Radio Norfolk Archive No.9

We were talking last week about some of the trips we undertook in the 80's and 90's with Radio Norfolk listeners and someone mentioned the fishing trip that I went on in Fijji during our round-the-world journey. By the time we'd got there I'd just about recovered from the fishing trip in Cairns when the tops of my legs got burnt to the point that I was walking like someone with splits tied to their thighs! In Fijji there was no organised fishing so I had to organise one myself! These two guys run a glass bottom boat taking people out over the coral reef to view the little fishes. As you can see, I was after something bigger and caught these on lines wrapped round old cable drums and dropped 50 feet over the seaward side of the reef. I gave the fish to the locals !
