Next installment
Hey all
Well our camp has been full this week, only to be expected with the onslaught of the school hols. We now have camp hosts, John and June from Busselton who I have met on previous trips. We had a few boys come in last week that we later found out it was Danny Green and some mates. Made sense when we saw them sparring at dawn and all through the day. Good bunch of fella’s .They were the blokes who tried to cross the creek on high tide and failed, drowning their car. From word, I think it was posted all over Facebook. Anyway have had a great week, surfing every day and catching good fish. Got a couple of Macky’s at once and that was a bit of a handful. Kept one to feed the camp and released the other. The next day I got a good size Cobia and it really put up a good fight. He was also released after a couple of pics. A couple have just left this morning so there is a spare site again.
Seeya when I seeya

Hey all
Not a great deal of surf this week
Did some diving and fishing
I prefer the Spanish Mackerals just on legal size, that way not too much gets wasted. In saying that I have been giving away a lot of fish.
The whales are here now and some are a little too friendly
Sitting at the hill at the lighthouse now and it looks like the swell has jacked up a bit but I have to wait until 6:00pm for the low tide to cross the creek about 100kms down the coast. At least I’ve got a good veiw.
Cheers all
Until next time I go to town (probably Wednesday)

A bit more
Hey All
Not much to report on this week. Only had a few surfs and haven’t fished outside of the reef due to strong winds. My old mate, Adam is here now with his new lady and two little girls. He seems to be going well with the instant family and they are great people.
I took a drive out to the end of Sandy Point the other day and got horribly bogged. The sand is so fine that I just sank and it took a fair bit of digging to get out. Didn’t get the Max Trax off the roof though. Will not be heading out there again.
Watching the Humpbacks play and cruise past whilst surfing is awesome. There are heaps of them up here now.
Well only a couple of underwater pics this week. They were taken at the end of the wave at Yardies, it drops off to about 30ft so it’s a great place to anchor the boat
Cheers

Big thanks to you Dude
That would of taken me decades to firstly figure out and then do.Yes Mr Squiggs. You’d be right about the waterfall at El Questro but Tim is hanging off the wall just to the right of the same falls. We did do Tunnel creek later on.
Missing the moto action and unfortunately I won’t be at the Nundle ride this year, sounds like it is going to be ridicuosly over crowded. You’s may have to run seperate groups. There will certainly be some knowledge around the pit fire though.

P.S. Thanks again Dudester.Good onya Murph
enjoy your time over there Hey All
Well I’m back in town again. That’s another week gone. The surfed turned it on this week. With one day too big to surf. My mate Adam has gone back to Margaret River but I have run into another bloke on a yacht. He turns out to be the brother of the girl my best mate from school married. What a small world. The fishing has been great also. I feel I haven’t done enough diving this trip but the water hasn’t been exceptionally clear due to the winds and swell. Still had a nice dive with a few Manta’s the other day. Bloody hard to position the boat, jump out and hope they stay around for a piccy, always trying to stay with the sun behind me. Hoping the boat doesn’t drift off too far. It seems as though the whales are heading south again or at least that was the direction they were all going yesterday.
Fishing yesterday was hard work but I managed to get 4 Golden Trevally. Some were thrown back due to my freezer being full. I had a school of good size ones at the back of the boat so all you had to do was drop a bait in and hook up. That’s the easy part. Trying to land them in the boat with no fight to slow them down is almost impossible. If you let them run and try and wear them out a bit the sharks end up with them. If you try and reel them straight in the 15kg line snaps. Still its all pretty exciting fishing. I guess I’m getting 1 fish for every 6 or more the sharks get. Sometimes the ratio is much worse.
Its been very hot here the last few days. When the wind doesn’t blow the temperature soars.
Anyway enjoy the photos, I certainly enjoy taking them
Cheers
Roy
