The Fishing Trip ...That Wasn't

This morning, I got up early (2.00am) to go fishing, and everything went as usual, met the other fishermen and off we went to Wollongong, when we got there, some of the others were already there, and we put our gear on to the boat (by this time it had already started to rain) but it was not too bad but as the time went on the weather kept on deteriorating and the wind also started to increase, and it was from the South. When the skipper arrived, he said that it was better to wait for awhile before leaving port, as he did not think that it was a good idea to go out, as the wind was blowing at 25 knots and was increasing, after waiting for another 30 minutes, and no sign of improvement, he decided to cancel the trip, so we put all our gear back in the trailer, including our wet weather gear, and made our way back home. And as was to be expected the rain stopped falling as we got further away from Wollongong and closer to Sydney, but it did arrive eventually. We needed the rain and the fish will a chance to get bigger and wait for us next month!

Have a nice week
