[Lucky_Phill]

Bream hey !

I reckon I could put my hat in the ring for this one.

Phill ( user of secret bream bait that blasts SP's out of the water )

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Phil,Since when did gelinite become "bait"?? :-X :P,secert bait eh!, cluck cluck, you would have to be all HEART to use this bait :-X ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D.Touchy.><>.

[snapattack]

Count me in. Looking forward to meeting a few fellow Ausfishers.

[SCOTTYGC]

anyone have a spare seat in a boat?

bait or plastics

scotty

[NeMo84]

sounds good to me, i'll be there armed with my sic stik, would also like to meet some fellow ausfishers too. Will be landbased but thats no problem, good idea Webby ;)

[Jeremy]

I am interested. Should be there. Might have a 'seat' in the boat. Will be using lures only. Plenty of time yet to sort things out.

Jeremy

[mulletgut]

Phil, what's your secret bait, I won't tell anyone. lol
Yep, I'll be there.
mulletgut

[beefaman]

Sounds like a great idea to me. Should be a good time, thats for sure!!!

[searaider]

Webby ,
Top idea count me in .

Just a sugestion ,
but how about recommending a single designated 27meg radio channel for everone at the the M&G to use ???

Peter
Searaider 2

[Billo]

I am a potential starter .Very keen , just got to plan out our open house inspeciton for the day to let me get out there ..

If i can get in , i will have a spare spot on my boat for any angler without a ride .

[Jeremy]

Webby ,

Good idea Peter, and same goes for those with VHF.

Jeremy

[snapattack]

Excellent idea with the radio. Caught two horse bream in the river on Monday afternoon land based near th mouth on the Northern side. I could see a few 4wds almost right out at the mouth. Can anyone tell me how to get all the way out there in a vehicle?

[finding_time]

I hope you reported them to harbour security snapattack they could have been terrorists!Were they in a no go zone?

[ken4159]

Be in it Webby it should be a good get togeather, fish or no fish
Ken

[SURF_SNIPER]

snapperattack, i think your talking about the area near the swerage outlet, if so these car got there by travelling to mrytle town and then turning off onto a dirt road that goes to the pickup zone for the sailors berthing at the fuel dock there. you can keep following this dirt track right up to the crap pipe line at the mouth. dont try it after rain unless in a 4wd as you soon be stuck in the mud!

Drew

[NeMo84]

hey billo i'll take that seat if your not giving it to someone else :)

[Fishin_Dan]

I'm in! :D Top idea Webby!!! Hopefully will have the boat recon'd by then. If so, will have a spare seat. Otherwise, land based it is....

[stevo]

It sounds like a great idea and i will be in if I'm free that weekend, will know as the date gets closer. :) ???

Stevo

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Spiderman,I have just sent you a pm. Touchy.><>.

[BigE]

have to check the roster ............. but it sounds like a goer to me ... onya brian

[webby]

I notice a couple of Boatless coming, so what about some of you Boatables offering a lift.
Mines Full as were only fishing casual.
Bit of a map below that mite help those not sure of the area.

[Dylan_Rylatt]

would love a trip out but i dont finish work till 4:30 pm on the weekends. So if anyone has a spare seat would love to share full and bait cost's. pm me if yah got a space

Thx everyone

Dylan

[joeT]

I'm relatively new to the forum, but I love to join in and meet some ausfishers :D

I have a 4.1 brooker and I'd be happy to take 2 other participants who are boatless. I think I'll be fishing plastics only and I'd be fishing only around the river (unless the weather is exceptional).

Anyone interested send me a pm.

[Lucky_Phill]

Jeez Brian, I hope you really don't mean what is printed at the bottom RHS of the map. ' hindsight '.

I was hoping for some ' insight ' into the area ! ::) ;D

All sounding good, so pm each other about getting a lift/ deckies spot etc. make aure you're organized prioir to going.

