[QUOTE="StoneTheCrows, post: 587925, member: 12064"] Great fish RM I have a yarn from Jervis Bay years ago Those not familiar with JB - Aussie Navy uses the bay frequently for running up ships after refits and testing. I was on HMAS Adelaide must have been mid 80's We had just come out of refit and had spent 2 days doing laps of the bay. :sunny: A mate and I decided while going round in circles we may as well drop a line off the back and have a trawl. :Y: 30 minutes into our fishing and a tiny little tinnie started following us and then out came the loud hailer. Captain stopped the ship and was told in no uncertain terms trawling was not allowed in Jervis Bay. oops :( Needless to say mate and I were in deep trouble. :bomb: Had shore leave cancelled for two months - no fish either. 8.( [/QUOTE]
