Good work

 Good mixed bag there, what sort of depth patto? I went out Sunday wish I had stayed close in, started close in then went to NATO reef, then the wind came in early and I got smashed coming back!!,

Does any body know what the two big ships were towing in the bay? Big steel flat platforms, probably 100mx 40m approx, came down from bunbury way then They were both anchored up later on probably 15km+ apart.

Boarfish on a line

Tue, 2014-03-18 09:32

Here is a vid of a boarfish caught on a soft plastic in NZ. They clearly didn't know what it was. I find the vid quite funny, excuse the language.
