http://kirkmanslongwayround.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 21, 2011. Tinaroo Dam, Atherton Tablelands. Tinaroo Dam, Atherton Tablelands. We measured her and she was 116cm, and would have weighed about 28kg. An absolute stud fish! Each night we built a fire and cooked damper and roasted marshmallows, Lee taught the kids to whittle, and they sat around the fire at night trying to whittle snakes out of branches. Our last day we took the drive around the top of the dam to the dam wall, we did not. Room to turn around, and it was not. We had a great t...

http://kirkmanslongwayround.blogspot.com/2012/06/lee-in-perth.html
Saturday, June 9, 2012. A few weeks ago Lee headed over to Perth to visit a few mates. While he was there they travelled up the coast to Shark Bay, visiting and fishing in places such as Monkey Mia, Kalbarrie, Denham and Camarvon. He had good weather for the trip, covering alot of kms and seeing lots of the coastline. Kids and I didnt go on this trip, it was definately one for the boys, sleeping a few nights in the car and eating sandwiches for breaky! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Kirkmans Long Way Round: Cairns Milkfish
http://kirkmanslongwayround.blogspot.com/2011/09/cairns-milkfish.html
Thursday, September 8, 2011. The first day we went to attempt catching one we could see them tailing in various spots around the swamp, this means they are either swimming or feeding and their large and powerful forked tail breaks the surface, looking a lot like a shark cruising in the shallows. Armed with new hooks, heavier leader and drag adjusted we returned to try and conquer the milk fish again.Game on, 3 nil there way. I couldn't believe it, i wanted to spit the dummy and throw the rod in the drink!

It got within about 3 metres of us then disappeared, a few minutes later it popped its head back up then ...
