Had a lot of problems getting someone to go out with me this week, of all the problems I thought I might get in a boat, finding people to fish wasn’t one I expected. Found someone willing to go on a Sunday, (hate fishing on a Sunday) but wanted to go to Corroboree. It is 90 mins from mine, freshwater, no bait allowed, and just a beautiful place. Bloody hard to get a fish though. Known for being just about impossible. And so, we got nothing. I have to admit, when you are in freshwater and no bait, it makes “no fish” a bit more palatable when it is so easy to clean things.

Got:
Biggest cat fish ever. Biggest tarpon ever. No barra of course.

Story of the trip:
Never seen the billabong like it, the lilies were so overgrown in areas.  Very pretty, see pic.

Boat problems:
Gawd. Again.
This time I thought that I would certain it would be my first time without a new thing going wrong.
I had fixed the lekkie. Nothing had any signs of going wrong.
Drove and launched with no worries. Boated with no worries.
Lekkie was working great after I had taken the pedal apart and cleaned it.
Drove back and retrieved it.
Drove home.
Unloaded the first amount of gear and I thought to myself while grabbing a beer to sort the rest of the stuff out “this is it. This time. I am in clear water from here on out”
Came back downstairs and the trim was stuck upwards. No f-ng clue why. I can’t sort it, gotta go back into the shop.
It is like the boat is taunting me… and I have a huge weekend planned next hope it is sorted by then.
