SALTWATER GETS IN YOUR EYES

Some time ago we played host to a few visiting anglers who were keen to sample a little of what the local waters could offer. We wasted little time in getting to where the action was and were glad the fish were cooperative. So here are some pics of 3 Frenchmen and an Aussie braving the salt spray and getting their hands dirty!

Three casts were all it took to get connected!

Macks were in the house, and we were glad!
