Do Ausfishers work?????

[PinHead]

Talk about an impromptu M&G on the Bay today:

In my boat was myself with Aigutso and RakinRay

Others in attendance:

Marlin Mike and his deckie
Outsiderskip and his deckie
2DKnB
Longtail and his deckie.
I also heard that Blackened was out there also.
I also saw another boat at Whyte Island..a large black Al boat with Ausfish stickers on it..not sure who that was.

Don't know where the fish were but they weren't where we were.

[dogsbody]

I went out today. Saw 2DKnB back at ramp. Also saw Bretty J at the ramp yesterday as well. So I guess not alot working this week.

No fish for me today either.

Dave

[jez and suze]

blackened was with me
we managed 5 schoolies up towards tangalooma and some sandies out in the paddock

[finga]

Nope, why work? :)
The crowd was going to get bigger too as Marlin Mike asked me to go as well but a doctor said I had to say gidday so that fun buster of a doctor stuffed my day. :(
A day on the bay would have been nicer then getting 'examined' :D

[jtpython]

COME ON GUYS
Get back to work some of us had to go back to work this week
JT

[Obi _ Wan]

Well Yeah! I was out there today also, had JM82 with me. Northern end of the bay though.

He goes back to work on Monday and on Monday i start looking for a job!!!!!! Lost my last one early last year apparently i'm to old at 63!!!!! figure that one.

Cheers,
John.

[Blackened]

G'day

Yep, think we saw you on the horizon somewhere greg, thanx for a good day again Jez

I wasn't at work today, trucks in for smash repairs still.... thats what happens when falcons run into you.

Dave

[gunna]

Greg - I work very hard at not working - does that count ;D ;D

[Marlin_Mike]

Was a small army of ausfishers out there. Bigger turn out than an organized M&G :D

I managd one doggy, a nice 70cm. Thanks for the late tip Dave, got him where you said, dropped a whole pilly and he took it before it got to the bottom.

Good day even with the rain.;D As you can see, quite dull at Tangas - thats Pinhead and crew in the pic. Next time fishies we wont be so kind ......

[Moonlighter]

Yep, I heard quite a few of you guys on the VHF.

Moonlighter had an excellent day fishing over at Peel Is, while you were all burning fuel in your big boats offshore! I was naturally careful to stay outside the GZ's!

See my post in saltwater inshore section.

[Lucky_Phill]

The only people to let the rest of us know they were heading out was Mike.

That's what the " Going Fishing " section is all about ;D :P

I was 75% there, but staff came first, unfortunately.

I was heading out wider off Gold Coast Dessert, but decided I can wait until next week when the swell drops out. Then I will be hitting the sunny coast.

I will post a " going fishing " thread .....


I think most are trying to avoid going back to work, but next week will be a different story.

Your day will come Greg, and you'll break in that new Rod. ;D ;D

Maybe tag along with me on a sunny coast adventure... ?

Phill removes foot from mouth and sinks slowly down in office chair.

Note to Phill.

G'day

There you go

Dave

[jez and suze]

thats dave's scundgy toe not mine.
had a great morning and as usual dave brought the glassy conditions.
dave, did you get three crabs? if so there must have been 7 as i ended up with 4.
one was hiding.

[Blackened]

G'day

Must have been a bonus, catch 6 get one free? I've got the 3, all cooked and cooled in the sink. Good to see mike got on to a fish up there as well.

Dave

[jez and suze]

yeah its a long way home with the tail between your legs!
done that trip many of times.

[Blackened]

G'day

Jez and myself also came across this this morning... that pot would be a 1.2 in diameter..... injuries are very very interesting, we took it into the beach and left it there for the hope of a ranger seeing it.

Any ideas?

its a turtle right? just wondering how it got into a pot and then to the surface to be hit by what looks to be a prop ??

G'day

No idea, I don't think it's a prop hit either, shell opening seemed to run down the shell most of the way..... but I could be wrong.

Total mystery to me

[captain rednut]

hi guys we were out today and went past you guys and didnt even know there was a meet on? maybe i should have looked in other sections of this forum to find out? ok next time, thanks jim/ryan 'AQUASITION'

[rakinray]

G/ day all just a quick thanx to Greg (Pinhead) for the trip in the "Yank Tank" top rig mate ! I think id better leave the BAY fishing to the Guru (Webby)after our shocker today ::) If anyone needs a pair of fishing pliers with all the gadgets then they should drop over to Mikes (Aigutso) place as he had about 8 pairs in his tackle box today :o Good company made up for the lack of fish and it also got Greg wondering about how far we could get on a full tank ;D Looks like that O/S trip is just around the corner ! Nice to also catch up with some of the Ausfish Boys and enjoy a "DAY OFF" ;D Might head down to PALMY thru the week while im still on holidays ;D Thanks again for the trip and look forward to the next one !


CHEERS RAY :D

[Horse]

We missed you guys. I tagged along with Bayfisher but we did not leave until 1.00pm as I had to keep the wheels of industry turning for the morning.
The fish were very quiet with little bait available. I pulled a nice Cod and another smaller specimen on plackies but the Macs were very elusive.

PMSL!
Nothing like a bit of salt in the wound! Especially when it's not your wound!
Nice one Lippa!

[wags on the water]

No work - no pay.....so you blokes must be getting paid all too well or maybe I need to change doctors ;D ;D ;D

Mike
NO SMOKO!!!! http://www.smileyhut.com/surprised/yikes.gif

Perish the thought.
That 'temporary' skipper has gotta be treading on delicate ground.
Bloody hell...no smoko on the 'Reef Princess'...what's the world coming too?? http://www.smileyhut.com/sad/depressed.gif

[preso]

Work? Cause we work. I was out there to on Thursday with my son. Worked hard for a feed all day. My first try for Spotties...........zero. Great day on the water though, had a ball. Will post for Phil next time:-[ .
Cheers John.

[Marlin_Mike]

Might try sunday when everyone goes back to work and the rush is over.

[adam_71]

Marlin Mike - Thanks for a top morning. I've wanted to go over there for a while now and it was great to get a guided tour. I didn't catch any fish, but I wasn't alone there, and at least you showed how it was done. I picked up a heap of good tips, from fishing to general boating.

Sounds like I should add one more to the lessons learnt - "decky is responsible for smoko". Sorry mate, you should have mentioned it the night before - I'd have baked a cake ;) . That's a good call though - I'll have to drop the hint to my regular deckies! Thanks again.
