Ngkala Rocks

During our successful negotiation of the Ngkala rocks bypass on Mon, I forgot to turn on the GoPro so with one last day we decided to go up to Ngkala Rocks and film our efforts in negotiating this tricky bypass. With the rain some of the holes in the track had water in them and again we had to wait while someone got themselves out of a bogged situation. It is quite amazing how some people avoid letting their tyre pressure down until they are bogged. Despite the deeper ruts we went through without any problems. On the other side I stopped and spoke to a couple of guys fishing to see if there was any action but it was the same story I had heard further south, no tailer, just a few small dart.

It was now time to see if I could catch a fish, I could not go 7 days on Fraser Island without throwing in a line. The recommended time was 2 hours before high tide so we headed back to camp, Jacky decided to stay at camp and read and I got the fishing gear ready and headed down to the beach. I selected a nice gutter between two groups of fishermen and spent the next 2 hours enjoying the serenity. They say a bad day fishing is better that a good day at work so it was a good day.
