Monday Cygnet to Quarantine .

A bit late rising this morning,no crew to stir me.
Did get up early for the compulsory just before dawn,I could see the outline of the surrounding hills but the thing which took my eye was all the riding lights.As they are nearly all white LEDs now, the whole bay looked like fairy land quite amazing.
Had breakfast and heard Nigel on the morning sched, he said Quarantine Bay for the final get together,we will have a cooker and a fire at the landing for the station.
Start early and finish early.

Most boats had a very enjoyable day fishing or just pottering along,some up to Shipwrights Point for a look.The weather had come right at last,a little cold in the breeze but pleasant in the sun.
Les and I thought we had done well by catching over a dozen flats until we went ashore and saw Molly's haul,all cleaned an battered ready to cook.Plenty for everyone to have a taste.

Quite a few elected to travel home but a good mob turned up at the final night get together for the Hobart people,The Geelong boats have almost half to go yet.
Met more crews ashore,left my run a bit late !
Returned to the boat at dusk for a cuppa after a pleasant evening.


Caught the most Flathead in the Channel after travelling right around Tassie,maybe it was the fisher people !

If anyone wishes to send me photos my address is alanp592@gmail.com
Mob is 0419374494
Home tomorrow.
