Today was the last day for fishing in the competition so we were going by took or by crook, I  really wanted the others to catch a big fish I didn't care if it beat mine.

When we got to where we launch the wind was blowing straight in and things looked a b8t lumpy, we launched and it was decided not to sit in shore and wait till the wind dropped but head out to deeper waters.

Boy was it lumpy Merv said  he didn't think we had ever gone out in such conditions, we had been caught and had to get back in some unpleasant conditions but normally we would go no not yet, the best think was the wind was forecast to drop which it did.

We spent the day out there and the weather turned magical, heaps of black snapper caught,  Jackie caught one that may give her a 3rd prize, Liza and Merv caught  mackerel and I caught a shark.

We stayed out as long as we could not wanting to leave the beautiful water, then it was back for weigh in, clean the catch and cook dinner.

The meals at the tent tonight included spaghetti Bolognese so Liza bought a couple of servings, Merv cooked up some of the fish and it was turned into a marinara, with garlic bread and wine the best finish to an enjoyable day.
