Exploring Bowen

<< < (2/2)

Nathan Cefai:
nice works boys!!thats a big barra!

Scott Maybury:
John is being very kind about the bet, the cast was of course a total freak accident, misjudged the distance by about 2 feet and in she went, could not believe it! The only bet was whether it would come back out and I lost, it didn't

was great to get out hadn't been fishing for nearly 8 weeks and hadn't thrown a popper in much longer so just to get out was great and to get some string pulled was fantastic. Landed one more GT than I would have in my office

those tuna were mental if that were in Sydney we would have been fighting a dozen boats for them!

Thanks for the effort John hope to catch up again soon

Tom Grubb:
yes 50m restriction zone shouldnt be a worry with good casting.. funny you bring up the green peace, we were there the day after they got them off the jettys. i think it may have had a factor in security gettin rid of us, haha! give it a few months and they may have settled down again.

2 weeks to fit it your new gps/plotter, is that sent to brissy and back :-)

Any trip is 100x better than office work scott :-)

yep 50m on our iron ore wharves over here... only a matter of time before I have a crack - I've seen 50kg+ fish while I've been at work!  :o

John Campbell:


 Hey scott was happy to make the effort, i had a day out of the office too  ;)
 Hope you had a less eventful trip home than you did on the way up mate
 and will have to catch up again soon

 These jettys hold some massive fish, although i am led to believe that abbott point
 is getting fished fairly regularly these days from a resort and new charter operation
 that has opened up on a nearby island, not sure how if that is making the GT a bit hook shy
 will have to get back and have another crack soon  :)

 Hey Tom next time you think about going to hay point we should get 3 or 4 boats together
 and make an assault, will keep security busy  ;D
