This morning we decided to go and try our luck fishing at the Broome Jetty again, this time we were armed with some bait instead of lures and poppers. I had a bite pretty quickly but it didn't stick and then nothing for the next hour or so, when I needed to go to the toilet, so I left Clare in charge of my fishing rod. No sooner had I got to the end of the jetty, did Clare get a big hook up. She tried to pull it up and it bit off my 50 pound trace. From wat they described it was probably a big Trevally or a Queenie. Nothing else for the rest of our time there but only one other bloke caught a fish.
We returned for lunch and a swim in the pool and then at low tide headed down to Gathumen Point to find the dinosaur footprints. It has to be a very low tide and this was the first time we could view them while we have been in Broome. Last time (2003) there was one other family there, this time it was busier than a Bourke Street, Myer window viewing on Christmas Eve. No problems finding them with all those people there.
Then we drove home the back way along the beach road back to the Port.
