queensland Hinze Western Arm 13/3/17

Not a bad day.

Only half a sunrise.

We are back to wearing the hard hats again as there are a lot of branches dropping again..

We had to relocateand repair some of our shrimp traps/( B Sharefarmers wish at least they could leave the bait containers in them and close them up again)

Soit was a bit late when we started fishing but we struck gold straight away. with a steady stream of fish coming on board.

The clouds started to movein and it was soon raining and blowing quite hard but it did not worry the fish .

 I did not use the counter to keep tally but I tagged 17 fish so we would have caught well over 50 fish between the 3 of us.

Only about 6 of the fish were under 30cm and most 35 to 40cm and a bonus was no tandans.

We could hear a drum beating and singing in the distance and next thing a dragon boat went past.

When we got back to the ramp there was 3 logan city coaches ,8 canoes and another dragon boat and lots of teenages there.

They were all well behaved,friendly and very polite

Probably camping at the environmental centre.

Cheers

Ray
