I want to share with you that we have had two extra passengers on board for the duration of the trip, that we are calling the ‘freeloaders’. That’s not very nice, you might think, to refer to friends in such a way. And how come you haven’t mentioned them before? Well, the ‘freeloaders’ are actually two fishing rods that have been trawling on every trip since we set out, and guess what – not a single, solitary fish! Very disappointing. Despite tips from the locals, a wide selection of lures, live bait…..nothing. So they deserve their nickname.
Scott is not ready to give up on them just yet though.
