[wags on the water]

Well it's nearing that time again and I was wondering who's keen for it this year?
I'm in and JT there'll be no strong wind brought up from the south as I'm already in the central part of the state..;D

Cheers,
Wags

I paid Jimmy for a few of those spots....;)

[jtpython]

You can because i know you can't catch any fish mate so they are safe :P

[Vindicator]

JT, we'll be in the big blue and white boat behind you looking down on you're outboard making sure you don't get away. Can't have locals winning the event, you;ll never get anyone back for next year;D I was only up there a week ago, should have had the boat with me instead of the truck and tractor and I could have snuck in some practice

Cheers
Kezza

[jtpython]

Josh Fish during early morn/day DRINK @ nite ,,format/rules still needs some working on if last years comp is an indication:-[ ,but hopefully if they listen it will work;) anyway I will be there 8-)

Another fishing competition where you get rewarded for nothing. Coupla hundred if ya do well fishing or thousands if you just hang around drinking booze.
What a shame fishing comps are just NOT fishing comps any more.

[jtpython]

http://tightlines.net.au/
For the Coast Guard a very worthy cuase
JT

[NEWBY]

Why not just have a chook raffle then and a great big pi$$ up???
Why call it a fishing comp???
Fishing is secondary....
My 10 YO won a boat at the hookup this year but couldn't have it because he was out fishing......In THE fishing comp.....Go figure....

[jtpython]

I know mate But the 2 min rule and be there are the rules when ya signed on. And This is very much similiar to the hook up process.
Such is life
JT
And weather will probily be like it has for most fingers crossed
Plus i get to take my daughter in it this year she'll have a ball .......Watching Wags not catching fish lol
JT

[wags on the water]

Just making sure you'll have a complex again before you get here Wags

Don't need a postal vote, can also do an early vite if you're going to be away. Booths will be open for i think a week before.

Sorry what I meant was an absentee vote which is another way if you don't have access to a postal vote.

We are always open to new ideas. Juast post them here and if worthy I will put them to the next meeting and possibly include them in next years comp.
We are still learing and trying to do our best to put on a good time for all involved.

[wags on the water]

Harmsey - I'll be bunking down in JT's shed and we may be fishing in the same area......::) ::) ::) We'll keep an eye out for you. JT's rig --> Cruisecraft 550 Explorer and mine Cruisecraft 625 Outsider both powered by mighty Mercs..:P

I pity the poor bloke who was waiting to be towed in from barren island, when he got the radio call to say his car was leaking petrol back at the harbour. Some days ya just can't win.
