Nice fish Matt, I was talking to Max Frost the other day and he said a few 1.5-1.8 kg bream had been taken off the racks :D

Can't wait to tangle with these monsters again.

does anyone have spare space on a campsite? share costs and such? not that $50 for 2 days is expensive if I have to get my own.

Sorry YATB, Mrs Sulo and I are sharing our site with Crazyratsister and Tcurve. See if you can get a site close to powered site 3. We can stay up all night tellin' manly stories about Nelson Bay and in the mornin', I'm makin' waffles !


Or else maybe bugger the waffles.More than likely I'll have had too many beers and won't make anything.

Just hope it doesn't bloody rain.

Urgent message to those camping

You need to call the camp ground as the camping areas have been closed due to excessive rain - supposedly this will be reassessed on Monday. I just had a call from Tryhard (no computer access at the moment) and he asked me to post this up

Well done, Kerrie

At this point, we'll be able to launch the hobies, with fins, right from the shore! :shock:

Hopefully all will subside before next weekend! :?

I saw a bloke pull in a terrific bream this morning over at Tuncurry - at least 35cm & probably closer to 40cm! :shock: Big blue nose with big teeth! He got it on mullet.

The water in the lake is chocolate coloured, so I guess they'll hit even harder when they find food! :) Hope so, anyway!
