Have you ever watched how many people try and turn up 10 minutes before 6pm, Im not sure why so many people have to wait till the last moment to pull there boat out. No wonder Old Jeffro gets p...ed off. I haven't had any issues with old Jeffro, I'll flick him the NT newspaper in the morning and get back before the crowds. I'll sit up on the rocks with a cold beer then watch the "benny hill show" best way to finsh the day at dundee I reckon. Even better watching people recover there own boats, trying to mix it with the tractors, only to get in the way and then get bogged. I haven't seen to many people successfully retrieve there own boat from there before.
I hope the place never gets a ramp.

Finding enjoyment in others struggles and misfortunes, that's the spirit.....

Thats not it at all, I help were I can and plenty of people down there do lend a hand, I also enjoy having a beer after a big day on the water it just also comes with a nice view.

Just for everyones info there was 2 tractors operating last weekend and probably has been for a while as I havent been out there for ages.

Cost is now $25 and the road is sealed all the way out apart from two small creek crossings and the last 500m to the lodge.

Cheers.

That is an awfully long 500meters there storm boy, more like a few kilometers. The other news is they are bridging the Annie as well.

good to hear the road is almost sealed all the way, might be able to tow the big fibreglass boat out there!

Might miss out on fishing Bynoe and a few spots going down, but will be able to go further south :-)

Jethro has been great everytime i was there in the past, only annoying thing was having to wait your turn occasionally to launch when there are 20 boats doing the same.

Eventually there will be a decent ramp of some sort i am sure

good to here you got a few cunno
