Ken A Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Ok everyone what's the plans for this coming weekend? Wetting a line or busy with other things ? I won't be fishing. The passage is flooded out from all the rain & if it was any dirtier you could plow it. Be a week before it's any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damariboyz Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 I hope to get out early on Saturday for a around the wharfs of Walsh Bay. I think the rain that will keep you at home this weekend Ken, may have just arrived in Syd. It's been raining here all night, very welcome though. The wharfs have shelter so only the will prevent me and the boy's from gettin out. Is it still rainin up there and what other options are available to you if you get that uncontrollable urge.

Captain Pugwash Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Sitting here on Queenscliff headland with the house about to get blown over I wouldn't be going out there today. 7 metre seas! The Black Pig has been in dry dock at Bobbin Head and is now ready to be picked up. But there is NO way on God's earth I am bringing it back to Sydney harbour in this weather! And I am off to sunny Brisvegas for the weekend to watch the Wallabies give it to the Frenchmen! This will be three weeks in a row without fishing. Lets just hope the seas are calmer next weekend!

Ken A Posted June 29, 2005 Author Share Posted June 29, 2005 Is it still rainin up there and what other 1fishing1.gif options are available to you if you get that uncontrollable urge. Its pouring rain here still & is supposed to be raining the rest of the day. With the rain we have had in the last 48 hours & gale force winds the only option left for me is watching DVD's or maybe stripping & cleaning my bream spinning gear for the 2nd time in 2 days I'm bored ! Welcome to Queensland - beautiful one day perfect the next! Thursday until midnight: NE winds 20/30 knots, reaching 30/40 knots south of Cape Moreton, chiefly in offshore waters. Winds gradually easing from the north during the day. Seas to 4 metres but gradually abating. Rain areas and isolated thunderstorms gradually easing.

Weasel Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 After a big win last week the Scone Brumbies are looking the goods but this weekend is the local darby with arch rivals Muswellbrook. There is no love lost between the two clubs so it will a tuogh match. But it should be a great game of rugby. GO BRUMBIES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 The weather is looking pretty average for the weekend. All going well I might get out for a flick on Saturday arvo. If this rain keeps up it might be an at home weekend. I have got a couple of rods that need building and a new sounder to be installed so it wont be a complete waste. Have a good one all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

granpop Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Packing to depart on our trip north on Sunday - winds & rain and flood warnings wherever I planned to stay and fish. I hope the Claence clears for next week or else I will be forced to hit the beach and see if any jewies are hanging out waiting for the brown water to dissipate. Ken - you need to get out and clean up the passage ready for when I arrive!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Pugwash Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 GDay Captain, What was the end result with the transducer. Russ 55615[/snapback] G'Day Russ, the end result was that I decided on a Lowrance x107cdf but they didn't bloody have one in the country. I have ordered one but I still can't find out whether I should go for the "shoot thru the hull" option. I have confirmed that the only place it could go is in one of the engine bays and I don't know if that is a good option. Someone has suggested that there is a bracket you can buy to mount on the back of your boat that allows you to retract the sounder from the water when it's not in use. I might check this out as it might solve my problem. Cheers Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troutboy Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 I have had a job lined up to do for a bloke that has been shelved for the last three weeks due to favourable fishing conditions and have now run out of time , so rain hail or shine its work for me on saturday at least. Will be fishing sunday at W entworth falls lake if the weather is not too bad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehor Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 My car is still at the panel beaters so I'm immobile but I'll be helping a mate change coolant on his car. Otherwise another weekend sitting at home waiting for my car to be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombora Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 (edited) Hiya guys, Driving to work today every waterway I crossed was brown as a cup of coffee. Goon was high and dirty, Middle Harbour at Spit was chocolate milkshake, even crossing the coat hanger you could se the colour in the water. On the coast there's 6-8ft of pumping North groundswell and water is filthy at DY beach from run off. Jewie anyone? Hey Ken, a dirty back passage is not nice hope it cleans up soon. Was looking at aerial pics of GC here at work and my there's a fair bit of water on the gound..... Cheers Bombie Edited July 1, 2005 by bombora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooky. Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Not doin' much. Tomorrow is vacant for a "just in case" situation. Sunday I'll probably go for a drive to Penrith and surrounds, have a feed, drop in at ABA and spend some more cash. Other than that it's a pretty quiet weekend. No pub on Saturday either due to this darn head cold I have , mind you, it won't stop me from fishing in the 'arvo if I feel the need to get out of the house. Have a good one Raiders. cheers Hooky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
