Myself and Mrs Unicorn set out at 6:00 am Saturday morning for a bit of fishing in our saltwater bay. Got out there and faced the same situation as usual. 15 knot winds 22 deg C and 1 to 1.5 metre waves with no bites 
. All of a sudden.. wind slows to near zero. sun comes out.. fish start biting.. BIGGER fish start biting and to cap it all off Skandia, the Austraian yatcht that won the Sydney-Hobart race slowly sailed past and the crew asked us how the fishing was.. all 90 feet of her Followed by 80 more travelling across the bay for the Australia Day race..<br />Ended up only taking 4 of the biggest fish, and returning about 12 over legal size.. The sight of the yachts gave us some compassion for the fish and we only took what we needed.Live and let live And where was the camera ? At home of course.<br /> http://news.aunz.yimg.com/xp/afp/20031229/13/7981103.jpg
