Thanks Donkey - saves me looking.

Aaron and I will be doing both. We'll get there pre dawn, have a fish at Harries then back to Wello for Breakie, then back out for some whiting.

Well that's a plan anyway - who knows what happens.

15knotts - yahooo can't wait.:sick: :angry:

Seabreeze says were looking at 15 knots at 5:30am then down to 11 by lunch time. High tide (brisbane bar) is 9:14.

are all boaters heading out before or after the swap or is anyone doing a pre dawn trip?

Im going to be heading out to Harries but probably not before first light (especially with a work function the night before)

Angus ill take 2 of the stickers bud does the blue or yellow look better on aluminium.

Mate Blue looks better on aluminium. The yellow looks better on pretty much darker colours. Although teh yellow ones look pretty snazzy on Brians boat.

We only have Blue in stock at the moment though so your in luck :P Will be ordering more yellow on monday. :)

The boat is fueled, the net is soaked to soften, the eggs are bought, now I just need to drag my butt out of bed to get there in time. And no I wont be heading out at 3am like some other lunatics.

But I will put the boat in after breaky and have a look around.

Ohh and Angus, I need some stickers too.... How about blue?

Yeap and I got the map and way points after last week. I also learnt how to use it now too Lozzel :P

Early at about 3.00 or so but with conditions at 15knotts it's no spot for the faint hearted, the HA reef is very exposed to wind.

Lets chat closer to Sunday

It looks like I will also be coming out as my brother in law (Pepe66) has asked if I wanted to make the trip and then have a fishing session afterwards. I have never fished there before and we are bringing the boat. Unfortunatly my cast net has been badly damaged by the mangroves in our backyard but still keen to see how it's done. This of course will all be dependant on the weather.

Mate weather aside it should still be a great morning.

I'll be there about 6:30, have a feed throw the net around(or net then feed, whatever) then weather permiting, Catching the snapper from hell:evil: With Angus as witness, I was thinking of trying a couple of differnt spots there. We'll see what happens.;)

I hope there's a bit of chop though, every time it's been flat there I have'nt caught a thing :(

I just tried to buy some blue stickers at about 5 and it said there is no stock left of them either?

Should I just wait a while Angus then try again next week?

Cheers, Joel ;)
