Hi. I'm taking the wife and kids down to Batemans Bay for a week starting New Years eve. Nagging depending I want to try to get out for a fish on one of the local charters. Has anyone had any experiance with any of the charter boats in the area?. Danny

Well done mate. Great to see a day on the water pay off so well

Hey has anyone been having any luck with the crabs up the Hawkesbury. Was thinking about setting a few hats on Sunday. Certainly there is stuff all else happening on the water

"a frequent fisherman (average person) not pro's goes fishing once/twice a week" Wow between my and kids scoccer etc I'm lucky to go out once every 4-6 weeks. My better half??? seems to think that an average person(me) should consider himself lucky if he gets on the water more than 6 or 7 times a year. Admitedly its a bit easier to give it a miss when it is frezzing cold and the fishing is so lousy its hard to even catch sweep at Long Reef. Come to think of it there are always always heaps of sweep at Long Reef. Also I usually go out with Reckless. This means full wet weather gear, even when the only ripples on the water are from the sweep attacking the burley bucket.

Hey qw77. Great to see someone catching fish out there at the moment. Hopefully you have the nerve to post photos of your next outing. KenA and Iain. Totally agree with your comments. No one likes being jumped on by the fishing Nazi's. Suppose that the reason I am generally a reader and not a writer. Tight Lines everyone.

Hi Si, Great reading report as usual. Glad to be able to help collect the boys burley on Saturday. Shame we had to cut the "bait collecting" trip short, but after a big lunch on Friday if we had not called it quits when we did I would have been creating burley. I'm old enough to know better about boozing the day before fishing. Was looking forward to some Mako and chips as well. Danny

Yeah the day worked out OK. Best thing Rex did not get seasick, bored, spiked or pick up any unwanted body Piercing Also smoked mackrel sangas for the rest of the week. Danny
