Today we had decided to go across to Monkey Mia to fish, there is never many fish there but we have caught some large cod there and I caught a large mulloway  in that area, we were hoping the girls could get onto something nice.

The weather was nice a little windy but not bad, but unfortunately as usual there lots of grinners and not much else, I  did catch a couple of very large smelly catfish which we have never seen there before, talking to the locals they say they are just getting reports of the cat fish.

We spent the day trolling and trying lots of different places but not much in the way of fish, Liza did catch a nice mackerel I caught a flounder.

About 3.30 we called it a day and went back to camp got cleaned up and went down to see what was being weighed in, there wasn't many people there most people had taken a lay day.

I took the flounder down and there was about 6 children there that had never seen one so the organisers were showing them the differences to other fish, the kids were fascinated.

Merv cooked flathead in batter and my flounder for dinner, the girls bought chips and salt and pepper said with some side salad. Liza bought some espresso martini for drinks and chocolate brownie for desert which she heated and put choc mousse on top, it was a yummy dinner
