1770

[BeastMaster]

The BeastMaster headed north to 1770 over the recent school holidays, although the weather wasnt great every day , we managed to knocked off a few good feeds of fish.The Spanish mackerel were in plague numbers, we tagged and released five in less than 30minutes one morning, only having a relatively small freezer, we gave away a few in the creek on our way home on a couple of occassions , I'm pretty sure they were well recieved by the occupates of some of those small tinnies .We did a bit of an exploratory mission not to far out one morning and we found some really good quality grassy sweetlip, mixed in with some Spangles, tuskfish, trout , mosses, hussar etc . The plagic's were going off on slow trolled yakka's deployed on down riggers and we knocked off some decent GT's , Tea Leafs,bludgers and goldens. Double hook ups on the big chinaman's gave us some arm stretching moments only to be disappointed when they surfaced. Had a round of golf , a day at the rodeo, plenty of Pizza's, a morning at the markets and a few quiet ones at the pub and enjoyed plenty of sunsets.Enjoy the photo's.

Beastmaster are you from Brissy? How long does it take you to get up there towing the beast? I'm definately keen to get up there one day but reckon id need minimum a week to make the trip worthwhile.

Almako - The trip usually takes me about 6 to 6 1/2 hours from the south side of Brisbane .
Even a week goes too fast, 2 is a better option, gives you a bit of time to unwind.

Jtpython - only got 2 reds - didnt really target them, We love chasing the spanish up there, we didnt go very far, 40minutes out from the creek was the furthest we went.

Nice work Beast.

Mate, you'll have to come up for the annual M & G there held in September.

We usually get around 30 people, do overnight fishs at Lady Musgrave or Fitzroy Lagoons, spend some time at the tavern .

Well done on providing others with a feed on the way in.
