Old Wilbinga fishing trip

Was flicking through some old pics and came across a couple from a trip up to Wilbinga in the early nineties.

The Landy is my then neighbour Mark's and my HJ55 next to it.

Got a heap of herring, pike, tailor and a couple of small bronzies  between the 4 of us in our group.
