Back in the North for some fishing

A bit smoky on the water, but not Smokopoliptic like last year.

Scooted to the Mirage Islands to do some fishing - so far all we get is pike. But Pike is good fun to fish :) nothing beats a nice day out with fishing gear and friends. Well.... maybe a day out hunting deer in the bush comes pretty close. Hehe.
This is actually "Angry Birds Island" - so named because it has a huge colony of gulls who WILL dive bomb you
in your boat if you get too close! Real Angry Birds!


Smoky out here


Catch of the day. Maybe about 10kg of fresh pike! NOM!

Always a fun day out, when you hang out with people you like!


The water around the little islands was almost warm enough to warrant a swim! Should have brought my neoprene wetsuit with me. 17 deg C is about the threshold swim temperature I can handle for about 30 mins .....

Definitely going for more fishing this weekend, then!
