[Woodlaz]

G'day Ian,

The plan is to get down there early/mid morning saturday (hopefully by about 8am)

OK, I got myself +3 coming. 2 of them would like to have a bunk (if possible).

The other 2 of us will sleep outside under the stars if weather permits. Otherwise we will pitch a small tent or sleep in the boat.

3 of us are brothers and the other is my mums boyfreind of 7+ years. We all love fishing and socialising.

We all have our own fishin gear/bait, sleeping gear, food, beer +, mozzie coils/insect repellant.

Is there anything else we should bring?

With firewood, can we collect while down there or do we have to bring some?

Cheers

Glenn

[Bommie]

a few litres of diesel usually helps mate.

I usually bring a heap of firewood so that should be covered.

[Bommie]

For the gen. motor.

hey guys just waiting to hear back from hut secratery about the availability for weekend. i know there is someone there this week but for how long or if aready taken not sure. will get back to you all very soon ezy

for those who like a little history:

a freind of james's family recentley attended a gathering at the hut and apon her returning home and disscussing with family found out that her grand parents used to come to the hut back in the day. consiquently dug up this photo of the original hut back 1913 when it was used to graze cattle hence the name "the stockyards", even back before the pin was the pin, when it was a river system before the ocean broke thru to create passage jumpinpin.

[EZY]

ok all good hut is booked for the weekend however can't get in till after 2pm fri. i would require a lift out from rudy mass if poss so if we all meet at the ramp say 3pm we cam all set off together.?

current list is as of tues 7pm

ezy

woodlaz + 3

bommie +1?

motley and zac?

james?

list still may change this week, and mabey a few of the regular boys may come over during weekend

please confirm asap

you will only need fishing tackle/gear

sleeping bag/bedding

food

drinks and couple ltres drinking water / everything else from tanks

mossie coils and repelant

personal gear

we normally go thru 12 - 15 trs of fuel for gen depending on how long we use it so even a small can helps a lot

firewood if you have some bring along hardwood for the inside stove and anything for outside

[EZY]

could everyone get back to me asap so i can confirm booking, someone else is pushing for it otherwise. thanks ezy

[Woodlaz]

Definately myself & 3 others coming

Will grab a five litre tin of diesel maybe 2 if i can find the other.

Cheers

[benno573]

may be heading out at early o'clock for a day out on saturday. Will drop in and say hello if I do get out. can bring over a bag of firewood if you'd like, after a gum tree at the old lady's came down in a storm last year my supplies are currently quite solid. Just let me know.

The mrs has me booked in to cook a bbq for her mates on sunday lunch otherwise I'd be out there for the night for sure!

[EZY]

CANCELLED

[jnewy]

yep me rach and jeff and maybe more love your work man

sorry cant make it afterall

[Graham Itzstein]

Hi EZY,I'm a fisherman, retired, and my mate and I have been trying to find out who to contact about booking the huts etc.

We know nothing about what the arrangements are , so you would have to start from scratch. I see all communications are very old in here , and you may not even be involved at this much later date.

Finding someone with current knowledge of the huts is harder than finding out who killed Jimmy Hoffer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

[aussie123]

They are private huts and not available for the general public to use.

[Graham Itzstein]

I've heard that they were associated with some fishing club, and I'm trying to find out which club. My mate and I are retired and we're thinking about joining it.

Any help would be great.

Cheers

That turned out to be a dead end mate. He wasn't know as "EZY" anyway , and that was all I had to go with. Guess I'll just have to wait till I see someone down there at the huts one day, and go ashore and get some first hand information.

Cheers

Graham

[tugger]

These huts are not associated with any fishing clubs they are private lease held land 1 has been in the family for over a hundred years called the stock yards as the family ran cattle there back in the day

there are ones closer to russell island that i heard are just cant remember witch one or a rsl or bowls club

[Drop Bear]

There are so many houses available on Russell Island and other islands on Airbnb. 

That would be a good holiday and they seem pretty cheap. 

[Drop Bear]

Also Karragarra Island and Lamb and Coochiemudlo etc.

Hi Ezy we would love the opportunity to be able to book the cabins even on a regular basis can you please let me know how to go about this, as was out at Slipping sands recently very keen.  all I know is that note privately owned but you have ability and access to arrange can you please confirm ?
