Good on ya Bigtez.

For any AFO non boaters, its worth throwing it out there if there are any seats available. I know a lot of offers are usually just waiting in the wings and a lot of good friendships have been formed over just that eventuality.

Numbers are looking good guys there will be a really good social!

Just heard back from my mate and he is out. So the decky spot is all yours bmx.

Henry, if you like you can jump on board as well. Should be able to fish the flats ok with 3 of us.

Thanks a heap, can't wait

[Do$tylz]

oh mate I'd love to but i think fishing 3 on your boat would just restrict the awesomeness of fishing with just 2. The freeness of 1 on each end casting as you please ... awesome.

I'm happy to stay on my yak for the morning

[straddiebrad]

may join u guys on this ,might stay at torbul caravan park in the little homes the have on site head up on the friday and fish the week end.brad

[burger93]

i think the same too.

make a weekend of it .already there so u can start having a fish later .with out the bother of travel and get up early.

its the fuel cost side of it too .

kayak social i though it would cost 100 to 110$ fuel and about 270 km ,2 1/2 hrs each way .

the cruiser ran good end up costing 80 $ fuel.but the trip home took about 4 hrs .dam traffic .

so since it cost that much in fuel i always think about camping for a few days .

[Feral]

Fair trip from Toorbul, van park at Bongaree is a lot closer.

yer i know but we realy enjoyed the place and the little pub is only a half a stubbie walk :laugh:

[Davo_Dinkum]

sounds nice .

will have to check it out 1 day .

i'm think bongaree or one of the national park camps .

depends how booked things are etc.

[Angus]

To a clarification as I have had a few PM's:

There is no pre event registration!

So you can start fishing as early in the morning as you want. Just be at the BBQ

I will be making a post about a hand signal to be used in the photo's in place of a "unique item" to keep the field honest. This hand signal will be disclosed the evening before the event.

Angus

[bootyinblue]

I am in for this one..... FInally got the 'nod'.

Gus - Love the idea of the hand signal, as I have discussed this idea before with a few people for fish of the month entries too.

Will register tonight for it.

[webbfunk]

Sounds good, never actually fished Bribie.

What's the ramp like at Bribie?

Nice and easy to launch and retreive?

[James W]

all the ramps on the island are pretty good..the ramp at spinnaker sound marina is good to, gets busy as the day goes on.

[Eug]

cool the lady and i should be able to make this one... any ideas for a cabin over night stay?

One hand on the camera, one holding the fish, use the other hand for the signal. :S Mate I'm not from Ipswich

[Travis]

maybe a word to be written on some paper instead of a hand signal, things could get tricky for those fishing solo

[Davo_Dinkum]

mite have to use your tackle as a unique item in the pic.

but that could be dangerous as flathead like the worms and slugs .

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
