The morning after the night before

… coffee only helps … it doesn’t cure

Try again

Ross was covered up in his lycra running gear to cover his sunburn. Undeterred by the constant banter, he was single minded in his pursuit of his quarry and sunburn and abuse wasn’t going to stop him. He fished again without unfortunately success, risking a dangerous stint in the no boating channel of the fleet fishing co-op where he was almost run over by a trawler. He paddled all the way round to the foot bridge over the Cunningham Armand back, a round trip of about 10 km. Day 2 fishing track

A change of plan

GPS satellite track of kayaking around Lakes Entrance GPS Fishing Track Ross had grandiose plans to cross the Reeve Channel and fish up around Kalimna and around Rigby Island. He paddled upto the channel goynes and watched the water pumping through the channel towards the open sea and certain death.   That was the point of “plan abandonment”. The day ended with disappointment, no fish, bad sunburn and a broken heart.
