North Australian FISH FINDER TM forums

G'day All ,
Just joined the Forum a few days ago ,thought I would say hi and tell a bit about myself .
First off ,I live in Katherine and have been here since 1989 , previous to that I lived and worked in Jabiru .
Its been a long time since I've wet a line due to work commitments and other things that chew away at your time.
I have decided to get some fishing done ,and have just bought a bigger boat (4.1 mtr Sracer DLX topender )than my original craft ( 12ft no name tinnie).
The last few months I have been doing improvements and mods to the boat to make it more in line with my idea of a user friendly kit.

My Son lives in Darwin and I will be picking him up and we are heading either to Saltwater Arm or Corroboree depends ,I haven't done much fishing in the Darwin area at all ( two trips to the Perons on a charter 20 odd years ago) , so I'm not sure where to go . .Most of my fishing was done in Kakadu , which I know very well , but due to my Sons' limited time off would prefer some where closer for him.

Most recent trip was in May to Crab claw Island for three days with some friends from Victoria and my Missus , we had a great time , I had only picked up the boat the day before we drove up so , I had to learn it's habits etc . I borrowed some crab pots and caught a few muddies , which went down very nicely . Crab Claw is a nice location and I will be going back some time in the future also checked out Sand Palms on the way home so may look at hitting that location some time.

Well that's about all I can think of for now.
