Sharks...

On Saturday we all went over to Newell Beach to have lunch with Angie (Tish's boss) and her family. Before lunch we all went fishing, a very lazy version of fishing requiring nothing more than wandering across the rod and casting four lines off shore to see what we could catch.

The rods are just to the right of Hamish!
It started excellently with a catch almost before Adam had finished casting...our first Shark...



This is one of the Shovel-Nosed Shark complex - not sure which one. More of a Ray than a shark and as such has no real teeth.
That unfortunately was also the last shark we caught  - in fact we caught nothing else until this Catfish spp appeared just as we were going...


I suspect we shall do this again as everyone including Xanthe seemed to enjoy the experience
The clouds from the beach were spectacular .....the photographs less so....