Cheers Phill

[Lucky_Phill]

Have made some changes to map Brian, for those looking for bream.

hope you'all can follow

Phill

[PinHead]

New permissible boundaries for some

[CHRIS_aka_GWH]

on what side of Mud is the surf webby so the real men can have a fish ? ::)

[Kendall]

I have worked out I will be home for this and would like to take part. One question though. It stated Ausfish members only, but could I bring my two teenage sons along as fishing partners even if they arent part of the comp?
Kendall

[webby]

Sure thing mate, never knock the kids back, they could be better then some of the adults. :-X

Chris what sort of surf do you want, will depend on how good your casting abilities are ;D

Anyway its not really a comp, more a Challenge to see which can produce the goods, and we just happend to have some people offer prizes, which are greatfully accepted.

We also have another prize offered by Jay Fishinmissin to his restrauant Montezumas Mt Gravatt, which will be work out soon, Thanks Jay.
regards

[Cheech]

You can probably put me and Matt ("Commodore" from Manly. No not "The Commodore" vicky point) down as well. Would be good for a meet and greet with those I already know, and those I have not had the pleasure yet.

Matt, we better get out there soon for a Bream run to get into practice. May be a good idea to find a new secret spot as well because I think we may need a ticket to access the other secret spots.

Cheech

[Commodore]

i'm with ya Cheech, ready when you are....should be some fun.
Will have to test out the new bait ;)
Matt

[longtail]

i only joined ausfish the other day , am i eligable to enter ??? if yes i'll be there with my secret bait [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]

[Cheech]

If you are a member, you are eligible. See you there on the night.

[madman1]

Is there a cost?

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

YES THERE IS A COST!!, 4 Bots of green death :-X. Touchy.><>.

[Jeremy]

I hope to be there and will be able to offer a ride to someone if I can make it. 9th of July is still too far away for me to make any definite plans. Will be lures only for me. I'll keep an eye on the thread and post again nearer the date.

Jeremy

[SNAFU]

sounds good to me,would like to meet some other ausfishers.sounds like a big evening.is BBQ at ramp park area.
SNAFU.

[SCOTTYGC]

i am unfortunatly going to have to pull out ( something i should have done 9 months ago) :-X
as we are expecting number 3 deckie that weekend

have fun
scotty

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Scotty, The bbq wont be the same without you mate(the fish would still of been safe tho' :P ;D),Crickey mate these women will go to great lenghts to stop a bloke going fishing wont they :'( :o, Cheers to you & the minister for war & finance & I wish you both all the very best & await word on the addition. Touchy

[Fishinmishin]

If all goes well and I've got my new rig :-/, I'll be in for sure [smiley=thumbsup.gif]. Look out breamys [smiley=uhoh.gif]. Don't know what I'll be using, but probably bait as I don't think I've ever tried or caught a bream on artificial :-[. I should have a spot or two on the boat and am willing to convert the boat to artificials if majority rules, but book my spots as last resort as they could fall through. I've attached my highly recommended bream spots I recommend everyone fishes if I fish the day ;D ::).
Cheers, Jay
PS- Thanks Brian, the bold font is greatly appriciated [smiley=thumbsup.gif], but now Big-Unit knows where to find me, and his Nanna when she's not home[smiley=thumbsdown.gif] ;D ;D .

[Big_unit]

Jay I am coming to get you. ( Sinister laugh and shotgun being loaded in background.)

Nanna says her Poodle is better endowed than you.

Cheers
James.

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Jay, Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't 3 of those "spots" (in red) in the middle of land 8) :-X, or did you just throw 'em in to confuse :-/ ;D.Touchy.><>.

[PinHead]

Touchy, didn't you know that is why fishing for Jay is a mission...an overland mission to hwere he thinks the fish might be.

[Fishinmishin]

Seems Rob's pic (below and in fav. pic. post) gives away the fact that he has stumbled upon one of my hot spots. Just don't give anymore away Rob to ensure the suckers fish the Mud shallows and river structures while I go off in my red hot spots ;D ::).
Cheers, Jay

[ON-THE-CHEW]

I will be keen, will be land based fishing hopefully giving you guys with boats a run for your money.

[sharkbait]

I'll be fishing mud island with bait if i can get out there. Having a test run tonight / tommorrow morning :) will post results...

[roz]

I would like travel up and fish this, but I don't know the area at all.

Roz

[mackmauler]

Roz,

I shouldnt let the secret out but lucky phill plans to stink any competition out, follow your nose and it will lead right to him.

no chickens were harmed in the making of the mud island fishn comp.

