Your Avatar or Handle

Mame is what Ebay gave me when i registered and the current Avatar is a celebration of playing my part in Scarlet being chucked out.....
 
My job, drilling fluids engineer, commonly known as a mudman. As I am also keen on foreshore wildfowling it also seemed quite apt.
 
Stubear was a nickname I had at school. We were studying AA Milne in English once and a mate started calling me "Winnie the Stu" for a joke, that became stubear and the rest is history.

My avatar is just a picture of me out shooting hehe! It seemed appropriate for SD! :D

I have been called Sharkey since my teens. Many of my mates in the fishing world for the last few decades I doubt would know my true christened name. I doubt I attract sharks, but I they just dont bother me, so I am happy to hang around sharks & keep spearing fish so long as they behave. Yes, I have speared a "few" but only just the "naughty" ones & generally give them several benefits of doubt before deciding upon killing them. Sharks are 10 times more abundant now in Australian waters than at any other time in my lifetime, so my acceptance of them also now allows me a level of comfort in some spots where better divers let thier fear get the better of them. Having said that its only a fortnight today since I speared the last "naughty" shark.
 
Mine is anonomised. I was in the police and my number was 13. I was called once to a nasty and rude man with a crowbar who had confronted my team before I arrived. On seeing me the rather uncouth individual shouted; "Want It Do U?" and so I obliged.

widu was then born.

My .243 is a Weatherby as shown in the avatar.
