The Easter Fishing Bonanza

Easter brought a long weekend so in the classic kiwi tradition, Jess, Andrew, Ingrid and Marcos (friends of Jess' from Vila) and I decided to go for a break at Lonoc Beach. It was a weekend of fishing, cooking fish and eating fish, interspersed with swimming, snorkling, beach cricket and general merriment. The pic's above show the boy's heading out on the first evening. They came back with a big yellow fin tuna and a wahou. Sunday was spent cooking the fish using a variety of techniques (including smoking at Champagne Beach as depicted) and of course eating. Then it was out again on Monday morning to haul in a bucketload (literally) of blue fin and another yellow fin. A leisurely trip home taking in Reef Motel and the Matevulu Blue Hole ended a perfect easter weekend.