PROMISE :-X

[bungie]

Going by his map, Fishinmishin' new boat is going to be four wheel drive ::) :-X

[longtail]

heading down the brisbane river t/morrow (sun) after lunch , sort out my spots ;) maybe hang some no parking signs [smiley=stop.gif] ;D ;D

[webby]

Roz im sure if you turned up, some of these derelicks would show you around or let you tag along. Pretty hard to get lost out there.
regards

[Jason173]

Count me in. Probably fish bait and plastics if the rules allow it ;D It's still a fair way off though so I'll post later on if I have room on my rig for other ausfishers

Cheers,
Jason

[roz]

Thanx Webby,
I am tossing around whether or not to tow my boat up, if I do I would need a deckie who knows the place. If I just turn up without a boat, are there plenty of land based spots to fish? (without giving too much away). I am open to suggestions (reasonable ones).

roz

roz

[joeT]

Plenty of land based spots around, even the rocks around the ramp aren't too bad. Plus there seems to be plenty of spots on boats too. No one has contacted me, so looks like I might be fishing alone. Or I might just ditch the boat and hitch a ride with someone...

[webby]

Need a favour off someone who knows the area, one of the blokes who has thrown in some prizes Trevor Mayhew, wants to have a fish also, but seeing as my rig is full, need someone to offer him a spot, think he's a plastics man.
Plus it seems a few others also, so if your going solo or have room for one, you could end up with a good looker or a ugly duck, but who cares, so hands up those that can offer a ride.
Never no you both might learn something from each other ;D
regards

[Jeremy]

Webby,

you know my rig - can take up to 4 ;D, but I'll be happy to take 2 crew for the afternoon flicking plastics. Don't know my way around the area real well but I'm learning and I have a GPS to store any marks thrown my way ;D ;D.

You wanna organise crew for me, or should I put it out to PM?

You missed a great talk by Bob Kozien on Moreton Bay jew last night. I should have sent you a reminder.

Cheers,

Jeremy

[Volvo]

Without having read all the thread :-[, whats the chances of someone tellin me where this even is??... :-[

I went on a recon mission this morning to sound out some new ground.
When at the ramp I spoke to a bloke who looked like he new the area and I saw in the bottom of the tinny was a 12-15kg Jew.(he was all smiles)
It was a nice fish and came from the area's in question.

[Billo]

CHEERS RAY ;D

[Lucky_Phill]

The_Deckie plus one, to be added.

Phill

[Steven78]

I will be in but i might need a deckie

[bungie]

Bungie + 2 :)

[straddie]

I'll certainly be heading that way, but if I see the US 5th fleet sitting out there habit will see me wander off somewhere else. ::)

[searaider]

Webby,
Yes + GENNA as deckie

Peter
Searaider 2

[allniter]

Yes + son Jason as anchor wench ;D

[MICHAELG]

Webby

Count me in

Michael

[DR]

weather & work gods permitting, i will be there as well. although i won't be staying until the end ( 10.30 ) :)

[youngfisho]

well the roster came out. And Im working a late on the 9th. Peeved to say the least >:(. Will have to try and swap with one of my colleagues ;). So fingers crossed.

andrew

[Billo]

Webby , Yes i am in ...confirmed

Deckie not confirmed as yet ....will let me know on his roster next week, if he is a no go , will have a spot for a recruit #.

have we got a list of who is looking for a ride ?
just a thought - ( so not to confuse the process in the long strings of posts ) should we have a new sticky post of available seats and seats wanted for the trip ????


Long range forecasts calling for 15knott SW winds - Bring it on

[PinHead]

Yes..and probably the Flea also

[joeT]

Yes. Plus NeMo84 as deckie.

[PinHead]

The Flea (son) is now a definite

[thedeckie]

Webby,
Count me in,will have another gun fisho with me and bundy...

the deckie

[Billo]

I am on my own for the start Webby , will be meating some mates on the water ( non Ausfishers )

Obviously their catch will not count for my weigh in ............if i get anything to weigh ???

