BAK 2 TOWNSVILLE !!!!


G'day World,
                       Many have noticed that there hasn't been an update for a few weex.
This doesn't mean nothing is happening, more over lotz is happening and the blog hasn't been the highest on my 2 do list.
For those outside the circle of knowledge:
The Yot is now bak in Townsville! and my life focus has turned towards Western Australia again.
However upon arrival in the yard last week the sun moon and stars aligned to send me straight bak 2 C.
Kenny, Dale and Myself set off "after a slight delay" towards Salamander Reef just outside Cape Clevland.
To describe the evening as perfect wood B an understate "mint".
Reddie after reddie came aboard followed by more squid than I care to count and Kenny  could possibly clean.
All that was missing by 2am was a trophy phish,
A  huge grunter made that a forgone thort, this waz then followed by the biggest reds of the nite, then a massive cobia to top off a superb evening.
We returned to Townsville around 10 am the following morn for sum much needed shut eye.
Sunday morning was all about filleting the huge haul. And the week was all about eating the freshest of fish and distributing the catch to those most needy.
The Yot has proved itz worth during my trip to The Whitsundays and the return to Townsville. Now itz thyme to head back to WA for another shot at tiling Mum and Dad's new house.
There are of course a few details that still need to be addressed before another major trip, but if I take my world at face value the build is now complete.
Now just an improved dinghy loading system and a paint job are all thatz stopping a final test.
My demons have once again  reared their ugly head and this is the main reason for the delay in updates.
This is something only I can address. And I'm working on it!
Brother Andrew and Christopher have both taken out major prizes in the Pirtek Fishing challenge with huge queenies caught between the piles of the town jetty.
The last entry was a radical change for me with no fishing or cooking involved, but I feel the pictures spoke 4 themselves.(I dare anyone to argue!)
Whitehaven beach and The Whitsundays is such a special place that even I find myself admiring scenery which is totally foreign for me.
I must now shut down my operation in Townsville and head West for a "holiday" much fishing and tiling is on my horizon.
Demons be damned I'm going to enjoy it!
