Pelicans...

I took Rhiannon and Sian fishing again this evening, it's becoming a regular thing, and a great way to wind down after work.

It's only a 5 minute walk to the local jetty and we shared a small rod between the three of us.


We didn't catch any fish but we got loads of bites and little fish scoffed almost all of our bait. I think we need to be casting a little further out. The girls are pretty good at casting now and don't mind handing me bait to hook on for them.

Just before we left a large pelican flew in and swam close to us for a look. For a laugh I threw him some bait (whiting) and we almost fell over laughing when he opened up his huge beak and caught it! That was it, the fishing came to an abrupt end as the girls lobbed food his way for the next ten minutes - great fun!
