Welcome Livie.

I'm sure you'll find the site full of information.
Most of the guys (and gals) are good "blokes!".

Post your boat in the boating chat so we can all see it properly

Hello Livie and welcome to the group. Feel free to post as many questions as you want as the members are probably getting a little pissed off with mine atm :-)

Oh! And imparting information is a good way to endear yourselves to the folk here......starting with your best GPS marks is brobably the way to go ;-)

cheers

Welcome to the site Livie. I'm relatively new to this site myself, but have already put thing I've learnt here into practice succesfully.

Nice ride you have there. I can understand the modification you did to the live tank. I never have enough room on a boat no matter how big it is. I'm in the process of reorganising the layout of my tinnie as I write.

Ask a lot of questions. We are all happy to answer them. Just be prepared to end up in Antartica or the Bermuda Triangle if you ask for GPS points... :P :P ;D ;D

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

[Mick]

How are ya Livie? I have also just joined so you're not the newest kid on the block. I am still trying to work out how to attach a photo. Hopefully there is a dirty old tuna next to this message.

[jimbob]

No dirty tuna here. Iam farley new as well this is a great site with heaps of information to be shared.

[Livie]

Im At grays point , Thinking of moving to Darwin for a few years as that is where My hart is and suits my persona.
Would love to hook up with ya mates, All my fishin mates moved to SEQ so I usualy go and live bait the hump or some reef or troll as far out wide as I dare for the day, On my own.
I was a spearo and found this pic last nite , Its scary

[Livie]

Its not Me :(

[aquarius]

Welcome to Ausfish Livie.
Look forward to seeing some of your fish pics.
I'm sure you will have fun on this site mate.
Cheers #Brent ;)

[wessel]

Nice sailfish there

You want scary, try what this wombat was doin.

Taken of Cape Town in South Africa. The guy was minding his own business when Mr Great WHite came to say hallo. He cruised around the spearo, came close for a scratch behind the ears, allowed the guy to grab his dorsal and took him for a ride. Dropped him off back where they started, did a bit of a jump to show off and then disappeared into the wild blue yonder.

I would have looked like the Michelin Man the way I would have filled that wetsuit with brown stuff::


In any case, welcome mate. As it has been said - the amount of info here is just incredible. To those that have helped me out - Thank you very much. It is appreciated.

Wessel

[Dug]

Well done livie, and welcome. See what you've done?? Start a newbie thread, and , to my count, you've sparked off at least 3 other newbies!! Good stuff.

Look forward to hearing more from you!
