Hi Ray

Sounds Like an awesome trip!!!!

I am heading up to do the same houseboat trip in weipa in a couple of weeks!(first Time)

I was wondering if there were any particular Do's or Dont's you might be able to offer in regards to the whole trip!

E.g.

Gear?

navigation requirements?

Houseboat Facilities? tenders!!!!

travelling?

Experience in these type of trips would be invaluable, any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks

[Slippery Salmon]

Went for a spin session on a local beach yesterday. Hooked 6-7 salmon in the half hour I was there but the hooks pulled every time . Two fish took me right down the beach before spitting the hooks. Very frustrating but at least I know the drag system works well. Got home and inspected the hooks on the little chrome slice - not blunt??? What's going on?? Anyone got any tips for staying connected to these guys? Use single hooks or smaller trebles or sharpen the existing ones to needles? I tried not setting the hook at all to just belting them nothing worked. Any suggestions?

I came across a large school busting up on some bait out off bondi on sat, we threw out some metal raiders and clean up. Probably caught 10 and lost just as many, their aerial jumps often resulted in the lure flying back in the direction of the boat. Tough fighters! Good fun.

I went out on Tuesday. We cubed all day out at browns. We did not even turn a reel. Long day!!!!!!!!

Dido That on Wednesday at the Canyons, long cold and wet day!!!!
