The day of "Lates Calcarifer"

Patrick and I went fishing as we do and much to our delight on a farty little hook and an even smaller piece of worm I caught my first ever barramundi, yahoo. As it was only 52 cm and out of season it was released. However Patrick came to the rescue and supplied us with a haul of whiting, yummy. If your wondering about the title, thats is the barra's Latin name.As per usual i am having trouble finding photos so keep watching.

The very sad day we left old emerald town

Yippee!! we made it to the ashphalt.
4 hours and we landed at Armstrong beach.
 Greeted by our lovely friends Jacque And Al.
Dodgy has a new boyfriend, Hammer they are inseparable.
Have already caught some local whiting, and  a local crab catcher has supplied us with feed of delicious mud crabs.
I now have a devine recipe for chillie mudcrab(thanks Al) which I will kindly prepare for any guests who wish to join us??!
I've been on a small side trip up to Eungella & FinchHatton Gorge.
Simon & Jacque the exercise freaks had me walking 5.6km to a beautiful gorge.
We did get to have a nice cool off before we had to walk back to the car.

Until next time, ciao baby!!

Why the wedgie?

We really had no say in it,Pat and  i really giggled when we first saw it so thought we would keep this rather funny name.
