    Smile Went and got these - better be careful!

    SWMBO suggested I should go for a fish yesterday arvo as the weather was just real nice.

    I looked about and found this water - looked fishy to me.

    nice little trip BUT . . . .

    As I have done numerous trips offshore in the boat for $200 plus fuel burns and returned with not much and now i am doing little $3 trips in the car and coming home with fish SWMBO (She Who Must Be Obeyed) might start rationalising $/kg and offer some advice

    SMD - the location is spot X

    S-S not there but thanks for the tip - will check it out

    If anyone else wants to guess a spot that should look like this I am happy to be told

    Some people asked about how I prepare the fish and cook it - ie make the fillet without skin and without bones - I have posted it in cooking section here FYI - happy to share some things :-

    I thought the mouth of Nudgee Creek was a green zone.

    Trev that's good work apart from the obvious downside of highlighting fuel to fish ratios....

    Maybe tell her they are 'fresher' offshore??? Good luck with the explanation....

    I am glad someone explained the Nunya as I could only find it in good old USA for trout - and I wasn't about to go and check it out.

    Nudgee a green zone - wow that was close Mike thanks for that - didn't know I was being set-up!

    Walrus - missus is accountant gifted so I am stuffed there - the only thing saving my boat is all the transom stuff has brought her to think I could only sell it for 2 cents so may as well keep the boat - still though that doesn't put fuel in the tank - and one day I will do well offshore

    i'm sure your'e only problem is you are not going far enough away trev. i think you need to spend at least $350 on your offshore trips
    fishing's as simple as 3 P's - patience, perserverance and PLASTIC!

    1(a). But would $350 take you out of radio range?

    3(c) but then again I have:-
    (i) a boat epirb and
    (ii) a personal epirb on my jacket

    4(d) so I can get into twice as much trouble
