A fishing tale of three men in a boat from Jervis Bay 1929.

Jervis Bay Snippets - The Blue Mountain Star Saturday 26 October 1929,

Messrs, B.G. Lambert, Jim Murphy and Bernie Neenan were on a fishing trip to Jervis Bay and Bernie tells the following Story. Bernie makes no claims to be another George Washington, but when he tells you a story earnestly you may safely accept it. One morning Bernie had hooked a nice red bream and was pulling him in,  when a swift swimming barracuda swallowed the bream. Bernie went on hauling,  when suddenly from the depths a blunt, nosed monster swallowed the barracuda,  and Bernie had nothing to haul. The shark had the bream,  the baracuda, as well as the lead and hooks. Bernie's face was a study,  but with resignation in his voice he said;- "What do you think of that boys? I think I'd like to have a beer." He had it.
