2009 State Of Origin Wrap Up

[Brian D]

Booty, the only way I could fish for Qld is if we made it SoC, (State of Choice), and then I would struggle to jump the fence.

Congrates again mooky, that was one big flatty.

Captain Shortie. You know its a good comp flathead wise when shortie's 60cm flatty was 9th on the score board!

Thanks for the ride in the boat mate!

[Do$tylz]

Great catches of fish, great stories, awesome pics.

Bloody oath mate. Considering that a large gum tree also crushed 2 camp sites in the middle of the night that would have had BDO people in them! This only emphasised the importance of making those calls.

Great weekend, I had a ball ! Seeing Mal break dancing was one of the many highlights for me. The effects from the content of a certain large bottle was also the source of great amusement. Big cheers to everyone involved :kiss: :laugh:

Angus, can you check with the BCC to see if we could all camp at Colmslie for the BRC this year :laugh:

Congrats to the prize winners and of course The Blues for outfishing us. Maybe a few more of we Queenslanders can cut down on the socialising next time......well, maybe not.

Here's a few poor quality pics from the phone.

Well what a great week-end we had, Fishing, Drinking ,catching up with some old friends and meeting some new ones. OH and more fishing.

Congratulations to the winners from both teams and also to the organisers for arranging the comp.

We arrived on Thursday all set to put the boat in for a pre fish, but decided to be social with Ray and Brian in unit 1. Over the week-end we caught a great many bream & flatties but none worth a pic. Glenda caught 1 good flattie over the time, but not up to the point’s standard. Donated a few lures to the Snag Gods and alot of plastics to the tailor.

All in all a top week-end was had and will be back for another crack at beating the BLUES.

Special thanks to Travis & Chilli D for donating a feed to our esky.
