We had a very quiet winter but its all happening this summer, despite our first fish-less day last Sunday, we had a double hook up on Marlin the week before and with only two on board, 5 lines and two teasers to clear, it was mayhem for a few moments. I also took a Gopro out for the first time, just to get a feel for the best place to mount it when filming. Initial footage is on the Gopro, the rest was taken on a smartphone -video edited in Gopro studio, click link below;
Testing out the GoPro
I have also made some minor changes to the boat, small stuff but makes a big difference, photos at the bottom of the page. Other than that, the boat is trucking along nicely, I still get comments from crew on the boat regarding how great the ride is, the hull continually impresses.

| A perfect morning |
 |
| Beautiful golden sunrise contrasts against the dirty green water caused by recent heavy rains |
 |
| Out go the lures, home-made aluminium outriggers are working well so far. |
 |
| Much better, blue water. |
 |
| Rob at the helm, GoPro wide angles are great fun. |
 |
Lots of trolling and thinking to do at the bow.

 |
| A couple of 32mm pole holders and the annoying poles are no longer on the floor. |
 |
| A tether to the turnbuckle, occasionally they undo them selves whilst towing and get lost on the floor. |
