All the Finnish lass wanted was a shark and she got it.

Post by buzzdog »

Riikka, our Au-Pair (Nanny) Linda's friend from Finland has come over to Australia for a bit of a holiday. I asked Linda if Riikka would like to go for a fish, she said that Riika said 'yes'.
What better way for Riikka to spend her first day in Australian then to head out for a fish. She said that back home the only fish she has caught were small Salmon and the one thing, above all, that she really wanted to catch is a shark; I said that I couldn't promise anything but we'll give it a crack.
Well we weren't disappointed, we dropped 3 small Barra, my son Kahel, Linda and Riikka caught a heap of small Javelin fish and Bream and Riikka caught landed herself a cranky arse shark. My son Kahel wanted to have a try with the shark, he held it for a few minutes before he handed the rod back and stated that it was too heavy.
Well done Riikka, you did well to fight and subdue the shark, your first one to date.

Nice one. Should be part of the naturalisation test. Should have employed Jeffish to put her onto a 3m lemon. That would have tested her will :D
