Well we arrived on Friday 4th to board the tweed princess, and what can i tell you except the whole area was declared a natural disaster, Lol i know how to pick em. We had to stay on the marina the first night but the fishing was average, We finally got going next day to find out just how bad the river was..

All the debris around the pilons we ancored up for the night around eucobar island and fishing was still quite poor, hooked up with many stingrays though.

Time for a spa, This was an awesome boat. We ended up travelling all the way up river close to condong, I stopped many times launched the yak and tried most of the esturies for jacks and bream, with no luck. Way to much junk and fresh water.
