Belligero Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Who is planning on heading out onto the water this weekend? The conditions look horrid with a 4m swell. Only early in the week however at the moment it doesn't look good. We have our last club comp on this weekend so need to make an effort! Inshore fishing this weekend I think! =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaClH2OK9 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Always the same. I skipped last weekend due to the storms forecast ( but not hitting till the evening) last weekend and thinking this weekend being my monthly club outing. Oh well. Next weekend it is then. Bad luck scratchie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fragmeister Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Yep... the Friday trip is off. I was looking forward to rectifying my poor performances of late and stocking the freezer with some vac packed kingfish! Looking a bit sad in the freezer department too... no "in possession" limits in danger there I can tell you! Better weather coming boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaClH2OK9 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I'm seeing mixed results from different apps and sites. Even if the offshore trip gets canceled I'm gonna hold out til later in the week for a solo hacking session. Elvis has not left the building yet.

Berleyguts Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I was hoping to take the boat out of Broken Bay tomorrow or Friday. (Finally got time - having just lost my job... ) Not even sure I want to chance it tomorrow, now. Getting fussy in my old age, I guess!

But I wouldn't be going out further than box head just in case the wind kicks up earlier. Will would uncomfortable today with the swell On the way to work now and the water looks so flat and peaceful over brisbane water. I doubt it will look like this on the way home.

Will would uncomfortable today with the swell On the way to work now and the water looks so flat and peaceful over brisbane water. I doubt it will look like this on the way home. Yeah, a few weeks ago I headed out of Sydney Heads, not expecting a change till around 2pm. I picked up a kingy off Manly about 11:00 and turned around to troll back and a 20 knot southerly hit - that was a wild old trip home! When you're an hour or so's drive home from the boat ramp, I tend not to fish those shorter sessions - too much trouble! (Fussy in my old age! ) Not so good on the job front... not too much of a drama I hope. Yeah, that was a bit of a shock... 2 weeks pay in lieu of notice, just before Christmas. Not happy. Hard to find a new job at 54! Still, things happen for a reason and it might be a good thing in the long run... if it comes to the pinch, we can always sell our Sydney home and bring forward our plan to move to Port Stephens by 5 or 6 years! The wife said I could sell the boat... yeah , right! Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fragmeister Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Hard to find a job at 54... ridiculous but true. Glad to hear there is a plan B in place. Cheers Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratchie Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Got out today in 40kph winds, couldn't hold anchor anywhere, managed 1 Flatty and 1 bream. Seen a club member pull a Jew in the spot we were trying to anchor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnmn8r Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Tomorrow is looking great with regards to wind and rainfall (or lack thereof). Swell still looks a bit high, but shouldn't be too much of an issue inside I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtBundy Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I was prepared to write the weekend off for fishing but Sunday was pretty nice. Got the mowing done and headed off in the arvo. The swell was a bit much on the beach so I headed for the harbour but everywhere was packed. Ended up at Cliftons (bring the chequebook for parking.. grr) but failed to get anything other than a undersize pinkie and some yakkas. Other guys were pulling in 30cm+ trevally though.

Rami Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Sound similar to my weekend. My mate fixed the boat and we went around Cowan creek for very small pinkies. Nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest no one Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Good to hear the weather was still bad Jeff! The mrs was staring at me Sunday morning while we looked outside to no wind and beautiful skies asking why we weren't in Port Stephens? I was preying for crap weather after we cancelled our weekend away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
