Time to catch a fish!

This day is the day to catch a fish with my girls. Just across from us we chat to Charlie the hire boat owner. this man works in Mallacoota for 6 months and then goes to live in thailand for the other 6 months. 'what a life'
The rates are cheap and so for $60 we have a 2 hour run in a little motor boat. The distance we need to cover to catch our fish is too far for our little inflatable to handle so its just better off to hire the boat here.

  Charlie tells us where to go for some taylor and thats just what we go for. In the first 10 minutes we hook up a couple of littlies and one good size form My Rod. Then we let the girls real in their forst ever fish on their own fishing rods that poppy bought fort them at Christmas. The video camera was running out of battery but we managed to capture it all.. See the video...

We head back in with our little catch and intend to go for a drive to the Double Creek rainforest boardwalk just up the road. However the rain sets in and a quick storm puts and end to those plans. This day sees our first rain since we started our trip and i guess 1 storm out of 17 days travel is pretty good.
