jabsy « Mon Jul 24, 2017 9:21 pm » Rumluck try arnos, i reckon i paid about 90 for my 14" light trucks for the boat.

goldfish « Mon Jul 24, 2017 1:40 pm » Turn google maps on and the location on yr phone on too then go for a bit of an explore. BTW the track to the northern beach is behind a large locked gate and a bit over a 1km walk..

Matt Flynn « Sun Jul 23, 2017 10:42 pm » best spots are a bit of a walk

breamtim « Sun Jul 23, 2017 10:21 pm » Tried to access a few spots at channel island, only fished next to the boat ramp as it looked like a bit of bush bashing was required

Matt Flynn « Sun Jul 23, 2017 10:11 pm » Keep at it breamtim, Channel Island can be great for barra, also out at Gunn Point. Also the rocks at Dundee Beach. Calm morning high tides.

breamtim « Sun Jul 23, 2017 10:06 pm » anyone got a decent land based barra spot thats fishing well at the moment? Ive fished channel island, Katherine, east point, corroboree and Durack lakes for only a few hits and follows

jonr « Sun Jul 23, 2017 1:16 pm » Nightcliff Tryer and auto had cheapest last time I got one about 90?

rumluck « Sun Jul 23, 2017 10:59 am » Cheapest place to get a trailer tyre? 165/r13c is the tyre in question. Been quoted $110 for a tyre at westlake and berrimah. Can get a rim and tyre delivered for $90 off fleabay...

Matt Flynn « Sat Jul 22, 2017 12:14 am » learn something new every day :mrgreen:

nomad « Thu Jul 20, 2017 7:55 pm » Matt Flynn is that you? https://www.facebook.com/abchobart/phot ... =3&theater

Dyksy « Thu Jul 20, 2017 10:06 am » @nomad that is about all im good at too but I'll give it a look anyway

Nick.P « Thu Jul 20, 2017 9:09 am » Any chance someone could recommend a good charter in Broome or anywhere down the coast? Or even better, be in need of 2 deckies for their next trip? Cheers

nomad « Wed Jul 19, 2017 6:04 pm » Dyksy - went out there yesterday - I took some lovely photos.

Edo « Wed Jul 19, 2017 4:37 pm » @Dyksy, a mate of mine was there last thursday and got a few toga and a few barra, no big number but a good morning out

Dyksy « Wed Jul 19, 2017 1:07 pm » Any news on Corroboree? much action? Looking at a pre dawn launch on saturday

cnd1963 « Wed Jul 19, 2017 1:00 pm » thanks fff1964 I shudda said auto aircon

Edo « Wed Jul 19, 2017 11:19 am » is the shady barrage still accesible with the new ramp construction going on?

Edo « Wed Jul 19, 2017 11:11 am » @Barney- i just download off the phone onto a computer file and drag them up from there when i need them mate

Edo « Wed Jul 19, 2017 11:08 am » whats the tide difference between darwin and shady barrage? , is it 5 hours in front or behind?

getoutnow « Wed Jul 19, 2017 11:00 am » Thanks for the info

Matt Flynn « Wed Jul 19, 2017 10:43 am » says 6 knots now, should be good ... tomorrow a bit windier ... can't go wrong if you stay in close ... depends on your boat size too

getoutnow « Wed Jul 19, 2017 10:36 am » how about the currrent weather conditions and tomorrow

Matt Flynn « Wed Jul 19, 2017 10:33 am » pretty choppy, especially on bigger tide

nomad « Wed Jul 19, 2017 10:08 am » Marro, I tied up to Dinah Bch pontoon on the weekend and had to string my lines across to the other side. I saw Ken Vowles there and told him to have a look at the state it was in. He wasnt happy but i know its not his portfolio but maybe he could have a quiet word in the relevant dept ear

BarneyRubble « Wed Jul 19, 2017 9:09 am » what program does everyone use to upload pictures now that photobucket are charging?

Marro « Wed Jul 19, 2017 8:07 am » Re Dinah beach pontoon. Dept of Infrustructure advised that they are waiting on parts however the timeframe for their arrival and then repairs to be made is unknown. So it seems its just a case of wait and see.

fff1964 « Wed Jul 19, 2017 6:27 am » Jake at northern and remote air con 0429493787 house air cons

cnd1963 « Tue Jul 18, 2017 9:48 pm » help needed reasonable aircon repairs, thanks

nomad « Mon Jul 17, 2017 6:42 pm » yep, save this site for details http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/det ... TENA_CLYDE

barrabustin « Mon Jul 17, 2017 5:08 pm » Is the Clyde drill rig still out there.

sharkbait « Mon Jul 17, 2017 10:10 am » Does anyone know the lowest tide you can safely lauch and retrieve at Dundee now with the new ramp? Without worrying about getting bogged..

goldfish « Mon Jul 17, 2017 10:08 am » Fishcatcher101. The left side as you look at the beach from the lodge : has plenty of accessible areas try on the incoming tide around the bigger ledges or on the upper part of the creeks as they get the first drop of the tide outgoing. all of the bait that seek refuge in them will be leaving the flats then getting nervous in the creek, any spot with a creek or decent rocks in a metre or 2 of water like that found around the stingray head area are prime areas but finniss river mouth area is the pick of them all by a mile...... you will be driving on the beach below the tide levels for a long way to get out here so prepare for bogging and carry an air compressor and recovery gear, also time the trip so as to be getting back before the creek starts to fill up as you exit the last beach or you'll be stuck out there for another tide cycle....which is not too bad unless you've run out of drinks

there are multiple different ways to get there just turn the hema or google maps on and go for an explore and look around....

