoy this. He is just an ordinary guy but to our family he is the world we don't have a lot of money but to send him away as a thank you for all the hard work he does would be the best. Thank you

love the show mate. It's great to watch fisherman like myself how don't get to chase the big boys out there getting a chance.

love the show, real good seeing fisherman like myself how only catch small fish from banks out catching the big boys.

hi mark, love your show, if you still take people fishing my partner joe watches your show all the time would love to consider taking him on a trip of a lifetime, we live in townsville cheers debbie

Hi mark, my names joseph. my stepdad watches ur show every day. he would really thrilled if got to be on the show with u.his name is gary . fishing is is his life. he doesnt get to do it often but wen he does hes the happiest person in the world. thanks and hope u pick him.

VIN HORTON 66 HI MARK I have been a sales rep for nearly 20 years with the same company and work 6 days a week. AS you can imagine i don't get to fish very often. AFTER smoking for 47 years i gave the smokes away and my wife let me buy a 4.7metre boat called RUSTY.I love watching your show when i can and would love to catch some of the fish that you do. thank you

Hi Mark,
My Husband has been working in Roxby Downs for 6 years and hasnt had the oportunity to fish for some time, we watch your show every sunday and we all love it!!! Please take him fishing with you and get him away from all the red dirt. Thank you

Sue Robertson
Hello Mark and Team. My 12 year old grandson watches your show with us and just lives and breathes fishing and would fish 24/7 if possible! We would love so much for him to be able to join you on a fishing addiction adventure. Many thanks.

Hellow Mark Bergs my name is James Turner and I am only 13 years old and I have always dreamed of going on your fishing show of a lifetime. Me and my dad Mark would really like to come. In 2008 our family of five moved countries from South Africa to Australia it really was sad moving countries. Know we live in NSW Port Macquarie 135 Riverside drive on the North Shore. Me and my brother Bryce go fishing every weekend on the river in our boat, we normally try and chase some Flathead and bream we catch but not always the biggest. I watch your show every weekend and I just dream of catching Giant Trevally,Yellow Fin Tuna and my Favourite fish the Spanish Mackeral. If you want to call us you just phone 0450110836 thankyou.

hi mark my name is ross i live to fish but i don't get to go much and would really like the chance to win a trip with you ,i watch your show every week.how do i enter to be able go on one of these events.

jake

Good Morning Mark, I would like to nominate my step dad, Gordon to go fishing with you, anywhere really. Our Sunday ritual is watching your program on Lifestyle, he loves the places you go and the magic fish that you catch. Gordy works very hard helping everyone in our family, he loves fishing but rarely gets time to go now. It would be a wonderful way to thank him for all the special things he does especially for me and my sister. Fingers crossed Kara

Hi Mark, My husband loves your show,we lives in melbourne, his job gives him alot of stress, i would love for him to get away for afew day to think about nothing but catching that big one,he has never caught anything bigger then 5kilo snapper,So for him to have a dream trip fishing with you would be like a kid in a candy shop, Regards June

MARK
my husband watches your show on pay tv all the time and I know he would love to go fishing to the top end with you. He loves fishing and this year bought a boat to fish in westernport bay. please, please please choose him to go with you on one of your trips. he manages a farm which is a 24hr a day job and really needs a good break. thanks Ann

Hi my name ihave always q
Wanted to go fish the topend but find hard to go with kidney failed can you help me if so thank you

Hi Mark, my name is Charles Galbraith and I am 12 years old. I live in Ayr,Queensland.I love your show.When it is on if anybody makes a noise in the house its trouble.My greatest,most deepest wish is to go fishing at the Gulf of Carpenteria for some monster 1m+ barra with you and my dad.

my uncle viv would love nothing more than to have the chance to come fishing with you! he is part of a fishing club and is fishing mad!! as well as this he is hillarious and would be awesome fun. peace.

I would love my husband to receive the "tap on the shoulder" and be sent chasing yellow fin tuna. That is his dream to escape the pressures of his own business and land and fight a big tuna. I can keep secrets and would to share the surprise with him. We all love watching the show as a family - that is rare these days. Keep up the great work Jan -

Hi, My husband Michael, ALWAYS watches your show...he loves fishing, and even more enjoys eating fish. He's having a birthday in November and I'd love to surprise him with the "fishing trip of a lifetime" with you in some remote area of Australia. This would be a dream come true for him! And he would be forever in my debt.. Kindest Regards, Isabel

great show............a favorite of our entire family. My husband & son have all the gear and send their time fishing & checking out tackle at every shop we pass. At 17 it is good he has a passion for fishing as there are activities out there that will lead them astray.

