WCS1317.jpg

We see a number of rock fishermen. I know that I am something of a worry wort but this activity looks
decidedly dangerous. Quite a few people have been carried to their deaths by sudden big waves
during such activity. The big problem is that victims strike their heads on rocks and either die
outright or subsequently drown. I don't know why they don't just post signs banning fishing in places
like this or else make them wear crash helmets. Gerry tells me that mandatory helments for rock fishing
is a coming regulation. I still don't like to see rock fishing.

I can see the temptation of fishing or just standing in this magnificent place, beautiful shot. V
