Piss'n'Broke Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) Hey Just thought Id put a brief report of Gregs sat effort up! He started squidding verrryyyy early friday night/sat morning. Wasnt long before he had ample and hooked up with a few other raiders that were having trouble with the squiddies Wasnt long before he had these guys stocked up with a few prime kingy baits! First stop main harbour at 6am, NUTTING,,,,, back into MH where he nailed a rat of 63cm on a whole squid! .. After that zip! This will be the last trip out for myself and Greg for abit as he was BADLY smashed into from behind whilst stopping at some lights! Motor is a right off but at least Greg is Ok with just a few sore back muscles DAN D&G Edited October 21, 2007 by Dan and Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look on the bright side, those fish will be a whole lot bigger to challenge you when you get back out there. regards TWIN 1 Marcel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Big-Banana Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 You guys weren't the only ones, some idiot reversed into my car while parked at Tunks sometime today, really topped off a tough day as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrwooley Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 G'day guys, Sorry to hear of your damage, but at least, as everyone else has said, no one got injuried. I have had the same thing nearly happen to me ... so many times, that I'm in the process of making two removable brake/taillights to mount high on the stern of my boat. I do think that boat trailer lights are too low and not too easy to see, although there are many drivers that do'nt drive that well either. Good luck and hope to see you back on the water soon.

gretsch Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 That sucks boys.. If I have a spare seat, you will get the call. Hope all turns out ok. Maybe you could paint 250hp on the side of the motor and get an upgrade from the insurers !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Dan Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 D&G Glad your okay Greg. Hope you get something sorted before you boys head away.
