Thoughts about this Weekend

[blairv70]

So what does everyone think about this weekend?

Hanging for a fish and the BoM is saying 10/15 Sat Arvo to Sunday Lunch

I am thinking of a run over to Curtin on Saturday arvo bay Sunday Morning

How does Curtin Fish at night?

Do you think the swell will be down in the bay?

Have a 5.5M which can handle the swell ok - just getting too old to get battered about if it is too lumpy.

Leaving from Port of Brisbane

Cheers

Its been blowing its ar$e off all week from the ESE, and they are saying 15 to 20 E all morning. It will be interesting to see if their prediction of it dropping to 10-15 SE after lunch actually happens.

So will be a solid set running I would have thought across the middle of the Bay. Add some tidal run and I don't think it will be very pleasant out there in the open.

i think the likelihood is that you will get a bashing, but watch the forecast and actual wind strength readings on Saturday morning and see what is actually happening versus what is predicted, and make a call then.

I agree with Moonlighter, it will be pretty average out in the middle. Personally i wouldnt, theres always another day.

Starting to have the same thought - maybe the southern bay will be a bit better

Wondering how it would be across the southern bay then run up the east side of Moreton? Perhaps a bit more sheltered?

Just watched a boat go out from Manly, went about 300m out from the channel markers, turned around and came back in. I wounder about some boaties, you could see from the shore it was crap. The weekend is not going to be much different, I would head south around the bay islands if your keen.

You could launch say at Victoria Pt and go across to Straddie then up the Rainbow channel. To get north along Moreton in sheltered waters then means going across the area behind the bar, which will be seriuosly rough with the easterly swell, then to Reeders and then theres a long, slow trip in the "go slow" zone thru to the Blue Hole. Then you could head north along the beach close in, I guess, if you want to get to areas like Cowan.....

A very, very long way around if you think about it. Very long.

Better off targeting squire and sweeties around McLeay Is and Coochie if you are desperate to wet a line. Or ting, flatties etc around the southern islands or rivers.
