I'm still trying to find time to finish the video and tossing up whether to leave that part in. Yes devOcean is roomy but like all boats she shrinks on the water.

Heaps of action for the 3 Amigos and plenty of quality fish for the table, fridge, and friends. Shame that you didn't have more livies and that those pesky divers turned up, but you had probably done enough damage to the Dollies population anyway. Trust that your leg heals up ok. Beautiful boat Zoran. bn Thanks BN. In hindsight I think we had just enough livies - we'd caught enough and it was time to leave some for others. A few fish went to my neighbours. They put up with a lot. My boat is literally parked under their bedroom window and no matter how quiet we try to be with that final packing, loading ice, gear and the excited crew chit chat just always sounds so loud in the silence of 3-4am. ... but they still talk to me and look after the place when we're away. @Restyle Thanks and @Little_Flatty Was the report worth waiting for?

Hopefully that leg heals up quickly and you’re just left with a little scar to point out when the fishing stories start flying around a table one evening. Thanks Rob. The leg is healing fine ... but I have invested in some compound side cutter pliers which are now sitting in my first aid kit to make any future hook removal a lot easier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two stand out - the one of you operating on your leg injury while the crew keep fishing and the other is the pic of what I thought at first glimpse was a netted large banana Well done Team Amigos I am calling your vessel M.A.S.H. from now on! Thanks Donna ... and also thanks for the awards. Well I had to self operate as one of the crew had trouble with viewing such injuries (and we would risk having another medical episode on board), and the other was eager to help but with the rocking of the boat I assessed there was risk of extra injury being inflicted with a person hanging onto the hook - it was bad enough having a 70cm dollie hanging off it! Lots of bananas on the boat for sure - I had another one in my lunch box that didn't make the photo shoot. And of course I remember M.A.S.H. ... I grew up with it.... I just could not work out the acronym ... but "Mobile Angler Surgical Hospital" works. 👍 But please do not call during a hot bite - I lost a full 10min of fishing!!! Cheers Zoran 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully your leg heals up without to much fuss. That's an impressive amount of deck space on Devocean and you needed it for the brag mat! Hey Jason, it's especially good when you don't have to resort to Plan B, C, D ... the dollie meals so far have been delish. Legs doing fine thanks - no issues - apart from it keeping me out of the pool in this hot weather until the skin is healed! Yes devOcean is a roomy lady - she's now set a high bar if she is to continue being "a brag mat". Have you been out...used up any of those sinkers we cast yet? @Isaac Ct thanks mate... was a great day. On 3/5/2023 at 8:56 AM, Larkin said: What a haul! Well done skipper - got them onto the fish!

Piercing wasn't that bad. I told my daughter, who has multiple ear rings..."Thought I'd be hip so I got a piercing…but didn’t like how it looked ... or where it was … so I took it out myself." 😁 On 3/5/2023 at 10:22 AM, GordoRetired said: That looks like a great day out. Glad my burley idea helped. 🙂 Thanks Gordo ... it definitely made them hungry and kept them unfulfilled ! We'll i'm putting it down to that. Thanks @Fishingwazza2019 and @61 crusher ... I think we had enough by the time the divers turned up. Just shows you have to beat them there. Thanks for you well wishes re legs - they have been through the wars the first 3 months this year !

Hi Zoran, No trips for me unfortunately. The year hasn’t started that well really and there has been plenty of other family things happening. I am very keen and long overdue to get out on the water, hopefully it happens soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok! Ok! … I now realize your condition is much worse. You might need those cataracts finally taken care of, and then SpecSavers. Also please switch to SPs and give sniffing the bait a rest. Then please visit the shrink, coz this is a family friendly forum and if you’re imagining a threesome involving the three onboard🫣- YOU NEED HELP mate! cheers Z-Amigo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
