Well the fishing down there is top notch. Whether it be catching calamari squid from the wharf or snapper out in the blue. We fished 2 days with Fuzzels Fishing and that bloke really knows his poop and it's well worth the money. Julie caught the biggest at 90cm. Something that is becoming all too familiar. I think I have taught her too well 8) And plenty of King George whiting

And I couldn't give a big enough thanks to Colin at Reidys who express posted a heap of sea bugs down for me to use. Let me tell you that these things rock. They were being hit on the drop by 40-55cm fish that were sitting higher in the water. They rarely got to the bottom at all. Pulled the hooks on a stonker but that's fishing. I can't wait to use these up here in the NT 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Heaps of water over the road between Katherine and Alice but it's all shallow. Deepest was about 30cm.Someone ripped off their rear bumper at that one :applause:

Crikey, a post like that you'd think would get more replies.

Think you might be pissing the northern mob off Lats :)
