One Swallow doesn't make a Summer..........

So what does one do when the fishing starts off badly? .....but take some nice shots of Swallow's on a yacht.
Headed out to Pt.Hacking this morning, early start 5.30am, put the boat in @ Gray's Point. The day started out well when we hooked a nice Jewfish on a 7" Gulp, got a look at him and he would have gone around 8kg's, however my mate Bill's line decided to part company at the leader knot!!
Then hooking and landing a nice Lizard (Flathead) @ around 65cm's only to have it shake the pliers and drop back in the drink(whilst trying to get a photo) as I pointed to Bill at the time we were about to drift onto a yacht!
Boat traffic on this lovely day was horrendous!
................that's fishing
C & C most welcome
Cheers
