Marla the Marlin

or

A Fish called Wenda

Wednesday 10th June, 2009, I was in Dampier and was lucky enough to get taken out on the water.  The following pics tell the story:

Justin (2nd son) sets the lure lines

  A ship waiting to dock and take on iron ore.   

Keeping a watchful eye on us.

Yours truly in action mode     Come on Sweetie 

Justin gets ready to tag the fish  

   A bit of a dance      

Justin grabs the bill.  (I never thought I would live to see this happen.)

  Welcome aboard      

 Welcome to Marla the Marlin

or

A Fish called Wenda

whichever you prefer  

Justin and Kevin the skipper get the fish swimming again

And some of the fish we used for bait ....

All in all a good time was had by all. 

P.S.   I am not sure about the fish though.
