Gone fishing!






Well Saturday was a crap day ( weather wise) so got up and decided to all go fishing. Went into town and the boys bought a rod/liscence/lures etc. Still absolutly tipping it down ( first time its rained in the day since we arrived!) so decided to get waterproofs on and head out. Drove up to Glenorchy and stopped at side of the lake near a little jetty. All had a go with several different coloured lures ( apparently they don't do float and bait fishing over here, its all hard work stuff!)
So all tried our own little methods for about 2 1/2hrs fortunatly the rain stopped and had a flask of tea to keep us warm, but in the end we gave up! Everyone at work and shops and friends etc said it was so easy to catch stuff and you don't really have to try,but we proved you did. We wanted to catch a salmon but failed misrably!
So what could we do for tea as we had planned on having grilled salmon fillets, well there was really only one option.......!
