To all you Northern blokes, my apologies for being slack. Fishing and boating SE QLD is just not the same....Weekends are always blowing and week days, when you can't get away from work, are great!
Been across Moreton Bay a few times, took the kids snorkeling around the Tangalooma wrecks (still seem to survey the area for crocs out of habit!), out the eastern side for some bottom bouncing for &#$@ all, several times.
Eventually bought home a keeper a couple of weeks ago but the family has Omega 3 withdrawals. Fishing SE QLD is just not the same and its killing me
Gotta tell you, the wind chill factor in a centre console boat @ 50 Kms on a morning that is 7 deg is criminal (Matt, I need a frozen Emoticon)
Anyway, can't complain cause you blokes are only laughing anyway.
The last few times out there have been heaps of Whales, really cool as they have passed by within 50 mtrs a couple of times. Took the kids out a couple of weeks ago and spotted a few pods. Good stuff!!
Here's a couple of pics.

As 2rods said Scotty, it's great to hear from you again. I was wondering what became of you and family just the other day.
Enjoy the different fishing - Moreton Bay can be a lot of fun. And you can swim safely when it gets warmer.
I saw the latest spearfishing mag and those fellows show us that there are still MONSTER cobia in the bay, among other things. I don't know if spearing such big fish is good for the ecosystem, but who knows.
Keep in touch - things are a bit quiet on the forum of late because it has been especially cold and windy this year, but I have a feeling that this buildup is going to be huge on FFF, and we will need some Moreton Bay news to break up the barra monotony.

2Rods, trailer is Good! came to Brisvegas on the back of a truck but is holding up well.
Matt, Family is good, not liking the cold though. Barra monotony... is there such a thing???? I'll keep you posted but I have had many a fruitless session in this lovely Bay, although all reports suggest there are fish about
Geez, hasn't this site changed!!! well done on the progression over the last few months, good to see a growing FFF fraternity.
