Had a great day out today with Heaps Good and Andy from this site.

Not had Martin out for ages and I was determined to get Andy onto a Snapper after 4 fruitless trips.

Andy got it in spades today, he pulled in all three fish ranging from 18/16 and 12 lb.
Nice ,healthy looking fish.Neither Martin or I pulled a decent one in.

One the way back we trolled or Snook and pulled a nice few out - until a dolphin chased em' off.

I never really dipped a line but just had great fun sitting back and helping the mates.

Had a great ,feelgood day,great conditions on the water and lots on banter.

Nice to have some Snapper back in the freezer - all fish shared 3 ways as per rules of the boat

Looks like you all had a good day. I took Lisa and the kids up the Glenelg River in the tub today. We managed to catch their first fish but just having them on the water was ace. What a beautiful river too! Big limestone cliffs, birds, tranquility......

It's well worth a visit too, bream and mulloway. It's like a smaller version of the Murray but with way less boat traffic. You do need a Vic Rec license to fish though. $6 for 48 hours, I think the annual one is about $35. There is a section in SA, Donovans, where no license is required.

Does make a nice change from the sea (I'm out in the big swell again tomorrow) and is perfect for taking the kids. Daisy now reckons she's the best boat driver in the world! Not bad for a 6 yr old. My boat has now become 'our' boat. Bugger...
