With a few new lures in his tackle box Lyndon was itching to get out on the water. Friday arvo rocked around and the seas had calmed so Lyndon packed up BLAH BLAH and went to grab his fishing buddy but to his surprise Dyl pulled the pin. Not today Dad! Never faced with this problem before Lyndon headed out. Let it be said that trying to clear three lines, drive the boat and set a hook by yourself isn't for the faint hearted. After the first Wahoo was inboard the next tricky part is using the timer setting on your camera in a rocking boat. With smiles all round and no one to share it with it was out all lines and try again. As an after thought I'm sooooo glad I didn't get any double hook ups.
My first decent Wahoo in BLAH BLAH.
Welcome aboard number two.
As I looked back on Tonga somewhere inside these black clouds I decided to start the trip home early. A smart idea as the swell also picked up, from behind and then I drove into buckets of rain and ended turning what is a normal 30 min run into just over an hour and ended in the pitch dark too. Lots of fun.
Final haul two wahoo and a couple of Skippie's. SAL turned up just in time to help weigh and clean up. 10.6 and 12.4kg Wahoo. Very yummy.