I just want to know why the winners of the fishing trips are never from South Australia? I have been watching the shop and I even have it linked on Foxtel but yet seen someone from SA win.

Great show bud keep up the good work

Dear Mark Berg,

My name is Ashley and I am alomst 5 yrs old. I like your show very much. I watch it lots because I like to see you catching big fish. My daddy loves fishing too and we went to Maryborough with some friends to go fishing. I caught 6 fish and my dad & Terry caught none!! Even when we didn't catch anything and my dad wanted to go home, I said "No daddy! We can't go until we catch a fish!!" I would love to come and catch big fish with you. My dad says he would be able to come and help too!! from Ashley

Hi Mark - this is a massive long shot, I would love to some how enter my husband to be on your show. He is the greatest husband and really looks after me. We recently got married on the banks of the brisbane river as it needed to be near water and honeymooned at Port Douglas hoping to get him a GT that he so desperatley wants. We had foxtel connected a while ago so he could watch sport all year long US basketball and NFL in the australian off season, however everytime he sits down to watch something its on fishing show on the lifestyle channel. 2 years ago I took Damien to Townsville where I am from to catch a barra that he hadnt yet netted. I took him on a great personal charter and he netted a great queen fish, the last cast of the day and the rod was going nuts and he tells me to pick it up and I land a 97cm barra whoops.. The fishing on the honeymoon despite 2 charters and me being sick sea all day just didnt deliver.. I would love to see him land a GT the fish of his dreams and you seem to do this weekly.. Thanks for continually making peoples dreams come true.. I am sure most arent concerned about the 5k prize as its such a thrill to be out on the water..

Thanks Tegan Humphreys

Hi Mark
my husband paul is a very keen fishing man he love to go fishing when ever he can, but unfortunely he does get out much due to work and family commitments,we watch your show regular on the weekends on life style he says all the time that we wishes he could go on one of those fishing trips. We live in the central west of nsw, so it is very rare to get to the ocean to fish when we do we seem to spend so many hrs out fishing but never seem to catch any thing, i would love for you and your team to give Paul the dream of hes life and take him on one of your trips
thanks Tania contact on sharpt63@hotmail.com

I am 53 and am a keen fisherwoman, but I haven't been fishing since I lost my partner in June. I have been on two fishing charters and loved it. Would dearly love to go again. Get the spark back into my life. Jenny. My email is jenowen@bigpond.com.

hi my husband watches your show everytime and loves it well he loves anythink to do with fishing. I was just wondering if one day when you can would you be able to take him out on one of your fishing trips he lost his uncle to a heart attack not so long ago and his uncle keeps going to hospital with multipal problems with his body and his family is not near him so they cant go with him. all he ever wants to do is fish and always going to kholo for lungfish i want him to get out and get a big fish that he would be proud of. my facebook acount is keithsbluetuna@hotmail.com i would love it if i was to get an email from you or one of your assistants thank you! tiffany

Hi Mark, my name is Nerida and I live on the beautiful Sunshine Coast with my partner Gary Bingham. Gary is absolutely obsessed with fishing and has recently bought himself a great little boat to continue his passion. We lost my stepfather to cancer in early July, so life has not been so happy or joyful lately. Gary would be so excited if he were chosen to go fishing with you and it would go a long way to making him smile again. my email address is npfitzner@hotmail.com - I would love to hear from you! Nerida

Hi Mr Berg,
I am writing to you on the behalf of my family. My father loves fishing very dearly and it has been his dream for some while now to go out and go fish with a pro like you!! He was diagnosed with pancreatitis wich is when your pancreas gets sick and doesn't work properly. My father can hardly eat anything that is fatty as he will become sick but one of the small things that he can eat is fish. So please hear my plea and at least consider taking my dad out fishing as it would do him some good and I would hate to know that his dream didn't come true!!! Please help and take my dad out it would be an absolute honour if you could.
From a fan,
Tianna

Hey Mark, my name is Teleea Rudzitis and i am the daughter of Les Bruton, My dad is a huge absolutely a freak when it comes to your show. it would mean the world to him if he could go fishing with you. to tell you the truth he would probably pee his pants or swear a lot but i absolutely know he would LOVE! So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE choose him it would be a dream come true for him Thanking you .Teleea

hi mark berg my name is Phillip Frith it would be my dream to go to Arno bay and catch the snapper of a life time i live at 17 Margaret ave 5108 Salisbury SA please mark berg can you please take me fishing

