Great morning
Went fishing on Friday, April 14, 2017

Had a wonderful morning fishing in cairns with jim from gone fishing.  I would recommend this charter to anyone.  Jim was very patient and knowledgeable and kept us entertained with his tips and stories. I caught the fish of the day which Jim kindly cleaned and packed in ice for me to take.
