I decided that the best way to spend Christmas eve is with the 2 most important people in my life.. my kids. Enjoying a swim over Radical Bay on Maggie island and indulging on some nice snacks. We truly are lucky here in this part of the world to get to enjoy such a beautiful environment we have. So enjoy, be merry, and embrace the company of family and friends on Christmas day.
Merry Christmas, from us, Josie, Izzy, and yours truly.
I guess this means one thing?
Meterys in super shallow water are always memorable. The initial bite is often explosive, then it's usually airborne from there on. Each release is often a lottery if you get a gentle swim away or quite often you get saturated!!!!
What's a stability test without some fishing??
My little barra boat is due for a bit of an upgrade and revamp soon after many years of constant work. Who wants me to return her to the old bionic blue of the early days??
Well, I finally had a day off. And the promise of a variable 10 knot forecast seemed too inviting. So after what has seemed an eternity with these strong trade winds I managed to get the new boat out for more testing and giving the engines a bit of a stretch. While in the video it was nice in Cleveland Bay, further out in Cape bowling green was quite the opposite with winds pushing that 20 knots barrier. Mainly went searching for new ground and managed a nice Spanish, spotted and doggie mackeral. Mate Ray lafferty unfortunatly dusted by a couple of big trout and also had a ball in the arvo on big queenies. A lot of people ask me if I go fishing in my free time and honestly I don't have much of that these days... was great to just go out and do whatever while having a few laughs with mates..
Heading towards sunset....
