Gone fishin

[alongtimegone]

Gone fishin' … there's a sign upon his door.
Gone fishin' … he ain't workin' anymore


Well I reckon the tide’ll will be right tonight.
The moon’ll be full and high.
And I’m bettin’ the snapper will be on the bite,
so I’m off to give it a try.

Pillies and squid should do for bait,
and maybe a prawn or two,
and I’m thinkin’, “Tonight’s the night old mate.
Tonight they’ll be on the chew.”

I’m certain I’m gonna fill the creel.
It’s a given. It’s certain. It’s done.
Already my heart is beating fast.
I can hear that rachet run.

Then I’m liftin’ and reelin’ and screamin’ “I’m on”
And settlin’ in for the fight.
Perhaps I’ll be broken. The line’ll go slack.
Or maybe I’ll keep it all tight.

But either way I know in my heart
I’ll spend the next day just wishin’,
I could hang on my door, a permanent sign
that says, quite simply, “Gone Fishin”.

'Onya Wazza.
Sometimes the anticipation turns out better then the event - at least that's been the case with me when it comes to fishing.

Cheers Jeff

HEY WAZZA when are we going me gears ready, You catch them in the air before the fall down after I've blown them up out of the water.

You're right Jeff. The anticipation is always up there, despite coming home empty on the previous trip.

Bill that's a strategy I've never tried. I guess you'd always be guaranteed a feed.
