i think there is a one rod at a time limit on the lake? anyone able to clarify?

1 rod per permitt isn't? So does that mean if you already have a SIP and then the cost of the weekend includes a permit does this mean you would have 2 permitts thus allowing you to use 2 rods???????

i'm not sure hinze is included in the SIP... check the dpi website... it's not listed.

[benno573]

ah, stupid link... can of our our good looking hard working mods help a brother out? :kiss:

[Beefa]

Yeah just checked the SIP doesn't cover Hinze so looks like it's the 1 rod.

That blows that theory then:blush: :angry: :blush:

sorry about that mate, i was thinking along the same lines earlier today.

i guess it's going to be a fair comp now though? one line in use per person at all times? wish i could say that profish is mine... somehow i doubt it.

hope to catch my first bass, yellowbelly, silver perch or toga though!!

[kriso]

you never know your first just might be the winner!

[Beefa]

Fairs fair for one and all.

I'm looking to cross off a few 1st's off the list as well mate this weekend along with a few other people also I reckon. Every fish caught will be a 1st and a PB for me as I am yet to get a fish in my yak(only had it 2 weeks and been out fishing once)except if i get a fork tail catty got one of those the other weekend at wivenhoe.

Hope I get a fish now:laugh:

We have used 2 rods on many occasions. Just not at once. I did not know about the one rod rule.

Also guys just a heads up, photo entries will be allowed to avoid un required harm to the fish. So please bring your cameras if you have them and a measuring devise.

[kriso]

[benno573]

Gotta stay up till one tonight so will have plenty of time to get ready. Just finished some repairs and am tying knots. I am so amped for a fish this weekend. Talked to a fella at sportys today and he got a 43cm bass this morn out of the western arm on a g-vibe up in the shallows of ians island.

[Feral]

Good luck fella's hope you do well!

[fishyman]

since you must take a photo of your catch and im camera less exept for the shitty quality camera phone could i possibly fish alongside someone who has a camera just incase i need it?

[MichaelJ]

good luck every1 going tommorow

[Feral]

Watch out for that Angus bloke, he is in Real Estate you know.

You know that 3/4 size furniture they stick in display homes to make the rooms look big, he's probably got a Real Estate version of a brag mat!

[fishyman]

in that case,

angus could i borrow your mat hahah.

[fishyman]

kriso, everything good with the mats?
