Kevin came down from Fairlie for the weekend and we fished on Saturday. The same tactics as last week nailed 7 really good rainbows for us.<\/p>\n<p>Today Paul Macandrew and I fished together. The plan was to put the boat in but it was too wild. I\u2019ve had a few close calls on small boats and yachts and I don\u2019t want to push my luck any more. Aside from the danger side of the coin, there\u2019s no comfort fishing from a small boat in a big wave. We fished a few river and stream mouths from the bank instead. We didn\u2019t catch any but it was good to fish with and meet Paul. I expect we\u2019ll have a few more missions on the water in the not so distant future.<\/p>\n<p>5 days work and I\u2019ll be back on the water.
