Booked the crew in at Palate2 a Palette restaurant for dinner Saturaday night to celebrate our 35 th Wedding anniversary ,falls on Monday 24th and Jenny and John Black celebrate their 40 th on 7 th April !
Great night out !
SUNDAY23 RD MARCH,MONDAY24TH MARCH....
Another rest day ,a bit windy..
On Monday off in the boat,so peaceful approximately 10 kms out,very calm!
That's our mates in the distance!
CRAB CATCHING... The nets get thrown off overboard with a few fish heads in the bait basket,the water is clear and you can watch the crabs crawl into the nets,as soon as they make their way towards the bait in the middle ,they are pulled up and into the boat,measured and killed and popped into the esky box on the boat ,meanwhile I'm fishing with a squid jig for squid but no luck today ,just a couple of dozen crabs,no complaints off course!!
Measuring tool comes out,you have to be spot on otherwise the fisheries are not happy campers!
Crab net to esky!!
Knife through their brain and they are dead!!
That's Bucks job,I'll she'll them and clean them back at cleaning station then we steam them in a basket to cook them,unless we are saving some for another recipe that I google,the boys enjoy a cold beer and eating them around a table at the camp for lunch,a couple of dipping sauces and a lot of mess with shells!!
Buck wasn't so lucky today,a big fella got hold off his finger and took a hunk out of it,he'll survive,the crab wasn't so lucky !!!
