… breaking one of our records on the Goldens was great

October 25, 2010 by Jim & Harry Leave a Comment

What a great place, it is a credit to you both. Fishing was great and breaking one of our records on the Goldens was great experience (32).

(Harry the drover of the sea) the Jack fishing was also good up the mangroves with the picnic lunch.

Jim this is one great place to visit, will see you again next year.

Peter Butler knows “not a lot” about fishing…

October 21, 2010 by Peter Leave a Comment

peter butler golden trevally Peter Butler knows “not a lot” about fishing…Peter Butler catches the biggest fish of the day, yippee. A gorgeous Golden Trevally.

The same day we were landing Malibar Groper’s, Estuary Cod’s, Broad Barred Spanish Mackeral’s, Brassy Trevally’s by the dozen and a Jawfish. The strikes were every couple of minutes so it was a real action morning.

Here’s the video of Peter reeling in his catch. He was rapt as he knows “not a lot” about fishing even though he’s Harry Butler’s brother. Harry is the main fishing guide for the Wilderness Island and he literally drove us straight to our catching strip and within minutes we were landing these babies.

Good mates Jim and Harry had the same vision as kids, to live on an island. They're now living that dream.

Life is nice living on a secluded and tranquil eco island with the best fishing on the planet. You too can now share the Wilderness Island experience.
