barrow island madness


Recommended Posts

Going crazy at the moment working on barrow island on a accomadation barge and its like looking into one of the aquriums at sea world every day there huge schools of big trevally,queenfish long tom, and all sorts of big bottom dwelling fish cant quite make out the species but they are huge and cant put a line in the water due to it being a marine sancturary its driving me crazy seeing so many big fish in front of me and not being able to have a crack at them.

Doesn't that drive you nuts. Being offshore, fish everywhere and you can't fish. I've experienced that in so many places. In the North Sea the Norwegians used to fish off the dive boats and then hang the fish up outside to dry, they're very into dried fish. I have heard of divers on the North West Shelf catching fish on handlines smuggled into the dive bell!! That was back in the mid 90s & in the words of Sgt Schultz "I Know Nutting"Wahoo
