It's going to blow like hell off Darwin this week, 20/30 knots by Wednesday, check the BOM barometric maps.

Time to get one of these ... we already bought one from Extreme Hobbies in Coconut Grove. Bit of fun for the family, and you could probably hang a gar under a kite too and fly it off East Point, just like they do with helium balloons :catch:

Hi Matt,

Here is a web site I was looking at last week...

I don't think I will do it, but fun to see.

Have a good day,
Pecheur

Well, to be honest I was thinking about it...
Then it hit me...
:bricks:

Early morning before day rise, and Pecheur alone on his push bike, with all of his un-necessary but usual stuff... Plus a second rod with a very big spool of line, and the kite and all these stuff...
:bonk:

Too heavy before breakfast...

Would look good in a movie, but not from my pushbike seat...
:lol:

I prefer to try to keep it simple with the chrome slices...

Have a good day,
Pecheur

Well after spending Friday/Saturday bashing around out the front of Bynoe - the answer clearly was NO :bricks:

One thing I can attest to, is that the Fish Reef BOM instruments appear to be recording accurate data :surf:

Well Matt you were spot on . Great weather for camping but no so good for boating . Ended up biting the bullet and headed to Bynoe . Didnt even bother trying to fish in the boat , used it once to check a crab pot i set and couldnt reach once the tide was up , got 2 good bucks in it by the way :grin:

The other 2 other pots were put in of the bank and from the 3 pots in total we put in ended up getting 8 big full bucks in two pulls , spose i cant complain :wink:

Ive had a hell of a lot worse weekends :mrgreen:
