Michael,
Wouldn't say I've got the run down, but think its been a while since anything decent has been caught out of the river there near the town. Heard someone say they still get a couple of decent lizards heading a fair way up the creek.
I've got a feed of whiting before at this time of year in the corner on the beach side of the wall. If you get an eddie formed with a bit of a rip against the wall, it goes out about 20m and moves away from the wall and onto a sand bank; there sits the whiting. Wasn't much size in them though.
I should be at North Minnie Waters camp ground for a few nights starting wednesday night. You taking your boat, or got ausfish stickers or something? Might have a wander over Wooli way and see if I can spot ya.
If you are over minnie waters way, or going for a drive up the beach to sandon river, have a look out for my cruiser. pic attached. plate: JJF-068
Cheers
Jeff

Michael,
OK will look out for you. Guess you are staying at Wooli caravan park in town there?
Might bring a couple of tins of blue paint to give your tub a fresh coat. ;D
Geoff West sounds a bit familiar. My bloody grey matter has trouble nowadays. Is / was he a surveyor?
Anyway, I probably won't be on here again for a while. Fly out from Manila 8pm tonight, arrive bris 5am tue, then get the gear together and head down wed.
Catch ya down there hopefully.
Cheers
Jeff
