I went to a very nice Fishing exhibition tonight.
I saw him there.
Mr. Regis Martin is a very important person to my blog.
He is the first reader of my blog.
On the other hand, I sometimes saw him on the fishing magazines.
Thank you very much for your sending some comments to my blog two years ago.
I nearly jumped for joy. ☆⌒(*^-゚)v Thanks!! Regis.
I'd like to introduce Regis's very nice blog to you as follows,
Hi there,
The Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory in Darwin, Australia, will soon have an exhibition about fishing in the NT.
To say that I am excited about it and can't wait to see this exhibition, would be a slight understatement.
Here is a copy of how they announced the show on their web page
Gone Fishin’ – The Reel Top End story
17 March – 16 September 2012
Cleared and stained specimen of the Bluehead Demoiselle, Chrysiptera rollandi, Natural Science collection, Museum & Art Gallery of the Northern Territory‘Gone Fishin’...The Reel Top End story’ explores how fish and fishing tell the cultural, scientific and social stories of the Northern Territory.
Fishing has featured heavily in the lives of Territorians from Indigenous peoples, Macassan fishers, the first European explorers, and early Chinese settlers, to modern commercial operations, and the weekend warrior or recreational fishers. Displayed alongside Indigenous fishing technology are a multitude of colourful lures, jars of weird and wonderful scientific specimens, rock art, natural history art and modern depictions of fish and fishers.
‘Gone Fishin’ charts both the development of fishing and the culture that surrounds it whilst also exploring the future of fishing through sustainable fisheries management, Marine Rangers, conservation, ecology and taxonomy.
On display are objects drawn from the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory’s diverse collections, enhanced with important loans from recreational fishers, NT Fisheries Division and local artists.

For the mad keen anglers and fishers of all sorts, from the north of Australia or from faraway lands and seas, this will be like a very early christmas present.
But hey, it could be worse.
Have a good day,
Me.
