SATURDAY 26th MAY

Up and away not much happening at the roadside stop. We are heading for a place about 120kms south of Broome for 3 nights as we are booked into Broome from the 29th May.Wendy found a place called Port Smith which sounds good. Stopped at Roebuck Roadhouse what an interesting place. They have two  full size Brahman cattle in the bar and a huge crocodile (all models). The bar is decorated with Bull horns and the toilets are called "The Shitters". There are a lot of interesting characters up here!!
Port Smith is on aboriginal land and hasaccessto a largelagoon. We set up our vans had lunch and headed for the lagoon. You can only fish at lowtide and they are huge here. 

You have to walk a few hundred metres to fish in lagoon.

Interesting sign

All fish have to be cleaned back at camp and offal disposed of in a huge pit in the ground to keep sharks and crocodiles away from the lagoon.
