Welcome aboard straddiebrad.

This site has a great bunch of fishos they are always willing to share ideas and experiences and a trip or 2.

[Do$tylz]

yep. Unless "fishing buddies" is different to what I'm thinking about, there are plenty of offers around this site each week for people to join either a convoy or take a spare seat on someone elses trek in the big blue.

Welcome to the site, stick around, say G'day and you'll have plenty of mates to go fishing anywhere.

i have not done much out side fishing but keen to i normaly fish near the bar and all down the rainbow chanell past amity point but now i just bought 5.5 cox craft reefrunner and like to go outside for a look

[Angus]

That sounds good. There are a few people that fish more around that area. Im not one of them though as I dont have a boat!

I fish a lot land based with good results though around Straddy.

What do you usually target?

i just bought a 5.5 cox craft reefrunner and keen to do some out side fishing but a bit worried to just head out so i would love to tag along one time my boat takes 3-4 people so the next time you plan a trip count me in

[straddiebrad]

i try to taget mackerl or the medium size parrot and sweetlip at the frount of amity or the big bream around the boat ramp in the early morn

G'day straddiebrad,welcome to the site , I have just started fishing out off the top of Moreton you are more than welcome to come along . Also going to start fishing out of sunshine coast in the near future

[benno573]

i get out off the top of moreton myself at times. weather dependent may be heading out there on sunday so if you want to tag along more than welcome (my boat is full). it's a decent run across the bay, will need fuel for at least 3-4hrs running time. there are a few others on the site who head out there at times as well, keep your eyes on the "going fishing" noticeboard. doesn't mean we know what we are doing or anything like that, but we have fun trying!!!

[straddiebrad]

that would be great to tag along me and my brouther fished up north off moololabah done pretty well with nice catch of medium snapper

[straddiebrad]

my boat carries 135 liters of fuel is that enough to do itmy boat carries 4 people that leaves 3 spots for someone else but this weekend is out but looking forward to your next outing

[AZZA]

That depends on your fuel burn rate and where you are leaving from, I leave from Bribie to go to top of moreton approx 50k out to Huchies and that way if it blows up nasty it's a shorter trip back

[benno573]

from the mouth of the river to the cape is 58km. depending on your engine, burn rates can be anything up to 30 ltr per hour, in any case you should be ok, i always take a bit to spare just in case. it is closer from redcliffe or bribie to the cape and outside but by the time you tow the boat there it is quicker from the river from the southside of bris. and it can be a total bitch if it blows up and you have to cross the bay in 15-20knots. very wet ride home. never fun unless you have the worlds best catch in the esky!
