you could almost guarantee taht one of them will be bream, flathead or whiting for the land based, im hoping flathead, and id maybe have a guess at macks being on the cards maybe?

[blockah]

ive entered but not sure were im going to fish as yet, depends on weather & what fish we will be chasing, wich as you know we wont find out till the night befor.

[squeak6969]

there would prob have to be at least 1 fresh water species as well wouldnt there? what do you think it would be?

[Keen-as-fisho]

It will no doubt be either, Bream, Flathead, Whiting or Bass. I would like to see pike and toad fish I don't really mind what the species will be, except for location choice. I will be yakking it.

Thats a great point tugger. We wont actually be on fraser but instead one of the small islands inside of it. Hopefully there is at least service to call, or a landline so we can call someone to check our emails :/

A choice between whitting and flathead....exciting Um I suppose I will just head to a flat somewhere, maybe out the front of newport canals, got some good flatties there in the past.

Did you dig the worms already in anticipation Wayne?

Make sure Deb doesn't start planning next holiday until the money is in the bank

Hi Marty, new rules this year mate, the 4 grand is for the mystery length fish.

I always love the challenge so i will give the longest fish a shot.

No worms yet mate, low tide at midnight, you know the spot if you want to come and help.

Like i said good luck to everyone with mystery length as the main prize everyone has an equal chance, cheers wayne

As much as I relish digging in the mud in the dark I need an early night - going to look for some prawns tomorrow.

Good luck to everyone fishing the Pirtek comp.

[youngy]

Hi Marty, hope your prawning was as good as the fishing mate, i also hope you ended up like a drowned rat like me.

hate to think i was the only one, cheers wayne

[rosstralia46]

[youngy]

Pretty happy Ross, but a tough day at the office, cheers wayne

[zan0_15]

Think Dave and I got wetter than you did (no bimini!). We managed a feed but only just. Prawns were there but so were the boats. We did pin a couple of decent Flathead in an area they shouldn't be in this time of year though.

Looks like you had a good day - plenty of big fish? Good luck with the mystery length.

Well Wayne thats 1 more then we got but we did get a very wet BHIND we moved about 6/7 time but no luck and congrates Mate very nice whitting.What part of the goldie did you get it

[youngy]

Marty don't think mystery length will be 40cm plus, can't help myself always have to go for biggest.

Dassa, wet was an understatement but that's when the big ones came calling today, didn't mind standing in the rain netting that sucker though.

Fished the Coomera mate not as many fish as the Nerang but on average a bigger fish, cheers wayne
