We liked them fresh but also preserved them, so they came out like salmon.
My wife loves fishing and always catches more than me – she doesn’t get sick either.
We haven’t been back to the lake in the last ten years so BOP sea fishing is the focus – we just need to learn how to catch them – I am desperate to catch a king fish - anyone interested in a trip?
Owning a boat is a licence to tip money into a deep hole – you should only do it if you can afford it – although not sure that boats are any worse than cars? But family memories are precious so take plenty of pictures while you are out in the boat.

I'm out often mate. Goal to get a kingy on lures this year. Have shot heaps of the buggers but haven't cracked them on the rod yet
