I was looking forward to the trip but it's all good. Many thanks for trying to organise this Scratchie, postponing it will make the final result even better. J

The river is open at Mogareeka now which means the river will be getting a good flushing, hopefully Wapengo, Pambula and Merimbula will be as well. Its been a few years since this has happened so looking forward to some good fishing in the future. J

Pictures of the Bega River and the road into Bega. Good rains though! J

Great lot of photos Jon. Looks like it was a really good day out there. J

Only if you were at the Soldiers club 13th to 18th July but then they had a bowler visit that went to Club Malua and Narooma Bowlers. Not lockdown but people are in isolation, no reported new cases. Tomakin is a nice place to fish, mainly flathead in the shallows and there is a boat ramp there to launch your kayak from. J

Great way to spend a morning. Blow away the cobwebs and make you realize there is more to life than a pandemic for a while. J

Lived at Kurnell for many years. If you dig down about 6 feet you hit water and the entire soil is loamy and has a lot of shell in it. When you look at the national park and up Polo Street and all the way out to the Lighthouse, it is all a lot higher than the surrounding area and clay/shale/sandstone type soils. Kurnell township is flat. A long time ago you would have to say that the National park and all the land to the south around Boat Harbour was an island with the Georges River emptying at the existing bay entrance and a delta area from Quibray Bay to the ocean where the sandhills are or at least were. J

Always did well along the eastern shoreline of Cruwee Cove. Look for the large white boulders in the water surrounded by weed. As already said, change lure sizes and colours...squid are a visual hunter. J

This would be a great get away. Count me in as well. Might have to find a deckie.\ J

As far as I know, the distance rules apply to people you are not isolated with. My daughter and I took the kayaks out the other day on Wapengo Lake. Spotted a lot of flathead on the flats and it was a great day out on the water, we saw one other boat the entire day. It was the first time we had gone off the property in nearly 6 weeks. As we were packing up another family group arrived at the ramp taking out a large canoe. The ramp is tiny....very tiny, more like a beach launch. The police were also on hand and remarked how well the fishos managed the area around themselves. They had been out making sure people were not camping up near the inlet. J Sorry The Skipper, Thanks for the report.

Done

What model printer did you use? J

Thanks Mrs S Great doco and I recognized a lot of spots from down this end of the world. I haven't gone blackfishing in a long time and the doco reminds me of fishing the rocks around Kurnell when I was a kid. I learned a lot from the old guys that used to teach us but if you didnt have cleats or the right gear or didnt take your turn on the drifts correctly, you simply were not allowed to fish with them and basically kicked of the rocks. Great times and great memories of people long gone. Time to drag out the old rods and give them a whirl again. J

The fact he caught a dhufish and Sambo tends to make me think he is in WA. J

Hey BN, Life is good down here. I am actually enjoying isolation. Fishing is good with plenty of places to go and throw in a line. J

Useless, my phone rang in the middle of the quiz! Doesnt ring all day.......then...... J

Same here. I guess getting the trailer inspection done is going to be difficult at the moment. J

Have caught Poddy Mullet on Sabiki rigs. Dont use any weights on the rig, put bread in the water and wait for the poddies to get stuck in, the bread floats along. Lay the rig out next to the bread and the poddies usually grab it by mistake...but it still works. J

I used to get squid in Cruwee Cove, mainly by boat but used to see quite a few guys fishing from the shore. I think they used to walk there via the golf course. J

Mid January I wouldnt have gone in there, there were fires everywhere. I think they were using Brogo as a source for the water bombers. What you cant see in that bottom photo is the hills in the background are all burnt all the way back to Bemboka. It will be interesting to see how the fishing goes...lots more water between the fish. J

Took this the other day of the Brogo Dam. The top pic in Dec was just after the Brogo Bass Bash. Brogo is a bass stocked dam, the comp is a catch and release. Just to show you how much rain fell down this way.

The current fairly rips in and out of the Inlet and across that bar. I have never gone across it, but fish the inlet and lakes with both boat and kayak. I was up there on Tuesday as well but later in the morning, saw the Marine Rescue and helicopters. J
