A small world made smaller by the internet and the fickled finger of fate.

We came home from GR early this year to go to a friend's wedding. A few days after the wedding I got an email from a guy (Auzie Mike) that I hadn't heard from since the early '70s. He was in Fiji and needed crew to help get his boat to Auz. The plan was to take a couple months crawling through the Fiji, Vanuatu, and New Calidonia island groups on our way. It took Lou about 10 minutes to convince me that it was a good idea and a couple days later I was on a plane with a few spare parts and a pair of shorts. We were headed for Bundagerg, Ql. and guess what, Fraiser Island was our landfall some 78 wonderfull days later.

Here are some pictures with of course a bit of coment.

Nik bought the MAGIC lure.

Now the fishing got really good.
Nik's first Mahi Mahi. Does he look stoked or what. Finally a big tuna on board.
Steve's Mahi made great eats.


Another big tuna for Steve.


A shark took the Magic lure too. He made great steaks.
