Where are you going for Xmas ?

[Lucky_Phill]

Well people, the festive season is getting closer. I hope by now most of you fishos have made plans. I have chosen Hervey Bay this year. Taking the family and the tent and the Stessl and parking meself at Torquay. A week in this place should have it sorted out for return trips throughout the year. Been advised to take some poppa's. I'd like to know where everyone else is going this year, and maybe we can get a report on what you all got up to.

Awoonga! (and Gladstone)

Going to my caravan at Laurieton on the NSW Holiday Coast.

I hear that the Lizards are biting, the Jews are about and also the whiting should be on by then. Also, if the weather is good, I just know that there will be some nice reds outside waiting for me.

Have a great silly season everyone!!!!!!!!!!

Yours in fishing.

G'day Phil,

Its now up to 70 views and eight replies. So I just thought I'd tell you that I'll be back in SEQ mid December after four months in Bougainville(just North of the Solomon Islands). The fishing is fantastic over here. But I'll be keen to mix it with the SEQ Bass and Mangrove Jack population and I might even try and get a few trips out with Smithy and his mates chasing Billfish and other pelagics. Good luck in Hervey Bay.

Matt

Lucky Phil, I heard that Barra like it hot, so I reckon we can handle it!!! Have to have a siesta in the middle of the day, though!

[Lucky_Phill]

Good to see some replies commin in !!! Sorry to hear that you are working Luke It looks as if a lot of people are going away for the break. Hope you all do as good as can be expected in the Silly Season. Please folks, take care over the hols, enjoy a beer or two, but in the right place. We'd like to see you all back here after Xmas. And I believe that Katrina is going to post some ripper pics of her Barra

Like most of you, I consider myself the average " Yobbo " fisho, who'll get onto the water at the lamest excuse. But I'd like to hear from people that set out over Xmas, target a particular fish and have their plan come together. I usually go out and hope to get a feed. But I would hope that all the info I have harvested over the year through this site and in Mags, and on tele, will have sunk in and my homework pays off. Having said that, I am really just looking forward to getting away from the city, and enjoying the company of strangers in another place who are there to do the same as me....... RELAX !!!!!!!!! 8)
