Dunk island Day 3

Elizabeth was devasted that I didnt take her out yesterday morning, so I woke her up and we went down to the dock at 6:00 am. The garbage tender was there until 7:00. Elizabeth fished with a soft plastic -- eventually it came in with its tail removed. I tried a bendback minnow fly, and got two small fish that grunted. They looked like queenfish -- but they were so small they could have been any predator that was silver, 6" long, and travally shaped. No more success, and Elizabeth got bored, so we went back to the hotel. The day was hot, but with high winds. The water was whipped into a mess. I was booked on a fishing charter, but it was cancelled. Tried in the evening and no luck. There was another bait fisherman there on the jetty, and he had no luck either.
