hey guys,

any ideas on where the next akff trip for the SE QLDers will be?,

 

[hairymick]

That sounds like a plan to me Benny

 

[Shoey]

If its going to be an over-nighter, some time in January might be better now that the silly season is fast approaching. Only problem at that time is school holidays and people everywhere.

Great idea Ben, i'm sure there are enough of us to make a great trip/ weekend, happen soon. Agree with above re silly season. When the NSW boys were "voting" for the best spot and time for a get together i thought hey what about SE Qld ??? ( no offence guys - just jealous thats all ) We may have to organise something next year ( shudder ...... what the year gone already??? ) but I think the response would be good and a good spot with plenty of notice may be necessary. I vote for Boreen Pt on the Australia Day long weekend ( its on a friday next year) . Mate it will be here before we know it!!. Huge lake for padelling /pedalling, freshwater bass one way, estuary the other ( flatties etc ) and offshore stuff out the front only a short drive away. What say you Queenslanders????

Ben we were chatting at Cressbrook last weekend and I proposed a weekend trip to Poona in about March and it was agreed to give that a run.

But no firm date will be proposed until the new year

 

[hairymick]

Anywhere north of Brisbane works for me.

Poona would be excellent. :twisted: :lol:

 

[Fishing Man]

sounds good,

where abouts is Poona and what sorts of fish are on the cards there?

Ben read this http://www.akff.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4332

I reckon Poona is a winner, on the sandy straights, so species would range from whiting, bream, jacks and flatties in the creek to macs, tuna, barra (if you're lucky) and trevally out in the passage.

 

[Fishing Man]

i think the Golden Trevally would be a good target up there on the flats,

Fishmatics and I have talked about a weekend trip over on Moreton Island. Plenty of sheltered bay fishing, or nick across the other side for some offshore work around Cape Moreton.

 

[hairymick]

G'day Ben,

Poona is about half way along the western side of the Great Sandy Straights. (About 2 & a half hours drive north from Brisnane.)

ya turn off at Gympie on the Tin Can Bay road and then turn off on the Maryborough Road.

 

[Guest]

Is Poona anywhere near Lenthalls Dam?

Maybe swing over there for some barra action.

Cheers

 

[fishinswing]

I agree, Poona is the goer. You should be able to catch a wide variety of fish up there. Can't wait for that one.

Sel, Poona is about 20 - 30 mins from maryborough, so not a long drive to Lenthals, I'd be keen to go up there for a look too.

 

[hairymick]

Lenthall's is about an hour away from Poona

 

[imagineer]

Count me in if I may.

We talking after Christmas or before?

Cheers
Neil

Anyone seen maps of the new Green zone or whatever it's called? I've heard a lot of the Sandy Straits area will be closed.

 

[hairymick]

G'day JD,

As I understand it, the place closed that will mostly affect fishermen is the area around Little Woody island. A long way from Poona. There are other areas and restrictions but lttle that will affect us.

Even Marine Parks are having some difficulties defining exactly where the boundaries are. :shock:

Sounds like an ideal venue for a future Qld AKFF weekend...

I concur Tony, in the new year after school holidays into autumn period

I agree Richo, and will keep an eye on this thread as I plan to attend !

Just to keep the whole quote thing going....I can make it if its late Jan/early Feb. Would love to be there.
Cheers,
Jake
