Hey guys, I would love to tag along however I am rostered to work night shift till easter sunday :( I would take the time off but getting paid double time and a half for 3 nights is handy in these "harsh economical times" ;)

Have fun!

Ok, Sounds like a good plan. My mate knows the area and I know a few spots worth checking out as well.

As I previously mentioned we are keen to get up and explore that area better, some seriously good fishing to be had their.

I will chat to him over the next week and check out if we can make this happen, I will be in touch.....

Cheers mate

Hey Guys,

This is a bit off topic, but do you know where you find out the dates when the army has the area closed for this year?

Cheers,
Simon

Simon,
Ring Range Control on 49355000 for closures. Somtimes things change on short notice, but normally have a good idea.
At present I think there will be big closures for nearly all July for the US exercise and some in November for the Singaporeans. The US closes the whole area normally, assuming they still have enough money to come over.

Be careful, because a lot of the closures only affect certain areas so you can often work around a closure.
