    Considerate Boaties

    Stayed up at Coochin On Thursday night and fished and crabbed early Friday morning . Couldn't raise a keeper Muddie with quite a few just undersize and a few Jennies. Picked up 16 good Whiting to around 35cm on the run out tide . A few guys fishing nearby scored a nice Jack on a dead bait , well done guys. I would just like to congratulate the two or three boats that were fishing around the mouth of the creek near me on Friday morning. Firstly all slowed down while passing and one even asked where my lines were and what side he could pass on . Thanks guys , for restoring my faith in fellow fisherman. I have on two or three occasions had boats roar past me cutting my line and nearly pulling the rod out of the boat. I don't if any of you guys are members of this forum , if you are thanks again and good fishing. Coochin.

    Karmas a b*#$h aint she, Hilly.

    Coochin, it is always refreshing to see people are willing to publicly thank and note the good things others do. Good on you for the good on them.

    All I want is to catch MORE legal fish!

    Yeah nothing gives me the squirts more than people not doing 6 knots within 30 metres. I only have a little tinny and usually fish up smaller creeks. I just don't think people understand what havoc they can cause. Most of them have the hide to give you a wave as they race past too. Depending on my mood that's either met with a blank stare or a shouted "6 knots knob jockey!"
