Fishing V day ;)

Did something very very different for valentines day last night :wink:

A girl i know (Sarah) accually begged me to take her fishing because she has never been in her life or even seen a fish been caught.

So the weeks before i arranged a custom made ugly stick off the one and only "Jim Head" to be built in black with pink binding around the eyes.

I then wanted a little message written on the rod for her to finish it off.

Her name is Sarah but people call her " Bear" for short so i had
"miss Bear happy V day 08" put on it and Jim did me a good deal with reel $80! What a legend!

I also got her a bottle of her favouite champaine , red rose and a card and i was set now to be a smooth operator :lol:

Picked her up at 8pm and headed to palm beach jetty because i knew there that she would be able to land her fish fish even though it may not be anything great.

First cast she got a trumpeter, second cast some milk fish thing , then gobble guts etc rest of the night.

All in all she was having a absolute blast and even by 12am she wanted to stay and keep fishing.

All in all she said that my gifts to her and doing something totally different and stress free was really great but she is spewn im headin off for 8 days now haha.

Oh yeah and i nearly betterd my PB starfish :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
What is it with me and these stupid starfish :lol:

I also had out some whole scailies . Got 1 wicked run! Got talkin to a local who told me that there were snapper caught recently!

Here are some pics...

Great style there mate. Nice looking work on the rod mate. Too bad my missus would hit me over the head with it if I gave her a fishing rod.

Get them into your chosen sport and then you can go fishing any time you want. Just have to bring the missus along..... Hmmmm is that a good thing or a bad thing? Wink
Very romantic gesture in any case.Cool

Question is why were you still fishing at 12am after the gobble guts picture i'm sure that would have been enough of a sign that is was time to give the fishing away
