My
wife
and
I
went
on
a
4
day
fishing
trip
with
ocean
blue
with
my
two
brothers
and
their
wives
plus
nephew
and
girlfriend.
25
yo
to
65
yo.
It
was
a
long
overdue
family
catch-up
as
we
live
on
different
sides
of
Australia.
Huge
variation
in
fishing
experience
and
keenness
to
fish
all
day
in
our
group.
Unfortunately
3
of
our
4
days
happened
to
be
poor
weather
-
windy
and
rain.
Can’t
plan
that
in
advance.
Last
day
was
a
brilliant
day
with
flat
seas,
blue
skies
and
stunning
scenery
uninterrupted
by
rain
and
clouds.
We
had
a
really
time.
Erin
was
really
excellent
in
helping
us
get
organised
for
each
days
fishing
or
activities
(ie
when
a
couple
of
wives
had
a
day
off
fishing).
Boats
were
well
suited
and
in
very
good
condition.
Alistair
has
done
a
great
job
to
have
them
in
such
good
condition
after
the
2
cyclones.
Even
in
challenging
sea
conditions
(and
I’m
not
a
good
sailor)
I
felt
totally
safe
because
of
the
condition
of
the
boats
and
the
experience
/
skill
of
the
young
skippers.
Skippers
Patrick
and
Luke
(on
the
boats
I
went
on)
were
clearly
skilled
in
running
the
boats
and
good
fishing
guides
-
but
most
of
all
they
were
totally
attuned
to
and
concerned
about
making
sure
we
were
having
a
good
time.
For
example,
when
it
was
getting
lumpy
they
checked
whether
we
wanted
to
move
into
more
protected
waters
behind
islands
to
be
more
comfortable.
My
brothers
went
out
with
skipper
Sammi
who
also
was
an
enormous
character
a
bit
like
the
everready
bunny.
We
caught
some
fish
(my
best
a
20kg
dogtooth)
but
that
was
not
the
highlight
of
the
trip.
We
had
a
really
good
time
and
Vanuatu
is
truly
beautiful.
The
location,
accommodation
and
food
at
Trees
and
Fishes
was
simply
first
rate.
It
seems
rude
calling
them
“staff”
because
they
were
so
friendly
and
attuned
to
making
us
have
a
good
time.
Thank
you
Erin,
Patrick,
Luke
(and
Sammi)
and
Ali
for
making
our
trip
so
good.
