Fun Australia Day Barra Trip To Monduran - Roll Call?

[SeekingBarradise]

Hi everyone we hope you had a Merry Xmas & Happy New Year.

We should be heading up to Lake Monduran for a bit of chilled out camping and fishing on the Aussie Day Long Weekend. Kel looks like she can get the time off work which is great.

We will be filming the trip for fun and would like to film some fellow Ausfisho's fishing and camping if that's ok.

Let us know if you are up there at the same time please. It would be great to catchup for a yarn or 10.

Cheers Kel & Lyndon.

[NAGG]

Lyndon ....... sounds like a great time to be at Mondy
Unfortunately ....... I'll be packing for my move North .....:(

Are you going to make the Bash ?

Chris

[black_sheep]

Hey Lyndon,

Happy New Year to you and Kel too mate.

Our normal crew will be there (Vin, Ben, Paul....) for the long weekend staying in cabins 3 and 4. Will catch up for a beer either around your camp or up at the cabins.

Looking forward to it.

Hi Chris Happy New Year.

I hope to get up for the Borumba Bash. I'll need to stock the lake with barra a few weeks before i get there!!!!! It's not too far from there to Mondy you know!!!!

If everything works out i would love to be there mate it will be great fun and i had a ball at the Sweetwater M&G and the Mondy Muster last year. Good luck with the move.

Navi: Happy New Year. That's great to hear the usual crew will be up at Mondy on Aussie Day. We will catchup for sure. Lot's to talk about. We will have to throw around a few plastics I've been mucking around with etc. I reckon it's only a matter of time before Foxie starts stirring you guys on here before the big trip!!!

Cheers Lyndon.

Chris

chris me too, i had the grand -dog over the break, 7 month old shepard, while the eldest went to sydney..excuse not to have kids yet i think but enjoyed her company and she looooves papa, beach everyday...prob harder than kids...;)

[DEANO68]

sorry lyndon, bit of a hijack...8-)

[SeekingBarradise]

All good Deano it's just like a chat around a campfire - no hijack. I will catch you at one of the other M&G etc.

Paul thats great i'll see you there with your usual crew. Should be more than a few hijinks with all you guys together!!! One of your crew always seem to land a big fish. Hope this continues.

Nathan yep crack out the camp ovens for sure. I'm already thinking of how much cow i'm going to buy. I remember not long ago when i bought so much cow from the butcher next to Foxies. I went shopping hungry - not a good idea. I nearly got away with it however Kel saw the photo and docket and asked if i was feeding a family of ten?...

Brian good to see you will be up there at the same time. I'll keep an eye out or a swag on the fence line. You are known as the phantom, but i should be able to track you down for a chat over the 3 days!!!

Steve let me know when you are coming out to the camp mate. All good maybe turn up in the Ambo like last time and freak out the stand in manager again ha.
If you bring out the ambo we might have to do a stretcher G-up scene.

Chewy that's great i'll see you there mate. Hope for a wet pitch and quick game of cricket mate.

Nipsta i had the good old wisdom teeth out mate and you are better off with them out that's for sure. You will look like a chipmunk for a while but it's worth it.
I'll see you up there another time mate.

Cheers Lyndon

[TonyM]

Hi Lyndon and the rest of the motley crew :D

I hope to get up that weekend, even if for a quick overnighter to say g'day. Might even drag the tin lids up if I can drag them away from electronics for a while!

Cheers
Tony

[SeekingBarradise]

Hi Tony if you could make it for a yarn and spot of relaxed camping that would be great mate. Yep bring the tin lids too they will love it.

Steve B will be signing Autographs at Foxies on saturday arvo.
Foxie is a bit older so he has a stamp made up with his signature on it!!!

Cheers Lyndon.

Tempting........but no, we'll be there in mid February.

Happy birthday Brian & Nathan. I don't know what's worse - drifting through your mid forties (I'm 46) or kissing your youth a fond goodbye!!;) ;D

Have a great Aussie day weekend and best wishes in advance for your birthday Whitto.......

[BR65]

New moon on the 26th........

[Whitto]

New moon on the 26th........Noice Brian Noice

[Big_Ren]

New moon on the 26th........

May keep one or two away Brian...from the basin. Not us. Hopefully my spotty works fine....otherwise I will be following the natural instincts of Navi and Vin, or worse still, the waywardness of Ben....can you see barbed wire in the dark Barb?

[BR65]

I could only imagine the crowds on a long week end full moon period Paul, frightnin!

Black as the inside of a cows gizzards runing home from up the back after sun down on a new moon hey, even with the GPS and spottie, and a little bit of knowlwdge on where Im going, I still had trouble getting out of North B last New Moon when I fished on.

[chewy01]

Hey paul, no doubt ur spottie works well you looked like a floating disco or house of ill repute that night last trip when you and navi were meandering all over the dam looking for the channel,specially with the red bling glowing :):):)

[TonyM]

I'll second that re the new moon, as will Alistair I'm sure :-X Last trip we did a few new moon night fishes and were getting back to camp around 3ish for an hour or so kip before hitting the sunrise bite!

On the trip back in the wee hours of the morning with no starlight due to the storms it was a nice slowwww trip especially as I discovered my night vision has gone west on me and the GPS decided to play up at random intervals :D

Mondy update, my cobber was up there today with his handbrake and yard ape for a look, they are camping at Baffle at the moment, fished some points and had a troll but didnt see a fish, but as he got off the water around 4.30, a stream of boats were puting in - locals maybe fishing the moon rise?

[BR65]

Deano, congrats on the new tub mate, hope she is a fishy machine for you. Mate didnt hit the water till after 9.30 this morn, he said plenty of bait showing.

[chewy01]

Watching the radar guys if they were putting in then they would have found it difficult to see anything,should have had acouple inches after that if what we got was any indication with more tomorrow

[BR65]

Yep Chewy, he did make small mention about beiing p#ssed down on lol

[DEANO68]

deano8-)

[BR65]

Mate, the best time to be on the water is when everyone else is sooking at home, nice and quiet as long as you dont get blown away, I like fishing in the rain, plus the beer keeps its chill that bit longer!

[Big_Ren]

Hey paul, no doubt ur spottie works well you looked like a floating disco or house of ill repute that night last trip when you and navi were meandering all over the dam looking for the channel,specially with the red bling glowing :):):)

I must have been distracted looking for a water Chewy if you saw us meandering;D Lucky FrankOO wasn't on board the rum pig;)

[chewy01]

Id be surprised if navi knew you were on the water,specially given his donuts for the weekend..was he actually fishing??

[TonyM]

Tony and sunrise........................Does Not Compute........................;D

Hey watch it!

[Big_Ren]

Who knows if he was fishing Chew. I couldn't see him::) His run of donuts is starting to worry me and hope it does not rub off.....he could be a barra voodoo doll;D .
