Kids have so much energy.......they were up early and bed late, swimming, fishing and kayaking all day.
The fishing was a bit slow Sat, Sun and Monday but good size cod and something I havent seen landed for sometime a John Dory

Funny you ask that...there we are fishing away at black reef, big hook ups and then a line comes in all tangled and stuff. Thinking its my line that's been caught up in all this I disconnect his trace (cut it in to lots of pieces) and worked out it was just a heap of braid from some other poor suckers line. So what's a man spose to do??? we pull in this line and guess what's on the end off it???? yep one of those stupid expensive jig things. Not to let an opportunity pass by, we hook this stupid thing up to a rod and fuck me .
True story....
