Day 27 - Wednesday 18/7/01

Honeymoon BayLes’s fishing tour for 5 adults was an absolute nightmare! 7 people turned up at
the beach ready to get on board and all hell broke loose when it was realised that there’d been a double booking! In the end, both Colin and Sandy ended up going with David and another couple from
Geraldton, while I stayed behind with Leah and got bitten by sandflies!
The fishing trip was apparently quite an event! After the debacle on
the beach with the double-booking (and 3 people who didn’t get to go) their fishing day was full of action but very little catch at the end. All I’ve heard about is Tiger
Sharks lunging after their bait and spinning through the air like a corkscrew about 4 foot off the water. They spent hours fishing for “something big” but lost all their rigs and David even broke his rod trying to get one shark to the surface. They came back with a cod, a GT, and a trevally between the 3 of them but full of stories.
