Deano, just after you and Josh gave up I went over and spoke to the couple in the little tinny. He was on fish and casting and retrieving Jackals. We compared technique. He asked what I had been doing so I pulled out a rod having packed up and gave him a demo (with a jackal on) and a couple of meters from the boat Bang On! 48 in the boat, he was impressed
I was surprised
but pleased to finally land something decent on the day.
He pulled the camera but before he got the photothe Bassard twitched and got me a beuty before diving back in
. My thumb beld like a Bassard and even bled again when I took the band aid off the next day.
I went back packed up and went home a happy camper after all.
