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

More story

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)

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

Cheers

next bit

Hi all

Well its been another week at Ningaloo and Tim and I have had some nice days and some not so nice. Did I tell ya’s that it can get bloody windy over here. Nearly always offshore but just too strong to surf or fish from the boat. On the good days we are out fishing and I have even snuck a couple of great surfs in. Only short sessions as I feel guilty leaving Tim in the boat doing nothing. The fishing has been a little slow after what was a great start. Still guaranteed to catch a feed but nothing of much size. We have been getting a few Coranation Trout, which we could of kept, due to there being no size limit but we let them go anyway. Tim caught a nice mystery fish (shown in one of the pictures) but we didn’t know what it was so back it went. Maybe some of you fishoes could tell us, I thought it looked like a Mangrove Jack but not sure if they live in these waters. Any good size fish that we have to fight we seem to lose to the sharks. We went for a drive the other day and did some climbing/bouldering in a small gorge only a few kms from camp. Had some fun and I hate to say it but Tim did a couple of problems that I couldn’t. Oh the joys of getting old. Windy again this morning thus the letter. Will send this Monday when I’m in town seeing Tim off at the airport. Had a late trip out in the boat yesterday arvo and with only two pieces of bait left, Tim caught this nice Spangely on sunset.

Cheers

Tim and Roy :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Murphs story

Hey all
Some more little drama’s but nothing Tim and I couldn’t deal with. We drove into the Bungles and on arriving found we had no water in the van tank. Thankfully they had water there and it only needed boiling before it was drinkable. We found that we had lost all of our water (along the very rough at times, track in) through the breather on the tank. It was never set up right from the start so Tim and Fashioned/wittled a piece of wood that would let air in but not loose our precious water. It seems to be working.
Our time at Karajini was special and Tim & I had great fun canyoning/swimming and climbing.
As you can see by the pics they do have some wide loads up this way. There were two of those trucks with 8 metre wide loads just outside of Tom Price.
We are now at Exmouth and it will be an early start tomorrow with the low tide at Yardie Creek (a bit over an hour away) at 7:00am
We are both well and looking forward to getting the boat in the water to dive, fish and surf.
Will be out of touch for a week or so, until we are back in town.
Cheers
Tim and Roy

Hey all
Travels are going well with the occasional misshap to make things interesting
We have been swimming at the beautiful bitter Springs at Mataranka, done nearly everything at Litchfield N.P. walked all of the gorges in El Questro almost in one day, been to both ends of The Bungle Bungles, checked out Gheiki Gorge and are now camped at Fitzroy Crossing. Its been a bit of a whirlwind and I’m finding it hard to keep up with Tim.
All good though
Heres a couple of pics of Tim and I showing the other pathetic tourists how things should be done.
Cheers
Roy
