Adam's fishing tales....he brought home the proof!
Adam went out hunting and gathering this morning on a fishing charter. I stayed home like the good little woman I am (well i did actually go for a long walk in the rain-yep still raining, none of the locals can believe it, when it's supposed to be Dry!)... ;-) ...Adam came home with enough fish for lunch and dinner....for many days to come!
Here's his story: Well I woke up at the crack of dawn....fast fwd......we (myself and two old kiwis +captain robert) travelled many miles out to sea as the gulf of carpentaria is very shallow..........anyway, 1/2 an hour of fast boating got us to some deeper water (still only 6-7ft deep). From first cast it was on.........small sharks, wolf herring (a nasty looking fish with a gob full of big teeth) and the spotty mackerals...........between the three of us we caught 24 mackerals above legal limit and threw back 6 which were just under limit (50cm). most fish were about 2ft long with a couple 2.5ft.........was great fun.......we (myself and the two disgraced kiwis (they caught the least)) finished the day, walking away with 8 fish each, which for emma and I will be quite a few fish meals, with the little freezer being full. Was not the right weather for barra (currently cloudy, windy and raining) so I will try again in around Darwin rivers and north WA.......over and out!
