[stesslecc60]

Guday all;
was just reading the above mentioned post and seemings as the last one was back in june, i thought i would start a-fresh.
The names Paul, only a newby to ausfish but find it a good read. For work i manage a Beaurepaires store, and have done so for about 7 years. I love my fishing, dont think i need to explain why! got a 4.5mtr stessl c/console with a 60 yami, perfect for everything i want to do. Also have a 7mtr plate with a 225, but she's on the market, never get time to use her. Look forward to any reply's and a safe chrissy and new years to you all, wether on the road or water.

cheers Paul.;)

(ps, call into your local Beaurepaires, and ask for 10% off your next set of tyres, tell em Paul from Maryborough sent you!!)

[squizzytaylor]

Boat is a 455 Polycraft quickcraft side console with a 60hp Tohatsu.

Barra resorces have hit a nice little intersection of about 10300g a ton. Pretty impressive but still early days.

Hi dave, i owned quite a few barra last year and unloaded them, yes it was a good intercept but such hits can be very isolated and can be very disspointing when it comes to total resource ounces, go look at what pacrim ( asx code pre) has been turning up at its redcliffe deposit, read last 6 months of announcements at thier website, its shallow, broad zones and very good grades, has great potential to be a very big cheap to mine deposit, at 5.2 or under its a very very good punt.;D

[Sandman]

Hi GUys possibly done this before aswell but for new members i am Regional Case Manger for the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Qld , Currently my region is from Caboolture out to Kingaroy up tp Yeepoon out wide to Emerald.
Love my fishing and dont do enough of it only wish i could take my boat when i head north. I hope to eventually stick to the city limits so i can pop out for a quick fish instead of spending time in traffic.

Hi everyone, I'm a plumber and drainer by trade, have now joined BCC as an plumbing inspector. Now I don't have the stress of sh1t hitting the fan.

I live near beenleigh, so usually fish the pin or starting to head out offshore more as new boat is more capable.

[MY-TopEnder]

Assistant Product Manager - Construction Products (Pacific)... I work for the biggest Abrasives company in Australia in the construction products division.

I basically look after Bricksaws, Blocksaws, Road Saws, Core Drilling machinery, Core Drills and Diamond Blades.

Fishing wise, I'm boatless at the moment but once the new year settles in I'll be looking for a small tinny.

[Bear001]

Book-keeper. Plus my husband & I have an earthmoving business...trucks, bobcats, excavators etc..... so that keeps me busy enough.

Fish the local dams, ie Lake Keepit, Split Rock, Glenbawn & once or twice a year drag the tinny over the coast to South West Rocks or somewhere near.

Just got my new 400 Hornet Trophy - so will probably drag it around a whole lot more!!!!

[Mtx]

IT Manager in a large agricultural company.
have a Blue Fin Weekender - fish maily peel - the pin

Looking for an upgrade early in the new year :)

[Scorpion1080]

At the moment wanting to move into Mining Engineering. My old man is a consultant for all the big oil companies and has a few contacts to help get me in.

Location: Sunny Coast (QLD) 40% of the time, 10% Sydney (NSW), 40% Melb (VIC), 10% Barossa (SA).

Yeah, I get lots of breaks and do lots of traveling for pleasure and for work. In 3months time my living arrangements will have changed again due to work.

[poundalead]

I am a Brickie based out of Maryborough QLD, I employ two apprentices which keep me on my toes. I fish out of a 20ft centre-console platey with a 100hp Yam 4-stroke. I'm too busy to do enough fishing (the mrs reckons I do enough!), but hopefully over chrissie i'll get a chance if the weather holds out.

[Janelle]

Am a qualified gemmologist and diamond technologist (seriously that is an actual job). I do consulting work for jewellery companies and lecture for the Gemmological Association. Past life studied Marine Ecology (and btw don't agree with the green zones). Now work in fishing tackle as well as doing the consulting work.

Fish out of a 4.8m Galeforce , live in Redland Bay so mostly fish the bay, though am owed a few Barra trips which I intend to claim this year.

[mad_pierre06]

G'day all. Spent many years in delivery driving, then warehousing. Got to Warehouse Manager for an Australia- wide co., then decided to go studying after enforced unemploymentsy. Have also worked casual running bars at Lang Park and the Whips 'n' Spurs Bar at Doomben race course. If you're at Doomben, come up to the Whips bar and say g'day.

After studying full time for 18 mths. of the last two years, i'm now currently putting together an application to become a school chaplain. Very hopeful of being accepted, as working with troubled kids is a passion of mine.

Fishing wise, i'm land based and will drive up to an hour and a half either north or south of brissie to wet a line. Pending regular work this year, my plan is to purchase an X-Trail and a tinnie, around 13 - 14 foot.

[Crestcutter]

Sweet as a nut. We missed out this year when he came back too soon after his heart op and had to take a rest again. He plays a bloody good show here every year, and in my bar we stay open for the hour afterwards while he's playin.
