The Wifey is back

 After a couple of frothies friday night with the wife, bro inlaw and  his girl, we were feeling sat morn wasnt going to suit for a run out at early hrs and a sleep in was in order.

Well when i awoke at 6:30 I was up and dragging them down the driveway promising the goods. Even my wife who hasnt been out for a loooong time (1.5 yr) due to recovery from lifes challenges and that she swims every sat morn said , Screw it, I'm coming. Well just as well she did!

On the water by 7:30 for a big steam to a 16mt mark i found during the cray run of 2017. We were anchored and throwing out the berley in no time and Caz was quick to bait up and send it down so she could out do the rest of us while i sorted gear and bait for the guest. It must have been the second drop when Caz loaded up with the first keeper of the morning at around the 670 mark. She was happier than a little pig in shit with herself, though no time to gloat as a line out was a line not catching!

Ten minutes of silence past with not much activity until I heard expletives flow from her mouth again and the new rod I grabbed for her a year ago was buckling over again with alolt more go in it this time. To our surprise a smaller 580 model appeared on the surface and her smile kept grew and the banter started as we were not even getting a touch on ours. 

We sat out for another hr or so and picked up some skippy for the bro inlaw before calling it a day and heading in (not to mention some muppet forgot the esky) to avoid the heat of the day and clean the catch.

I would give up every catch from a fishing trip to see that chuffed look of happiness on her face! Not the look in the Pic as that was pain from teeth in fingers, well composed though!

Enjoy Peeps!
