John Deere Tractor towing an Air Seeder |
9/5/2012 - We woke up to a very foggy morning. We were hoping that was a good sign that it was going to be a beautiful day. We have decided to stay another night in Maitland at the Showgrounds. We want to go fishing today so we rigged our rods up, had breakfast and headed for Port Victoria on the West coast of the Yorke. When we got there the wind was really strong and the water was rough so we turned around and drove over to the East coast to Port Victor hoping to get out of the wind. On the way we had to get right off the road to make room for a tractor and air seeder. It took up most of the road. Port Victor was only about 35 klms but when we got there we found that they didn't have a jetty which is where we wanted to fish from today so we headed back north to Port Julia. Thankfully there was a jetty there so we went fishing even though it was quite windy there too. Pa caught a baby King George Whiting and I caught a slightly bigger fish that was quite dark and looked like a Whiting but we weren't sure what it was. We ended up catching 3 squid, 2 for Pa and 1 for me. As the grubs were gnawing at us we headed back to camp via Ardrosan. We got back and all the other vans had left so we were by ourselves tonight. We cleaned our gear up, had a bite to eat and went and stocked up at the supermarket. Salt and Pepper Squid and whole Mullet was on the menu for tea. Also another cold night tonight. Moving on tomorrow.
