Teenager Patrick James has been nagging his father Stan for the last year to take him to Exmouth to get amongst the Billfish action.  He's a fishing addict it seems, but the attraction of something a bit bigger than tailor, herring and snapper was gnawing at him... Dad eventually succumbed to the intense pressure and the two headed north recently to fish with us at Exmouth Billfish Charters.

Day 1: after landing with Skywest early morning, the lads wanted to ease into things by chasing GTs and Mackies.  I'm not sure about easing in, as Stan's back won't ever be the same once the GTs were finished with him!  Great day by all with action aplenty on GTs, Spaniards, juicy bottom fish and a range of other fun pelagics.

Day 2: the boys headed into blue water.  Fishing bait and switch with 15kg spin sticks was a technique they were quickly trained in, with immediate success.  2 excellent Sailfish for Patrick!  4 Dolphinfish added to the day, and the Father/Son combo have been reliving the action to anyone within earshot ever since we're told! 

A tentative booking has been made to return in July to get a few Marlin notches on their belts.  See you guys then!
