High tide round 2pm, so will be 1st hour of run out against the 15-20kt SE blowing at the airport at the moment, could be ugly. Maybe try somewhere a bit more sheltered, like tingalpa creek, not too far from wello point.

been up there once in my brothers tinny , i know there is crap everywhere that is to be avoided but dont know the creek to well at all , chains from the houseboat and submerged rocks are bad for a glass boat .

not real sure of the depths and stuff in tinny creek

We've always put in at the gravel ramp next to the road bridge, mind you my brothers boat is only a 4.1 poly. Upstream of the bridge is fairly clear water, after the first corner up from the road bridge is a bit of a strait, there was a bloke in a 5-5.5 glass boat up there towing people on a couple of tubes the other week.
