Gday from Christmas Island

Hey guys

Me and TimVB are both currently sitting in Flying Fish Cove on Chrisrtmas Island, sucking back a beer and analyising the days fishing.....

We have had a top trip, lost a lot more fish than landed, and definately lost the best 5 or so fish to a combo of angler error, tackle fault (partly angler error), sheer bad luck and a shark or three, but still got some really nice fish and are now completly knackered from popping, stickbaiting and jigging for the past 5 days. Apparently 5 weeks in the gym was not enough!!! A few short fishing days to go as the weather has turned a bit pear shaped.

 Mark from Shorefire has been a champion and a great host, well worth the effort to get here.

Will put up a post on the weekend. Wheres that beer.........

They really should ban internet connections from 'exotic' fishing locations!
