When a bad fishing trip is better than a good days housework
Well we finally got the boat out of the garage, made it legal equipmentwise, and headed for Port Albert. Pulling the boat and trailer over those Gippsland hills called for second gear and a lot of groaning from the diff. But we got there ok anyway. Got the boat in the water, and then tried to nut out the boyuage system, since some of them were missing. Also nearly got stuck on a sandbar. After freeing the boat off that, I noticed a storm coming with quite a few lightning ground strikes in it. So since it seemed to be coming our way we decided to head for shore. Well by the time we got half way in the storm was upon us and pouring rain. Anyways, we got into shore and headed for the car. After the storm passed an inspection of the boat turned out to be more water in the boat than out , and also while we were sitting out the storm the tide also went out and the boat is aground. So after about another 20minutes we had freed it only to be presented with storm no.2. So we decided to call it a day and go home. All this time everywhere else in Victoria was steeming hot. So like I said , a bad days fishing is always better than a good days housework. He he.
