One last crack at the 20 pounder!

Having sen the results of one gentleman's early fishing expedition in the form of a 20 pound salmon yesterday, we got up early and had one last go at catching a big one and, along with about 50 other people, lined up along the beach. We caught a few small ones and a few very small skippy type fish but at least we had a go and it was at least interesting feeling something other than waves banging on the end of the line.

We had already prepacked a lot of the van up the night before so we were on the road by 9:30am heading towards Karratha. A bit of a nothing travelling day as the scenery is quite mundane. We have a Ben Elton talking book going on in the car which passes the time.

After arriving in Karratha we set up and headed to the shops as the grocery supplies were depleted from our four nights at 80 mile beach. Once that was achieved we headed off to the Tambrey Tavern for dinner (as recommended by Steve and Emily - our Karratha locals until recently) and back to the van for an early night as we are feeling the pinch from the early start this morning.
