Brett,

The good folk at Fishntales forum have told me that Wathumba is good for access at around 1/2 tide up. It has cold showers and toilets for any who want some creature comforts and camping is $5.45 per night if you throw up a tent. No charge if you stick to your boat. As a base its close to the Spotty grounds but about 11NM to Roonies. Its been quite a few years since I slept in the creek but I know that at times the Mossies and sandflies can be thick

Yea, I think the best option is to only head into Wathumba if it starts to blow. That will keep the Sandflies away

I have just put up a brief report in the Offshore Salt water section from my last trip to the Break Sea Spit area. The fish are there boys and girls!!!!!!!!!!

Young bloke is driving his fiancee up to Moura for prac studies on the 23rd and asked me if I could pick him up so he can leave a car up there for her, sure mate no problems consider it locked in.
Thank dad you saved me a packet from flying home !!!
Driving to work tonight something rattled around in the control unit 23rd 23rd what was on that weekend ??????

So in closing Perry the beers are still forthcoming it just may have to be a mini 1770 M&G now ;)
Have a good weekend fella's play nicely :)

Is it worth putting in a few crab pots for around Roonies ????. A feed of fresh crabs and a cold beer after chasing little blacks all day sounds good to me.

Yes............................................

Have got some free accommodation in town so it will be day trips for me. Giddy up!

Good news Macca
Shame you can't swing the Sat night out on the Bay

Baby steps horse. Working on it.

Think all the skippers should run a assie flag same as 1770....

sounds like a plan Chong, I still have mine attached since 1770 so all ready to go..
Be nice when we get the Ausfish Flags up and running for event s like this..

Cheers
Brett

I agree Brett, but it would even be better with an Ausfish flag ?????