Hey Mark, my name is Tahlia Smith and I am 12 years old. I live in Cairns, Queensland and am the keenest fisher women alive. I watch your show every week and am always wishing to be out there with you. I have been fishing ever since I could pull in a line. Whether the weather is down or not my dad and I go out fishing every chance we get. I don't fish to be competitive, but just to have a great time. I would LOVE!!! to be on your show catching massive reef fish, not only to have an unforgetable time but to show that girls can pull up as big as fish as men can. I am not not your average girl. Instead of playing with barbie dolls and wearing pink, I was playing with my fishing rods and always having the scent of fish over me. It would mean the world to me for you to take me out reef fishing.
Thanks

Mark, my husband and i watch all of your shows. I think that he has used up all the space on the Austar with your recordings. Yes he would love to be on your show. But he has one problem...whenever we go out fishing he never catches a fish. In fact our eight year old daughter caught one and he did not. Trust me when I say she has never let her father forget this. He may be the first to go on your show and not catch enything. Anyway he would love the fishing and I would love for him to go...with you. Thanks

hey mark u should be friend on face book lochlan

Hi Mark, My husband and I watch all your shows. Every time he watches your shows he tells me "I wish I could be on his show" He gets so excited over fishing , he truly loves it. He loves it so much that all our family holidays must have any form of fishing activity. On his only day off, if he is not fishing, he is watching all your recorded fishing shows. Please, please, please..... Make this dream a reality for him to be in your show???????

Hello Mark & Team.
My name is Natalie Peters and my husband Rowan since swimming out of the womb has been a fishing addict. He enjoys all forms of fishing but loves his very first type more than any other, Freshwater Trout fishing. He has travelled to Ebor(NSW) every year for the past 7 to catch Rainbow & Brown Trout. His whole life and susequently ours evolves around this annual trip of 7 days in "Heaven"as he calls it. He buys gear, watches dvds and all the programmes on either the Lifestyle, Aurora and the One Channels,at one stage we had 123 fishing shows recorded on the austar box with no capacity remaining.He works really hard managing an Inspirations Paint Store on the Gold Coast which can be stressful but he never whinges or complains but treats everybody as if he were in their shoes. He loves your show Mark and would go mental if you chose him for one of your amazing adventures, which incidentaly would make sensational TV then everybody can witness what I have to go through. He talks about you like a current mate and even my 15 y.o and twin 4 y.o daughters have to listen to him going on and on about what you do.Please consider him for an episode as us girls need a break from the constant barage of fishing talk!
Thanks for your time Nat.

can you come and pick me up for a fishing adrenture

Hi Mark
its refreshing to watch a fishing show thats informative to the average fisherman, not over the top.
We enjoy watching Mark's enjoyment as he enjoys the winners on his show.
Born with scales is the only way i can describe my Husabnd.
Since the age of two his Grandfather , tied a rope around his waist and they fished Sydney harbour in the old family Boat,any catch would feed the locals at the local Pub.
When Grandpa passed away(Captain Nim Dennis named him,) it was a fishing Day evert Sunday with his uncle Ronnie, whos favorite saying's
were, ( If its too big for the frying Pan, put er back,) and (big volumes of water), if a storm was brewing.
Instead of playing sport or hanging aroung kids his own age, Dennis would rather fish off the the rocks .

Hi,
I writing to you on behalf of my Mum, Carol. My mum loves nothing more than going out in her tinny on the Shoalhaven River (she lives in Nowra) for a fish. She never cares if the weather is bad, she just loves to fish. She is also really good at it, she has won the local fishing competion overall champion two times in a role, a first for a woman!. Lately though, she has not been able to get out and fish as in last month she found a lump on her thigh, that ended up being a malignant sarcoma which got removed, including her whole side thigh muscle, just two weeks ago. She is doing really great though and has a brillant positive outlook. She always watches your show and I heard her say the other day "I haven't seen a woman on the show yet". Maybe you can help with this?
All the best, Brooke.

hi mark, my name is jacky my boyfriend and i have been together for almost a year and through that whole time he has spend more money on fishing gear then he has me.. he is obsessed with your tv show everytime we watch tv together its always your fishing show he has recored while he was at work. lately he has not been able to go fishing as we have moved abit to far and i can tell he misses it like crazy.. please help me cheer him up with the chance to go fishing with you! hope to hear from you soon jacky.

