Randall Bryett grew up on the Sunshine Coast of Australia with some the worlds best fishing around every corner. He has worked in many aspects of the fishing industry including chasing the Giant Black Marlin at the prestigious Lizard Island. He is a avid fly fisherman who likes to find his own path. When not traveling he resides in Northern California with his wife Kate and their adopted cats.
On August 23rd of this year Kate and I celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. I'm not sure of the symbolic metal or procedure for celebrating such an occasion. We will do what we always do I guess and go fishing! We met fishing when she and Billy Pate fished on my boat for sails and marlin back in April 1998 The weeks before we were married we worked at the Brisbane Boat show with myself doing some bait rigging for the fledgling magazine Bluewater Boats and Sportfishing and Kate doing a presentation on flyfishing the world. An awesome time we had and of course we met with and chat with the likes of Rod Harrison, Gary Howard, Peter Pakula, John Bethune and the late Peter Goadby. We also spent a week fishing Cape York with Greg Bethune's Carpentaria Seafaris on the old Capricorn Mist with friends Steve Starling and Ed Rice
Of course Kate was no stranger to fishing and both her parents fish (mine both fish also) her dad Peter Van Gytenbeek has a long running history with organizations such as Trout Unlimited and the FFF He also penned the book 'The Way of the Trout'
This of course leads me to this picture sent by my sister in law Carol. I'm guessing Kate's dress sense came from her mothers side! Wow the 70's were cool...
