Old mate from Melbourne came up to visit and wanted to go for a fish, new forum friend from Ippy and his lad were up in the passage in their boat and we caught up. Also my mate from up the road came along in his "new" Yak. Now this "new" yak cost him a 6 pack of bourbon. He had spent the last few days learning how to plastic weld and lay down fibreglass. So we hit some spots this morning just on sunrise in the yaks . Tide was almost at the top and the moon nearly full. Straight away most of us were getting into them. By about 7am old mate in his "new" yak mumbled something about taking on water and heading in, so off he toddles. He gets about 20 meters away and yells out "Luuuuuuuuuuuke.....", then there was a splash. Old mate went arse up in 2ft of water.:54_002:
Mick from Ippy kindly took him back to the mainland and old mate is now looking to reposess his bourbon and take advantage of his free council tip vouchers
Anyway, some nice fish were boated, we enjoyed some great company and a beautiful day on the water. Best flatty went to Micks young fella at 70cm. My best went 60.
