Channel Is mish with a rugby mate - one of his first serious fishing trips which turned up some great fish. Such a beautiful place up around that part of the world.

Yeah, when I got my first little 10ft Parkercraft I camped at Port Jackson and fished out of the bay. Didn't have to go far, got some great fish close in...I have some fond memories from up there.

Took a bit over an hour, picked the right day as both ways was flat enough to have it at full throttle or thereabouts, way home was a bit slower. Was waiting for the right day to head up there and then everything came together....

Awesome. You must have taken a ****load of fuel to get that far and back, including safety margin. Well done.
