Dodgyone told me last night he is heading over there this weekend and i was certainly contemplating it - might end up being almost a forum get together??

Correct me if I'm wrong but the way I read that chart is that strongish Easterly winds are going to keep blowing until about Monday when the low moves further accross.

I hope I'm wrong. I wanna get amoungst it this week end.

The way I read that chart is fairly windy, but it usually drops off for long enough for a fish when you are staying at Bare Sandy

Mudskipper was 90% right. got to move around the coast in very smooth water until 10am then the SE blew in and luckily it was happy hour at the bar anyway. went out again at 2pm for an hour then the breeze swung NNE. Sun was nice until 11 then SE most of the day. left bynoe for the dash accross Charles Point back to Fannie Bay and only got a bit smashed up unlike the usual total bashing.

Boat show for me this weekend, hopefully convince the better half on what boat to replace the old punt with. :twisted:

Fishing is not a matter of life and death, it is far more serious than that.

Muddy, your my new weather consultant/guru. :mrgreen:

Mind you I'll always say it's raining fish...yahooo lets go out in 25knots!! I havnt grown up from my days as an extreme snowboarder.

I'm like that guy who lost his legs in vietnam(yes I'm short too) off the Forest Gump movie. he's at the top of the prawn trawler rigging shouting at god "it's that all you got?" in 50knots.

Harmsey, how about I sample some of your rum and we'll have a 'King of the Creek' dingy race accross the harbor? 8-)
