LEELEE Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 (edited) Hi all, Just to let you all know that I will be moving from the Sydney area up the the beautiful area of Port Stephens to live Will be moving within 12 months and as you might have guessed, I can't wait The only problem is that I will have to work in Newcastle, but thats a small price to pay for living in such a great area. I know this will put a smile on the face of some guys and yes you guys will always be welcome to come up and stay and of course do some fishing.

Pt Stephens would be my pick as well - we may end up as neighbours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Leelee, what sort of work do you do? The company I am with has a number of people moving to Newcastle to undertake 2 new projects we have up that way. Thought there may be a connection via work.

knapers Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Martin, what sort of projects are you talking, is it construction by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightweight Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 The only problem is that I will have to work in Newcastle, I have done that for 10 years? Beats the rush hour traffic you already face in Sydney. I think you will see it as a bonus, not a problem. The only difference is that you will not be able to earn the same amount (for the same job) in Newcs as you do in Sydney, but on the positive side, the cost of living is MUCH lower up here.

LEELEE Posted September 22, 2005 Author Share Posted September 22, 2005 Sweet news mate!! 68385[/snapback] I though both you and Swoff would enjoy the news. Should be able to get some small blacks from my boat when the season is on and depending on where the FAD is, dollies on bream gear Should be able to get out for a fish more often up there and you are always welcome aboard.

LEELEE Posted September 23, 2005 Author Share Posted September 23, 2005 how do dollies taste....? 68481[/snapback] They are one of the top 5 table fish. Cheers lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bashir Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 dollies are good eating but turn to mush once they are frozen. The bigger ones are nicer too. A happy moment is also known as a black trevally, their fins have sharp spines on them and they give you a nasty spiking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooch Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 (edited) I trust you're aware of the proposed Manning Shelf MPA? You might want to get involved with the campaign against it once you're up there. This is probably a good place to start. http://s8.invisionfree.com/Sportfish_Extre...hp?showforum=32 Edited September 23, 2005 by Hooch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
