Batemans Bay Trip

This is over a month overdue. I think I should probably get round to writing this/photo dumping.
Batemans Bay is a small town much like Victoria's Lakes Entrance but on the Southern coast of NSW. It was my second time staying there, the first being around 10 years ago. The town is known for they oysters which I have covered on my food blog. Other than that you can fish here. We only spent a few days here so we didn't really look for/find the best fishing spot and time of day for fishing. Although we did learn that morning and late afternoon were when the bites were. Late afternoon was mainly when we landed the legal sized fish. Morning was good for fun and catch little fish which were, if I dare say, cute and good to learn how to unhook fish.

 Like the reflection on the car roof?

 Walking along the boardwalk 
 Little crabs all over the rocks. It's interesting watching them eat.
 Look at all the oysters on the rocks. Free to whoever can pry them off, open them and dare to eat them. Very salty/briney taste.
 Trevally?
 Some place a 10 or so minute drive down from Batemans Bay. Tonnes of surfers there.
 Banksia. Actually really pretty.
 Some other random beach like place we drove past.
It was raining when I took the picture.
 Fishing rod. Couldn't be bothered holding the rod, just waited for my line to move.
 Really nice beach place we drove by as well. Skipped stones across the water. Did one epic one, 7 or 8 skips/bounces and it went really far =]
Some random chair somewhere.
