Not actually Fishing

A FEW YEARS ago I wrote a story that began by stating that to capture the fish was not all of the fishing. It was a quote from Zane Grey, who knew a thing or two about fishing, but was quite clearly deluded.

MOTHER Nature, in the form of a 25knot south-easterly, had forced organisers to cancel the fishing competition. It was a sensible decision.

Quollotay control problems

"Don't mess with Mother Nature" sums up Jeevan William's and my 2001 experiences at One Tree Beach (OTB). Robert "Bluey" Vaughan's cave mouth in the Admiralty Gulf of Western Australia's Kimberley region had more bad karma than George Bush in a Kabul jail.

Not Driving, Waving

Somewhere on the outskirts of every major city in Australia is an invisible line, and I'm determined to find it. I went looking for it on a recent trip to Shark Bay, and while I got close, I was never able to quite pin down the exact location where it crossed the Brand Highway. Come to think of it, I may not have been paying close enough attention, it could have shifted out as far as North West Coastal Highway, somewhere north of Northampton.
