Wood . Oh Ja .
K
so That afternoon the Fishing was Morsdood .
i Even went to the Trouble of rigging up a Rod for Bevid , just to keep him on the bricks , as i fished Mostly alone for the first 6 hours .
So Bevid , the cob man , Was having a go himself , for an In-ed .
Frik And boeps rock up Well After Dusk .
Boeps is like , Gay friendly , and i assume it to be From the fact that he Tripped and facepalmed in the bungalow.
onto a bottle of Brannas , or OLd brown .
Full speed .
::craz
We hook up and they are planning to gooi . I'm planning to duck - It's been a long Day and nothings happening .
The Temperature Dropped , not As Low As Last Time , but Not a joke .
i head Back through the bush in the Dark , and Unpack at 11 .
The spot don't have decent Freezers . Bummer . I rock up wanting to uleash hell , with enough fomo's Full of bait .
Problem .
remove shelf in freezer (tiny) , and rotate baits every 6 hours .
problem solved .
The chalet is Starting to develop It's own unique "fragrance " when i awake saturday morning , and i hastily Make toast , smoke , coffee , smoke , and then i wake up properly . i Can barely walk , as landing the bag took it's toll on me on the bricks .I'm getting old , and i Can feel it .
I pack at a liesurely pace and it's back down for round 2 .
the groundswell here is still very strong , although Captain Facepalm had assured Me it would be right as rain for a foosh .
I Arrive to find one of my rods Missing . Tha'ts Because Bevid had suddenly developed a passion for sliding , and Wanted to hook into something Nice .
so i was , unusually , down from 3 rods , to simply 1 .
Groan .
now we're 5 rods In , and All the Secret Baits Are starting to surface ..
Wind is Not too Bad though .
at around 11 , i am busy scratching for eds ( that's what they call it , right ? ) , and i Get a pull on the Short stok . Kollie !! yayyy .
Bevid is Klapping the green bottles , after Klapping the bronw bottle the night before with me , and Klapping the smaller fish off the point .lekkke .
Suddenly behind me the rod goes off and i don't hear it .
Thought we Were in Busnizzz , when i finally Get to the Rod the Secondary Rockets have been fired and she's heading off to kidds Again , Away from the Stomping surf to the right .One good Thing about Hectic swell- even de sharks head Away from it .And that's a good Thing .
Unfortunately he doesn't like the hook size , and spits It out . Damn .
Everyone's pulse is a little Faster , and We're awake .
Facepalm goes To his tackle box and rigs up another seeeekritt bait .
With the water doing it's own thing , ryan , one of The other Kwaggas , is now black Bag Kiting his bait out .Anything for a Nibble .
Nothing Works , and he's very charming vroutjie Rocks up to wake bevid up even More , and to fetch him (Ryan)and Take him home .
The time is now 4 pm , and fiengs is not looking good .
Byron vermaak and the 1 Man band totterkop arrive .
Lemme tell you - i Can talk .right ?
This oke takes kuierpraaitjies to New heights . He Should write a Novel .
i even Thought that him having a glass in his Hand would keep him quiet or Calm him down a little .
No such luck - it Was like pouring fuel onto a fire ......
at 5 , the girls leave , and Bevid Reckons he's going with , but promises to be back , with Other Byron , A.k.a shamus , at around 9 .
My Moer is Already sour - been at it since 9pm , and With only a single pull - On my rod - i'm getting a little vlou now to say the least .
Love The Fact that i got all the pulls again ............lolol!
i Put in the hours , so i Reckon - Only Fair .
By 9.40 Pm , Byron is keeping me busy , while tottie is impressing the Visitors from EL with his mouth . it doesn't stop .
Amazing . He has a hidden Talent .
The Brandy is flowing by Now , even to My side , but there is simply Nothing Happening .
It's as if someone just unplugged the Aquarium .
by 10.30 Pm I am beginning to Feel like an eveready battery after someone Leaves their headlamp On for 5 hours straight in their Backpacks. I hunker down onto the ground , find a Semi Dry spot and crawl into a broken stick figure position , and Try get some sleep .
i Nod Off easily . This Has been a long day , and Nothings happening .
what the ..... ??
Even Boeps was not impressed with his own back yard .
By Midnight , i simply can't take it , and Decide that Enough's enough .
Bevid , having left with Byron AND willie's Meat , to go and braai it for them , promised he'd Be back by 9 .
By 11 pm , tottie is talking about making a fire , catching a Kolstert , and braaiing it . * Chuckle *.
Bevid Stagggers back to the Tent , somehow Managing Not to drop The Wors - Which Miraculously was Braaied (!) , and We have cold Boerie rolls on the bricks .
I'm done . Kla . No More .
i Reel In after having left the Biggest Skipjack Head I've ever slid , for 5 hours .
Not even a nibble .
the Main problem with fleshy Baits , is sea lice .
They're a flippin Pest , and proceed to decimate any fleshy bait you put out .
Their speed is remarkable , and Costly .
I grit My teeth , and head home , Leaving Byron and the Story teller to finish themselves on the bricks .
This time though , I'd parked the Car in the Resort , and Walked round the Ompad . The Rash between my legs , Arising from wearing a tight fitting Reef Garment all day Long , had Me Waltzing like John Wayne back to the chalet . The pain is pretty hectic .Feels like someone is taking a blow torch to the family Jewels .
Fun .Booyah .
I figure I'll put My head down for a Sec , just a Sec , and then I'd get started with supper .
7 Am . Sunday Morning .
I am Now a shadow of My former self that once entered the bungalow 2 Days prior . No bites is as draining as big bites , Trust Me .The amount of Effort remains the Same .
I head off to EL on some business , and Return at 9.45 .
The Water is looking better , but with a history over the last 2 days , with More Than 5 rods Stationed Permanently out Off the point for In-eds , and only 3 pulls total for the entire weekend ( did i Mention i got all the pulls ? No? just in Case someone Asks boeps and he doesnt Answer Lolol!! ) , I'm Beginning to Think that the sharks simply didn't get the Memo Frik sent out for them to pitch .
Obviously .
Boeps And Frik and co are all firing it off the point .
i decide to Cut My trip short , and Check out .
I've been Wanting to check out some other spots in the area , and i Reckoned I'll pick a spot somme on the fly while I'm driving . I nearly turn off to christmas rock , but figure it's too close to lennies , water's gonna Be No different .
i Make a call there and then , to head off to fish river point .
And here's where it gets lekka .
