Venus Bay

Full Moon Over the Mud Flats

I quite liked the park and little town on Monday, but by Tuesday with the wind blowing and the fish not biting, I took a real dislike to it and wanted to move on. I don't often get like that but I got like it bad!

Town Jetty at Dusk



On Wednesday, the wind eased we went out fishing and I caught three big whiting while Russ caught a good sized flat head.l It cheered me up a lot and I'm enjoying the place once again.

Southern Ocean from Woolshed Cave Talia Beach



Yesterday after a drive around town and then out to Talia beach and caves and Camel Beach, we went fishing for a coupld of hours and brought home 6 big whiting again. Russ caught 5 of them, I only caught one, but it was the biggest at 38cm! I also caught a really big salmon (the biggest I've ever caught) but we don't eat them much except to smoke them, so we let him go.
Back at the fish cleaing table here in the park, it seems we had a pretty good day and Russ had to chuckle to himself when the man opposite us stated that squid is no good for bait!

Southern Ocean


The town is situated on a narrow neck of land with the Southern Ocean and its big cliffs on one side and the large, shallow, peaceful bay on the other. It's really beautiful.
