Did the beacon at Salamoa on the weekend, it was the worst I have seen here
due to the tideline being blown into the harbour. Vis was down to 15' water
was cooler than normal at 25C. The boat was chartered by the Oz army for
recreation of it's engineers that are doing some maintaince on the Lae water
supply. 20 soldiers on board. No sizeable fish to be seen only normal small
reef dwellers and tiny coral trout. The only fish caught on the trip was a
barracuda and they lost that on the gaff. Lure was nicely scarred, Rapala, I
think it was a 26, the size up from a Magnum 22.
Food was as usual brilliant with my steak left on the barby for an extra 20
min or so till all the moo was gone. The group did the climb up the mountain
to see the anti air emplacements left by the Japs in WW2. Slight rain while
going up led to an interesting descent on the red clay. Lots of stained
clothing.
Is it just me or is it that soldiers can injure themselves with a
toothbrush. There were several abrasions attended to from coral cuts then
the bush walk left more wounded.
The tattoo parlour must make a fortune when these guys hit town, what's with
the Japanese writing crap.
Anyway rerun this weekend and as the owner is away I'm skip, lots of fun.

Looking at Steven Hawkings' "String Theory"
All matter in the universe is composed of tiny vibrating strings
So all things are made from music.
Music to my ears is my Tiagra 50W screaming when towing a Wombat from
Pakula.
That must be why nothing else in the universe matters except fishing.
