Your on the right track Boys....She who must be obeyed has to be reasonably happen as u well know.....Got home from Monduran at lunchtime and if enthusiasm plays a part in the scheme of things at the ABT, Nagg and Matt will do very well, they have put in alot of hours for an 80 something cm Barra........All the best everyone competing in the Tournament, fish well fish hard......Cheers Whitto

Got ya thanks mate....Sounds like a wet and hard slog.
I did hear that Monduran had turned over a week or so back, dont know enough about it to comment, but that was a couple of more senoir fisho's theories.
That fish you got must have been the last caught for a while!!!! What size was it????

98 tip to tip mate, came at the end of a loooong days fishing, missed a couple and dropped a couple in the space of half an hour, right on sun set.
New motto : Never Give UP!

Good luck in the ABT mate, and to all the other AFers. Hope Matt has acclimatised already. I'm sure you lot would have led him astray on Saturday night.;D
Cheers

Got a call from Trev (Awoonga) tonight, he and Scott are at Faust at the moment.
The call was to thank me for ordering the wind that they are copping up there at the moment, 30 - 35 knots ;D
It seems that the wind i copped up there, three weeks of it, 4th to 24th of Oct., have continued :o
What in the hell is it with this bloody wind we are getting?????? >:(
Anyway i hope for their sake and the other ABT competitors that it eases and allows them to at least enjoy the magnificent lake that Faust is 8-)
Cheers,
John.

Just had a quick look at results after 4 rounds (1 to go at Mondy this weekend) and Ausfishers are doing well:
In the individual results NAGG (Chris) is 12th and JEKS (Katie) is 19th.
In team results Katie and her mum are 10th and Chris & Matt (Barraboss) are 12th.......
The Taylor boys are killing everyone!!
Not sure who else are Ausfish members....................

stev b is there and he is sitting in 40th but if you look at the table there isnt much between the top few and really all it will take is a homer for stev at mondy and hes in the ball game again taylors are at the top but not that far in front also the matrix (Jason Wilhelm) who has been on ausfish from time to time and help a few of us is sitting in 5th so go the ausfish boys
and naggs caught the bigest fish at awoonga 106 but it doesnt show that in the table so not sure on that one but it is in the results oh and trev awoonga is also right up the top too so go get them fellow
i got to say how good are those talior boys there just on fire and in touch with barra fishing will be good to see how they go at mondy though not sure on there
knowlodge of the place i say there like johhny mitchell fish magnet and top anglers

Just got a text from the Taylor boys and JM. Cy won the Monduran round.
Taylor Brothers overall champions. And Southern Champions. Again.
A great effort.
Both placed 1st & 2nd Overall & Southern rounds.
At such a young age this is amazing.
Amazing also is the fact that they said they found the fishing tough in all of the rounds even though they won.
We might not see this again. Guys so young to win against a field where
everyone is older. Then do it a few years in a row.
Congratulations Cy & Kerrin on your awesome achievements. You and your
family must be so proud.
Cheers Lyndon & Kel.
Those guys are fish magnets, well done boys, and to all who travelled and fished, congrats!
