Not really... only put the boat in at 11am and was out an hour before sunset so the light wasn't really all thats good for landscapes (being that is was a bright sunny day with lots reflection). Wish I took my 70-300 or 80-200 as there were quite a few sea hawks flying around and would have had a good chance at a keeper... ah well next time.

*hangs head in shame*

Sadly no fish big enough to keep found themselves on the other end of my line... heaps of small bream and jacks but they all went back in.

hey mike,
i can't understand why you have fishing rods on the back of your boat.

There's no fish in them there water :shock:

Look forward to sharing the broadwater with you this summer.

Jacque, sounds good to me... yeah I've just spent a lot of $$$ fixing her up from a moulding, backyard sitting, hull to a nice crusier.. it's a 19" Deep V Cuddy cab with a 130Hp Evinrude on it... could have bought a D2X and a 200-400vr but hey I've got too many hobbies!

I trust this shot was not taken during working hours

Um... yeap it was.. finished up all my projects for the day and my brother had the day off so why not... I like being my own boss!
