M&G List

[Mick]

Would love to mate and although I live in central Qld, it is still an 8 hour drive for me. Geez central QLD covers some ground!!!!!! Maybe if it was a bit further north.

BladeRunner, picking a spare weekend may be hard, they're definately not taken up by fishing as the wind is a pain in the arse at the moment.
I will do everything in my power to be there, so I guess, I'll be there. The weekend of the 4th and 5th is out, I've got kids parties and Rocky's Fire in the Sky Fireworks on Saturday arvo, and we're going to Curtis Island chasing beech worms on the Sunday.
Any other time after that is good for me. I have nothing planned.

Mick, where do you come from that is 8 hours from Gladdy, yet is still classed as CQ. Don't get me wrong, I'd tell everyone I was from CQ even if I lived in the middle of the desert, the area is fantastic. My train of thought is that you would be around the Home Hill / Ayr area. I class anything north of Mackay as NQ, and it's only 5 hours away.

I think we may have to consider a venue carefully, as we may be able to drag some of those Rockvegas fisho's along. Will put some thought into it and see what we can come up with.

Still going to M&G at 1770... definately

[bay_firey]

Start work in Rocky on the 29th, but will be back and forth to Hervey Bay most weekends for a bit until I get a house organised and get the family and furniture moved.

If the dates fit I will probably come along

[Mick]

Corry, between Bowen and Home Hill. I drove down to 1770 a few months ago and it took me 8 hours (one stop for lunch). Some organisations call it North QLD and some call it central QLD. I refer to the Barrier Reef zoning maps and Bureau of Meterology weather sites which say I am central Qld. That, and I am smack, bang half way up the Qld coast (in kms).
I would still like to catch up with some ausfishers in my area as I am pretty new to the site.
Kind regards, Mick

[krakatinny]

sounds like a plan to me . pick a time & place will try to be there.

[Needmorerum]

Mick, I think living there you could call it CQ, what an awesome area. I lived in Townsville for 5 years and naturally, it was classed as NQ, and obviously had nothing on your area. I used to travel down to Gladstone most weekends for the first year, to see the then girlfriend, she's now my wife, so I'm not sure if that was a good idea. The previous 21/2 years was travelling up from Brisbane every weekend. I think I still have part ownership in Mobil fuels.
What type of fishing do you do in your area? My old man lives at Sarina so I try and get up there as much as I can. I have been thinking of taking the big boat up there for a weeks holiday, although that won't happen for a while now, I've taken the week off for 1770. Are you coming down for the M&G there?

krakatinny, where do you come from, another CQLD'er. The group is getting bigger and bigger as the days go on.
Jeff, are you still there, Volvo, what about you? What are your thoughts on having a drink, and you to JD, interested. Oh... that's a silly question isn't it.
So where are we going to have it, are there any from the Rocky area interested, and for those at Boyne/Tanumm, do you want to travel into town, or do you want to have it out there. There's only one pub out there. Obviously, I am bias towards the Yacht Club, as it is my usual haunt, and you can watch the commotion on the ramp of a Sunday arvo. Either way, I'm easy.

Awaiting thoughts.

[krakatinny]

Corry I live at EMU PARK

[Mick]

Corry, will try and get to 1770. There is one other ausfish member that I know of in my area and we have discussed possibilities of the 1770 meet and greet.
As for the fishing here, I love it. This area is a small paridise on the QLD coast. Mainly chase the mackeral in Winter, creek species in summer and dive all year round for trout, crays and trophy pelagics.
Townsville might be having there own meet and greet, so at this stage I might head there as its alot closer.

Kind regards,

Mick

I'll have to get onto you next time I'm up that way. We are looking at doing some more fishing around the Keppels in the new year. JD (CQ_Fisher) will probably bring his boat up as well. Look forward to catching up.
