The best and worst of perth fishermen!
Had a great weekend with my daughter (13) before they go back to school.
We started off by going north of two rocks yesterday afternoon in that glorious Perth winter weather, for a tailor sess, and picked a couple of nice eating size fish (around 50 cm).
A nice family were near us on the beach and to see there young kids wooping and playing on the beach whilst mum and dad wet a line was good to see. I picked up a slightly bigger tailor one on dusk so I offered it to them, which him and his lovely wife accepted with much thanks. All in all a great day.
But... tonight same daughter and me went to the ammo jetty to replace the scalies we used yesterday only to be greeted by a charming family allowing there young kids to stomp and squash blowie after blowie, it was sickening, and my sensitive animal loving daughter looked pale and shocked. wtf is wrong with some people, we left, shaking my head at the dad whom just glared at me.
I love going to get some scalies at that jetty, but have seen the worst behaviours that reflect on the whole fishing community.

yep blow fish might be annoying but no need to do that and each thing has its place in the cycle

Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for the night. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

what is wrong
it is really simple the parents are the problem your daughter will turn out a lovely woman that guys kids will be shit heads , I have never smacked my young feller although I have been tempted at times but I can say this he knows when I am not happy with him , he will grow up knowing respect for elders and being a diver and fisherman because I put time into him if that's the only thing I can teach him I will die a happy man

At least you didnt get your car windows smashed while you were witnessing the fate of the poor blowies...