Matt Flynn « Sun Jul 16, 2017 4:52 pm » Some great spots to the north if you don't mind a long walk, small rocky outcrops and a creek. The best rocks to the south are near the ramp, fish high tide in the morning when calm for big barra, queenfish

Matt Flynn « Sun Jul 16, 2017 4:50 pm » You mean south of the boat ramp, landbased?

Fishcatcher101 « Sun Jul 16, 2017 12:03 pm » What are good spots to fish at Dundee beach??, prefferebly on the left side??

Marro « Fri Jul 14, 2017 8:06 pm » I spoke with a lady at AFANT this afternoon who suggested/requested I send an e-mail to both them and Dept of Infrastructure. That's easy enough so will do so tomorrow.

nomad « Fri Jul 14, 2017 6:06 pm » Dont need to Tristan. I sent an email and left a message with the person responsible. be interesting to see how long they take to repair it. Surely they have a maintenance program?

tristan.sloan « Fri Jul 14, 2017 5:34 pm » thats true Nomad, Marro call me at work on Monday. Im happy to help 8936 5680

kingsley_z « Fri Jul 14, 2017 2:38 pm » Anyone know if you can drive to the rocks just north of Dundee ramp? Or is it restricted access?

nomad « Fri Jul 14, 2017 2:26 pm » PS Tristan, with your contacts you could have made one call and it would have more pull than us plebs

nomad « Fri Jul 14, 2017 2:24 pm » We all know that the only way to get any action is to advise of the problem in writing. Takes a few minutes more but, unlike a phone call, they have to act because you have a record, no record of phone calls. FYI - it’s the dept of infrastructure Marine safety branch. Anytime you have a problem with any govt dept, call the NT Govt switch and they will put you thru to the correct dept quickly.

jeffish « Fri Jul 14, 2017 1:08 pm » yeah I reported it 2 months ago !!!! Still no action .

tristan.sloan « Fri Jul 14, 2017 11:49 am » Department of Transport takes care of that Marro

Jer « Fri Jul 14, 2017 11:08 am » @Marro, give AFANT a call and ask them to contact the relevant authority. Surely a state of disrepair presents a health and safety risk to the public.

Marro « Fri Jul 14, 2017 11:07 am » What I meant to say was when the tide is low there is only a couple of cleats left to tie your boat off. Who is responsible for maintaining the pontoon?

Marro « Fri Jul 14, 2017 11:05 am » The Dinah beach boat ramp pontoon is in a state of disrepair. there is only a couple cleats left to tie your boat off.

fff1964 « Fri Jul 14, 2017 8:34 am » i say it every yer but NEXT YEAR

nomad « Thu Jul 13, 2017 6:04 pm » Time for Laurie to go

nomad « Thu Jul 13, 2017 2:31 pm » Qld had it won in the first 8 minutes. NSW kept making mistakes.

goldfish « Thu Jul 13, 2017 1:11 pm » Slayed em again ...GO QLD

Melv « Thu Jul 13, 2017 1:02 pm » Can't argue there Edo, they are a class above. Would be easier to take if the Blues at least had a crack but they just didn't turn up. Outsmarted, outmuscled and outplayed all night. AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!

Edo « Thu Jul 13, 2017 7:29 am » How bout those MIGHTY QLDERS!!...........too much ticker!!

Chris m « Wed Jul 12, 2017 7:35 am » Definitely 11pm to 4am, launched st 0430 on Sunday.

Quinntreximon « Wed Jul 12, 2017 1:49 am » I'm pretty sure it's 11pm to 6am.

goldfish « Tue Jul 11, 2017 9:59 pm » Yep its locked. unsure exactly when it opens 10pm - 6am ??? possibly.... It's on the sign at the gate

BigBlue « Tue Jul 11, 2017 9:47 pm » Anyone know if their still locking Nightcliff ramp car park. If so what time it opens

Lats « Sun Jul 09, 2017 6:30 pm » 3--1-0 today. It was very quiet

Nogood « Sun Jul 09, 2017 12:28 am » Funny that we are having one of the billfish season and no one gives a rats.

theodosius « Thu Jul 06, 2017 9:05 pm » 4 mile is open

Lats « Wed Jul 05, 2017 8:33 pm » That's good Jjones. I'm leaving the ramp around 0230

Brinno « Wed Jul 05, 2017 6:52 pm » Can anyone recommend a good 1/2 day or day charter? Cheers

Jjones123 « Wed Jul 05, 2017 4:38 pm » Deckie found.

Jjones123 « Wed Jul 05, 2017 8:45 am » Looking for a deckie for blue water fish tomorrow. Leaving Dinah ramp at 5am