Hi Mark, my partner has a fishing addiction but due to where we live it is a fair hike to go anywhere fishing. He has grown up fishing the creeks around were we live and on occasion we make it to a dam which is about 4-5hrs drive. He loves his fishing and has always wanted to go on an awesome fishing trip up North or even Deep sea fishing; he has never had the opportunity to do either. We both watch your show and he bugs me and says "If you love me, you would do that for me" He doesn't know but I thought it would be worth a shot to send a message and see how I go.... He really is the love of my life! He would love the opportunity and it really would be a trip of a life time for him! Look forward to hearing from you soon, Cheers Tamara

The best thing about mark's show is that us wives can watch it and find the fishing show INTERESTING. My husband Greg said this morning as he watched the show, "He would outfish Mark if he was on the show". Made me get inspired to write in. Let me know how to surprise my workaholic hubby to explore Tassie - he has always wanted to fish around there. - Too rough for me.

Hi Mark,
My husband is a mad fisherman who has been talking about taking a boys fishing trip for as long as we've known each other - however it's never quite eventuated despite my encouragement. We are now about to have our first baby and as life is about to change dramatically, I was hoping he would have the opportunity to go fishing on your show before another few years glide by. Our holidays have generally included some fishing (Exmouth - his favorite place in the world!), however he is always talking about fishing in the Northern territory, but has never quite made it. I'm sure he'd be up for any of the challenges you throw his way! Hope to hear from you soon! Gloria

Becuase we are used to catching little fish off the warf. Me and my dad are very keen fishermen and have not missed one of your shows, we would be late to a party because your show is on. This woul be an opportunity of a lifetime. p.s its my birthday soon ;).

HI Mark recently my dad Craig had a storke and now is unable to return to work,
i am his son Chris (15) an would love nothing more than to see my dads face light up with you coming and taking him on one of your trips.
He is a very keen fisherman telling me all these wounderfull stories of when he was young fishing of the Lee Brake water in Portland.
He watches your show all the time and i thought this could be my oppertunity to give him a great time.

Hello Mark
Greg has been spending most of his boy and adult life absolutely absorbed in Fishing from Jetties/ Boats /Rocks anywhere , anyhow he can Sea and River He is like a Mad Man - he could be totally exhausted but still be too excited to sleep waiting for the next morning if he knows hes going out to catch something.. even comes home from work -we live 2minutes from the beach but will drive 2 hours to catch squid on the peninsula or drive Non Stop to the NT if a mate says lets go Fishing..It is definately in the blood

Hi Mark, I'm actually asking for my husband to go on your show he's originally from Darwin NT and grew up fishing we now live in Sydney and for him it's just not the same. He really misses his fishing and we spend alot of our weekends watching all these great shows. I was hoping this would give him an opportunity to physically get to do something he loves. Thanks

how do you go into the copitishon

My Son Grant (36 yrs) has terminal cancer (stage four renel cell carcenoma). He is a fishing fanatic and if he could somehow get on your show it would be a tremendous boost for him.

Regards

Ken Lagastes

Hi Mark, got up this morning and as usual your show was on the tv my husband Chris gets so excited about fishing. He used to go the seal rocks every year before I met him now with 4 children he never gets to go out. We just spent a week at the Entrance NSW and what did he catch nothing but a few little bream he gets so upset he spends a fortune at BCF and always trying to get that big one to keep. He said to me this morning while your show was on that when he is in BCF he is always looking over his shoulder in the hopes you might be there ready to take him off somewhere great to go fishing. So I would be most thankful if you could get him out and take him on the fishing trip of a lifetime. Thanks Delina Cook

Hi my name is Elli Callaghan my family recently relocated to Sydney as my husband, Harry Callaghan found employment. He is originally from Kempsey but lived in Taree for 22 years. Fishing has always been a passion of Harry's that helped him destress and get rid of the cares of the world. While residing in Taree fishing was a regular weekly routine and often he would leave at daybreak and not return until later that night, sometimes he would catch some fish other times he wouldnt. Harry watches your show all the time and when he does I cannot get any sense out of him. His greatest passion is to go fishing in the Torres Strait area as he has friends from the Thursday Island area and they say there is no comparison to the fishing there. Please please could you put him out of his misery and take him fishing so I can get some peace.
