JDP Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Only did a quick dog walk on the beach and took a rod for a couple of salmon to make fish bake. I have a big trip coming up though next week, 4300km up the coast and 90km offshore to an island where I will fish for 10-12 days.

I pressed thee agree button, not because I agree, but because it is the colour of envy! Good luck with your trip, and looking forward to the pics.

Malc Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Stuff the fishing we had a great day. Swimming pool in the morning, snacks afterwards, snooze for the little tyke and another cuppa for grandad, lunch then meeting friends and finally an hour at the beach throwing stones in the water, saying hi to the dogs, paddling, running, drawing in the sand with sticks, fingers and ice cream afterwards. If I went fishing I'd be asleep by now and waking up tomorrow aching all over. It's the little things.

We do it 3 days per week, but it at least allows me to go fishing in the morning and pick up the tiddler at 3:00pm, but parking the jeep and the RIB at the school sometimes presents a challenge.

GPSguru Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 The boat is loaded, ready for a 7:00am launch. If the weather and sea forecasts hold overnight, then it looks like a trip to the Skerries 👍 Dicky, Andy135 and JonC 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a great forecast so I’ll just stay in the river, the water temperature is still up so there may be some bass about still. I’ve got some bacon and there’s a couple of pot noodles onboard. I just hope I don’t get a last minute text uninviting me in the night. Stand by... just texting you now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 I'm out early tomorrow with Leo. He's got somebody tagging along as a care in the community case. Should be a fun day, and at least my windows will be nice and clean afterwards. JDP, suzook12, Geoff and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDP Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Yes, will be heading out this weekend. Floods have meant my trip up north from the bottom of the country to the top end has now needed to be re-routed adding an extra 1000km to the trip but its still going ahead. It will be 8 days of towing (4 each way) the boat and 12 days of remote island fishing. I was going to take some shark gear but have since decided to pull that gear from the tackle being taken as sharks up there can be a total pest but Im sure plenty will find us. My daughter just returned having been in the same area for the past month, where her best day was over 100 barramundi in one day between two of them. The reef fishing was also next level. Many of my trips have been with very windy weather up that way, so hoping this time will be better. At least the daily average of 33'c will defrost me after this cold winter we've had. Only wish JonC was coming with me but we can all dream I suppose. Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
