Quite a day today. Slept in and took the boats down to the Lagoon about 10:30am. The preferred launching area was dry so the Hannans dry launched and left there tinny on the sand and we reversed down to the same area and set about filling in time while the tide brought enough water in for us to go fishing. Whilst high and dry a few bait fish were spotted in the shallow channel near by so Hanno returned to camp and picked up the throw net. After a couple of warm u...

Interesting day today. Started early to catch the low tide for a little mudcrabbing. Hanno had "hired" some metal hooks that are used to poke into likely looking holes and when you here the clicking of a crab defending itself, you manoeuvre the metre or so long hook to pull the crab out of its hole. We walked for 2 hours through soft boggy sand, through rushing water and over sharp oyster covered rocks and didn't see a single solitary mud crab. It was an interest...

After setting up camp in a nice shady site and checking out the ensuite style amenities we went down to the lagoon for a swim. Crystal clear water surrounded by mangroves and the swim was great. While in the water our discussions re...

Had a swim, saw a shark hooked by a beach fisho and washed the car and boat trailer at the "Wash Down Area" Continued north to Stanley Rest Area where Eleni and Pete treated us to a Pork Roast on the weberq.

17/05/14 Last day fishing at Cape Keraudren and we all headed out in Pete's boat. Trolling around the Cape we landed a couple of Queenies and a big Barracuda. Eleni caught the Cuda but if you see the photo you'll notice I'm holding the fish. This was because Eleni wouldn't hold it to pose for a photo. I think the teeth on the Cuda might have put her off a little. No luck bottom bashing at the entrance where we had some luck yesterday so we went back trolling an...
