interesting stories

After seeing the name just1morecast it got me thinking what are some memoriable moments from fishing trips and saying the fateful words just one more cast that comes to your mind weather it be good or bad. Mine would be fishing at Port Smith in a cove and I just kept saying one more cast, after awhile I thought nope getting late gotta go so packed up my stuff headed back threw the mangroves only to find the tide had come in around the island well it was just on sunset and i had to wade threw roughly 50 meters of water in the deepest part it got up to my armpits, I learnt a valuable lesson that day about how quick the tide comes in when your fishing northern waters lol didn't catch any fish either.

Mine would be the deckie asking for one more drop when we knew we were going to be late back to the beach on a strong seabreeze (not good) it resulted in a 600mm long King George Whiting the biggest we'd both ever seen. Good desiscion.