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Webby,ME ME ME,Count me in salior :-* :-* ;)Betty Boobtube

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Webby, Can I baitfish with you?,that silly old fart Touchy is gunna use frangers but I have heaps of my fav bream bait (whale flesh :-X) ready to go. :-*Betty

[youngfisho]

YIPPEEE ;D ;D ;D, have arranged a swap and now have the day off. So all is good for the river to mud plastic vs bait bash. As I said before there is a spot available on my boat so anyone is welcome. By the way is there any restriction on using bait and plastic. I plan to use plastics during the day and switch to bait in the evening. Mail me if anyone wants a spot on my boat.


andrew

[mud67]

4wd trip has been called off so mud67 and deckie will be there
Don"t know if bbq after using special bream bait is a good idea ??? :P

[NeilD]

What is the setup back at the M&G site? Is anybody going to hang around there during the afternoon? I am just out of hospital after a major knee reconstruction and stuck on crutches for the next few months. I certainly cannot fish but would't mind dropping by to meet a few people.

Neil

[webby]

Yeah Neil there will be someone there all the time, bbq starting around 4 or so, and those coming back at dusk, can hang around and have a bbq/drink and brag ;D
regards

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

G'Day Horse, C'Mon down, with the wind picking up acording to the forecast I doubt that I will be using plan B (Mud snapper spotX :-X) Sat arvo so plan A (Brissie river with the frangers)so should be back at the ramp 'round dusk, looking forward to saying g'day(plus it always a treat for me to meet someone that walks slower than I 8) :-X ;D ;D. Cheers Touchy.><>

[blaze]

LMAO at touchy wanting some one to walk slower than him, the green death could have a srong bearing on speed and direction
cheers
blaze

[MICHAELG]

I'm out -sorry to say. mix up of family commitments. Might try and get there for the BBQ and a drink tho

Michael

[NeilD]

Sounds like a plan to me. Couple of coldies and a bit of a chat. I will certainly try to get down for a while. Just need to organise some transport but that won't be much trouble.

Neil

[Burley_Boy]

Don't know how Saturday is panning out hence this is my first post re this, but browsing these posts I'm still not sure where the BBQ and base will be? Might be able to pop up for a while to say hi.
cheers BB

[beefaman]

The green death will be there somewhere, Touchy cant live without it!! He walks faster when he is pissed!!
The forecast isnt looking flash for Saturday arvo, so it could be a few coldies and some story telling :P

[Lucky_Phill]

Never fear. there will be shelter for any " rain " scaredy cats.

There will be a BBQ supplied as well as cooking equipment, kettle and water etc.

Best to byo seats. although there is seating under the purpose built shelter.

I will have the area set up early Sat morn. The Ausfish Banner will be flyinh high at some stage.

For those who do not know the river too well, and want to throw a franger or some smelly stuff, hunt me or Webby down and we will tell you " where to go " ;D ::) :P ;)

I will be on the water afternoon. no radio, so 0419 020 697 will get me.

Further info about the BBQ etc, will be posted here abouts tonight/ tomorrow.

By the way, anyone who thinks they are a casting wizz, get ya shoulders ready !

Further, does anyone have a set of digital scales to weight the fish on. need to go to 2kg I guess. I mean, how big a Bream are you going to knock over ?

Cheers Phill

[webby]

Hi BBQ is free for those inquiring, just bring your own lolly water or heavier stuff to ward off the cold.
BBQ Should start around 4pm.
Hopefully this friggin Low wont come in till late in the evening.
Trying to get onto the council or port authority to open the grass carpark for extra parking.
regards

[StevenM]

Good luck and have fun to all fishing the comp. May the weather gods be nice.

Cheers Steven

[terminaltackle]

Is there any chance of being allowed to enter at this late stage, Sorta new to all this stuff, but looking forward to having a gander during the night.

[webby]

Mate the way the wx shaping , no one might turn up ;D, anyway a little breeze will test your skills, or maybe the river will be awful crowded.
Come on down mate.
For those interested there will be Ausfish gear on sale, for those wanting any of the items Steve has for sale.
regards

[Cheech]

What is it with Ausfish events and wind....

Will still be there. Fortunately Matt is just as gun ho as me when it comes to a bit of adverse weather, so we will still be planning on heading to Mud late arvo.

With the westerly, it still should be pretty pleasant at the ramp/picnic area so don't be put off in coming over for a social chat.
