Snapper at Point Culver

Departed 03:30 Saturday morning from Kalgoorlie to Point Culver for a quick fishing trip.  Total distance 1050km, total travelling time 16hrs, total angling time 12 hours, last 79km from main road to Point Culver - 3.5hrs.  Only true anglers and crazy people would do this!

Nice one - the trip paid off by the look of it. Love the LB snapper

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
