Monkey Mia
Francois Peron National Park
Wednesday 31st, we went out to Francois Peron National Park where we did a bit of serious 4WDing in the deep, deep, red, red sand! We ended up at the Big Lagoon for a bite of lunch and a bit of fishing-lunch was more successful than the fishing, but it was a beautiful spot with no one else out there.
This morning (June 1st and the first day of winter) we got up bright and early (for us at least) and went to see the dolphins fed on the beach at Monkey Mia. It was an expensive early start to see 4 females and 2 calves come in, get their 3 or 4 fish then leave. The National Geographic film on dolphins was the most interesting thing about the whole experience! Even my hot chocolate was expensive, mostly froth and lukewarm at best!
The weather has improved slightly with a drop in the wind so we’ll finally put the boat in the water after an early lunch and see if there are any whiting to be had. It seems the inshore area is pretty fished out, but it’ll be still good to go and try.
Our neighbour Bryce (with the VERY big shark cat) just dropped over and has asked if we would like to go out fishing with him sometime soon when the day is right. Hmmmmm let’s think about that for a milli-second. Of Course we would like to go out fishing with him!!!!
