Cleaning Fishing Lures

Yup, that’s what we do at the end of the season.

More specifically, we’re almost ready to do the “jump” back down south to New Zealand, but not quite ready to do the heavy work of provisioning and preparing Charisma.

So…we’re sitting at anchor right now. Ann’s on the beach taking a walk with Lisa and I’m cleaning lures. The hooks have gotten rusty so I’ve got a file out and I’m filing the rust off the hooks and sharpening the points.

Quite an exciting life we lead sometimes!

  1. Love love the pictures! Ann it looks like the snorklers had lots of company!! Hope you have a lovely sail back to NZ! xxoo

  2. Actually sounds like a very relaxing day. Probably much needed before the excitement of sailing to NZ.

  3. Forget the lures. What happened to the pub on the second floor or where ever? Did you visit it? Was it cool?

    Ok, back to the lures. Do the fish care if they are a little rusty? Yeah, I know the hooks have to be sharp. Maybe, with the right attitude, it could be a Zen moment. Better than cleaning heads I suppose. I bet you can go to town and buy some brand new shiny ones. That would be more interesting than filing rust, seems to me.
