It was an even more beautiful day today so we got out bright and early (for us). We sat, and sat and sat and moved a few times before the tide changed and everything woke up. We wound up coming home with 7 big whiting, 7 crabs, 4 tommy ruff and a squid.
The water clarity was amazing today so the crabs didn't stand a chance as we could see them when they went into the pots. We could also see the cormorants diving through the water for fish beside us, a seal who tried to get our crab bait and two sting rays that tried as well. The dolphins were out feeding and a mother and her tiny calf spent quite a while near the boat. An wonderful day.
Then it was back to shore with fish to fillet and freeze and smoke, and crabs cook and pick. Todays catch will give us about 6 meals.

- In Feb 2006 husband Russ and I headed away in a caravan with our boat on top of the 4WD. We were gone for over three wonderful years. Now we're home, living in Warrnambool, but spend the colder months away fishing. This latest blog is a trip up through the centre, across to Broome, down to Perth and home through SA. We'll be fishing, crabbing and squidding all the way!
