M & G Peel, trip info

[Lucky_Phill]

Well folks, it looks like someone forgot to turn the fan off. >:(

At this stage the wind will be a little too much for most smaller craft to cross to Peel in safety. Let alone anchor up on the Western side of Horseshoe Bay.

Forecast is for lighter winds from the S/W inshore early, but picking up considerably during the day.

For those who would like to fish close to Moreton or Straddie, this should be OK, going early and staying til late/ overnite there. But Peel is out, sorry.

Plan 'B' now comes into effect.

A Marquee will be erected at the Wellington Point Reserve early Sunday morning. The Ausfish Flag will be flying.

Here's a plan 'B' attachment. Fish Brent's spot early and make your way back to camp midday or later. You can get the missus and kids to meet ya's there for lunch. ???

A jetski will be there with some skiing gear that kids can make use of :- ski tube for the littler ones and a Space shuttle thingie ( see Bugman ) for the older guys.( life jackets will be provided )

Tables, chairs and BBQ will be provided along with the accessories needed for a barbie ( sauce, salt pepper, servettes etc etc ),

So bring your steaks, snags and rolls and salad stuff, and even a beer. ;)

Just to confirm that there is toilets close, shower, swings, shade and grassed areas.

So, at this stage, can you post your plans here so we'all know what's doin ' ( maybe Brent can bring some sweeties to the BBQ, if I've left any there for him ? ) :P :P :P

Hey Phil thats sounds like a top plan mate.....Im a bit worried about leaving the boat somewhere while we are at the bbq.....I ve had rods stollen before.....My plan is to fish my spot early (not the best tide)low tide at 10am.then motor around king island into waterloo bay and anchor up on the sand there...maybe troll for a flattie or three.....this way i can keep a watch over the boat and fishing gear...high tide is around 4pm so there will be enough water to get back out and around king for the trip back to wello....what do you reckon Phil?
I might have to change my spot X this weekend..lol ;D ;D
Cheers Brent

[Lucky-Phill]

Hey Rob, Monday looks good, you mean you ain't workin ? It's only a holiday for members of the public, us self employed folk don't get those freebies :P :P ;D ;)

Yes Brent, that's a good plan, as we intend to be there all day.

Well Miss Betty, we'll have to meet another day.......... ;)

NOT # THE # DART #!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brent,

I was working on the basis that at 4.00 am it would probably be OK and if the south-east kicked in I would camp down at Blaksleys.

Anyway, when I left home just before 4.00am it was obvious that the trip over to Peel was not on. So all dressed up and no place to go.!! I decided to go down to Jacobs Well and spend the weekend there.

Camped down near the Pin in the lee of the sou-east. Not having any cooking gear was something of a set back, but this was compensated for by the ice cold beer. Saturday night was superb and the wind kept away the mossies and sand-flies.

Caught a variety of fish, including a number of flatties on lures. Kept some, released some.

I would vote for an M+G at the Pin anytime. Its virtually weather proof, secure parking at Horizon Shores, sensational camp sites and simple all tide access to your boat. On top of that, live bait is plentiful (no mullet though) and so were the fish.

Was hoping to get to the BBQ today at Wello but just ran out of time. There is always next time.

Phil (not the lucky phil)

Hey Argo Phill...mate when we arrived at spot X at Wello on sunday morning there was a small boat on that spot and i thought it was you.
Started shouting to you from a distance and the person in question answered me......Mate he caught 3 nice size sweeties....this should have been you.....had a good laugh when i read your post..lol
fisherman02 and i were convinced we were talking to you..lol..maybe his name was phil.....We thought it strange when he left and didn't come over and say see ya..lol.
Gee fishing sure gives ya a laugh at times.
Mate there was no way you would have been able to fish there Saturday arvo...the sea was a bit lumpy but i manged 2 keepers....this saturday mate...high tide at around 10am...might see the real Phil this time ay..lol
Cheers Brent ;D ;D

[Lucky_Phill]
