Hurray iv tried this so many times must be pick's. We fished with Steve from Australian angling and had a ball, Tim was our Deckie and did a great job, weather started out graet but gradually got worse, as this happenend the fishing got better. We took a week to cruise up to Cooktown fishing the whole way. When tired and sore from casting we trolled and i was lucky enough to be on strike for 2 little blacks. good variety of fish and a great bunch of blokes.
You other boys get in here and add in the details im over the pc at the mo!!! going to watch the vid again to take me back. Special thanks to Duncan for once again getting me onto a great trip and to Steve for opening my eyes to what can attract a Marlin.

Good stuff Mat looks like you boys had a great trip ;D Brock told me those Shakures worked really well.
Hey Duncan can we buy those fish head shirts, they look sweet.

Hi Jay,
I just picked up a delivery of the shirts this morning. They go in sizes from XS to 4XL. Cooktown was their first outing and they were really comfortable. UPF rated and quick drying. They are $69.95.
You can order them by emailing [email protected] We will put them on the online store after Christmas when the madness subsides here.
Cheers,
Janelle
PS Jay did you get the CD of photos from Duncan?

For reference:
Shirt sizing
Janelle - XS
Duncan - Medium
Matt - ????? - what did you wear Matt? I think it was 2XL
Can't remember but I think Brock was either a medium or large. Jay I think Medium would be your size.
Cheers,
Janelle

Hi Mat
Good to hear you enjoyed yourself, will catch up in the new year when I come to Brisbane. Glad I could be of assistance with the special formula attractant. I have Brock's tickets to Japan, I reckon he will be coming with a empty suit case bet it doesn't come back that way.

Matt,
I am glad you think I am sweet but you will be pleased to know you were only a 2XL. The 4XL's didn't exist back then. After Christmas if you enjoy too much cheer there will be a 4XL here waiting for you.
