Fishing

Sam had been bugging and, I mean bugging, John to go fishing. They had to wait for our crate, which had the fishing poles in it. It arrived the week before Christmas--so we have been busy with holidays and traveling. John needed to get a fishing license and Sam reminded him daily. Well, Friday night John got his fishing license before we went out for dinner. Sam could not sleep and he was up at 6:00 am to check the weather. When John and I got up at 7:15 he was on the internet looking up Wollongong fishing. He knew the weather report, had snacks packed, was dressed and was ready to go. The place they had spotted for bait (shrimp and squid) did not open until 9:30!

They did not catch any fish, but they did get some great photos of big waves crashing by the lighthouse at Belmore Basin. Sam says he got bites from some fish but they all got away. Better luck next time. Sam is right now trying to talk John into going again tomorrow!
