Yep when it's time to go it's time to go, how quick did that sea come up hey. That's why when out the back of rotto it pays to keep one eye on the horizon at all times, it can be a long wet bumpy ride home if you get caught out wide.

Good to see the guy's wearing their PFD's.

I was sure I saw fisherman 1992 in the backgound at one point of the video in his tinny laughing as he pulled in snapper after 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.

Where did that come from

Sat, 2014-03-22 18:11

 

i think it was a tad wet out there and a confused sea didnt help them either one minute it is side on next it is head ahead, they are usually the worst sort of seas. they are truly very lucky men. "stay together and dont stress" is a key.

But that was one mean looking storm

You either have balls the size of tyres, or were watching the wrong movie.

When you cannot see a boat length behind you due to it raining so hard, there is something pretty nasty going on.
