The girls weren't that keen so Richie and I did the walk to Coral Beach and the lookout. The beach was made completely of dead coral pieces just piled up high over many years.
The rains swept in from the ocean however and drowned us, but who cares when it's 32 degrees.
Later on that evening we went fishing off the wharf and hooked onto a Giant Trevally. I thought we may have lost Bridgey over the side when the reel screamed and she was the closest and tried to grab the rod, but it was jammed into the wharf hard enough that she couldn't get it out. Unfortunately though it threw the hook when it ran back towards us. Oh well - it was fun for a little while.

just catching up with this last blog. shame about losing the fish, at least you got to keep Brigie, & you knew what you lost, so it must have been in close. I remember losing a very nice trout when a new reel jammed, straight back to the shop for that one. Nice you got to buy some fish of the boats, beats eating the bait. XX Nan
