QLD: it's off to fraser island we go...we're back (pics)

[Astro]

putting the final touches to my packing before i load the yak for an early get away...

so josh (..............), paul (paulo), holger (hollgi) and myself are off to fraser island for an extended kayak fishing/sailing/camping trip...

here are just some of the logistics:

1 x island
8 x days
4 x mad keen kayak fishermen
4 x adventure islands
12 x rods & reels
200+ x lures
8 x HD cameras
Batteries: enough to choke a wide neck animal
memory storage: enough to run NASA satellite program
4 x camping gear
4 x Food and water

See you on the flip side…

Good luck Astro. After reading Paul's recent Fraser trip report from I'm pretty envious. Gee it would be a long drive from down here but I reckon I will have to make the effort sometime.

Cheers
Grant

Another awesome trip report coming up

[grinner]

astro, heres some pics of wathumba creek to wet your appetite , hope you make it there.
a very pretty spot

[Yakass]

Oh yeah... we'll make it to Wathumba, for sure. My guess is we'll be there day 2, if not day 1 (we're launching at Hervey Bay and heading nth... sth east winds coming up the rear, yeehar)!

[Gatesy]

can't wait for the reports

[grinner]

josh, its got really good facilities and hardly anyone goes there. its a long drive and a long haul by boat. good trevally on those flats as well. national parks even put in cold showers i think. you can often only get into the creek at high tide. in school holidays theres a few there , but dont be surprised if you have the place to yourself

[ArWeTherYet]

You lucky lucky bastards!

Sounds like a great adventure, have fun.

[Dallas]

Good luck guys, looks like a great trip

[Gatesy]

Sounds like a great adventure

What? Their kayaks or the trip?

I'm so jealous... going to have to live the dream through you fellas.

I planned a trip to Fraiser for August 2010; but just found out last week that our first bubs will be due june/july! DOH!

Look forward to the trip reports!

[paffoh]

Enjoy it, I know I would...

Safe travels dudes...

[rawprawn]

Just came back from a week on Fraser. If they have still have had no rain you can look forward to the tracks being very rutted and boggy. Ripped the bash plate off the Navarra on one inland track

Still a great place.

[Barrabundy]

Is that the place where they've measured 3kg's of turd per square metre during holiday season?

Ok....I'm just jealous. I have seriously heard that statistic though.

Can't wait for the trip report.

[Cuda]

Have a safe, fish filled trip fellas. We look forward to stellar trip reports.
