FISH & 4 WHEELS ON SWEERS!

Late last year we had a return visit from Eddie Riddle and his team, filming for the new series of Fish & 4 Wheels. So keep an eye out for the programme which should be airing soon. If you miss it on local tv you will probably be able to see it re-run on the Lifestyle Channel.

Here is the film crew: 

Eddie (presenter), Keith (sound technician) and Jason (Cameraman). With a Morning Glory Roll Cloud passing overhead.

and here's Keith Harveyson with his famous double-hook-up!

And some pictures from previous years....

And here's Damien Taylor, his trip was organised by 'Got One Mildura' and Rich River Aviation flew him and his mates to Sweers - in one day! No wonder he was in a hurry to get here - check out the beautiful (9lb) Barra he caught off the beach before brekky one morning! 

Damien caught his fish using a Crystal power tip rod with a Corsair reel and gold Killalure River Rat lure. Well done, Damien!

First time visitors, Ray & Judy Hafner, arrived from Brisbane  - First Visit, First Day, First Fish!

That's Ray Hafner with his 17lb Spanish Mackerel - well done, Ray!

That was Day One...a week later Ray and Judy are on the Final Day of their holiday and the Mackerel got his revenge....

Ray actually watched the big Mack leap from the water and twist, snapping his rod into EIGHT PIECES - that fish is still out there, so who wants to have another go at catching him???

Never mind, Ray - we put your rod to good use.....check out the new Wind Chimes...
