where were you off to this morning Shane???

we got a feed of muddies this morn, best time of year to crab I reckon, they are allways full at Easter prior to shutting up shop for winter

[flatzie]

I hit the Dbrook yestreday amid the spray of a thousand boats and 25 knot easterlies.
had my two boys on board and after an hour of being blown all over the place trying to fish SPS and then very few hits on yabbies we went home for the coffee big time with hot cross buns. So fish wise prob my worst morn out there but was still to jetlagged to care lol!
(Shane yes Im around in that time frame so lets do it, maybe some tailor as well? Looks like the dams are really hard at the moment, im gonna wait till september till all the water settles down to the new levels with old weed beds dying off and all the new ones formed.)

Plenty on the water Flatzie, we knew it would be crowded, but had a go as well.
Amazes me the number of tossers that have no concept of slowing down as they pass within 10 meters of you as your lifting/setting pots, there really is no sense of common courtesy with some of these clowns out there on the water.

Brian that sand bank that runs about 50m out from the beach Should start holding flathead there shortly if they are not already there we used to troll it with pike for tailor years ago we trolled from windy corner the reef out the front of Mcdonald rd past the rock that comes out of the water infront of the old baths and along the sand bank we used to go home with 10 t0 20 flathead at a time this was in the late 80's have not tried it since but no reason they would not still hang out there
