Hard coupla weeks!

So I've just come back from a two week trip up to Broome and The Dampier Peninsula for a bit of a random look around the place and to catch the Birds of Tokyo live at the Mangrove Resort. Had a couple of german girls tag along for the trip, not too many fishy pics as I was flying a little blind but managed a queenie to stick in the red curry and my first Barra from a land locked spot between the Willare Bridge Roadhouse and the Fitzroy river.  Struggled to find rock crabs to feed the local Tuskies with, so the local hermit crab population got a bit of a touch up with no joy there.

Bloody beautiful part of the country, checked out the Gas Hub location at James price Point and gave the hilux a good workout on the corrugations. Racked up about 3800 kms, too much fuel to count and spent far too much money but a good dose of R&R and plenty of vitamin D as the weather was a constant 30 with not a cloud in the sky.

Anyway heres a few of the pics that took my fancy.The german girl fishing in the pics initially came out with the statement/question "are you going to fish? Is that where you just stand there with a long pole in your hands? Looks boring!!" After my fourth barra then said "So how do you throw one of those things out??" Half an hour later having never held a fishing rod before was casting better then some fellas I know and working a barra lure all whilst this dirty perv took pics and vids!!

I highly recommend the Matso Brewery Ginger Beer however at 90+ dollars for a carton of midstrength 330ml stubs I can only put it down to an impulse buy whilst high on holiday joy!!

Anyway check some pics.  Very Jealous of Davos Kimberley pics
