    onerabbit (Muzz),

    Would it be viable to use a different bar crossing if Ballina is dodgey?

    Cheers. Bondy

    Evans or Brunswick. Evans is about halfa to the south and Bruns is about 45 (I think) to the north.

    Mattooty,

    Brunswick bar is a mongrel at the best of times also, Sounds like Evans is better than Brunswick

    will depend on the swell direction... anything from the south and evans is a great bar all 3 can be very dangerous bars

    That's true. All bars need respect regardless what conditions

    I was going to suggest that we keep Evans as a second choice for the outing,
    anyone who wants to give Bruns a go can do so without me,
    it's more dodgy than Ballina.

    Iguess it's time we decided when everyone would like to go jacket hunting,
    I know thatMurf is busy on the 7th,
    how how about we make a tentitive arrangement for the following weekend??
    That would be the weekend 13-14?? (weather permitting)

    If Ballina Bar turns to crap we will have to follow Stonecold to his secret jacket spot in Evans,
    or get a starter mark if he cant come.

    Either way they wont be hard to find,
    last weekend we had so many follow up the hooked fish that my mate just lowered his trace into the water & caught a jacket without letting any line go......that's as thick as I have ever seen them.

    Matt & Ben, I recon you guys should get onto Oscar-Byron (Dean), this would be a good opportunity for him to give the new rig a go, & good that he can go in a group.

    OK,
    lets try to make it happen for Saturday the 13th,
    it wont be a very long outing at sea Mark, maybe you could squeeze it in in the morning
    last weekend it took about 2 hours to catch an undisclosed number of jackets,
    my 6 foot fish box was full.

    Murf, I am sure I have contact details for you,
    so I will make contact over this coming weekend.
    Bondy, please send me your landline number again, and I will ring you also.

    Anyone else who is interested will be most welcome, & I will share the gps mark for our destination with anyone who would like it,
    its about 500mtrs north of Ballina FAD.


    why does everyone look at me strange when I say I want to find them LOL

    I had that problem at work today,
    at lunchtime I had a box of deep-fried jackets

    my supervisor just shook his head.
