    That’s a great fish and from a Jet Ski. That’s awesome.

    Ahhhhhhh, Those were days hey Noel. Also if you owned a station wagon you left the rear top half up (it was split) and it would suck in all the exhaust fumes. My first car, XR 67 Falcon never had a heater. Tell the kids these days and they wouldn’t believe you. But we happy in those days. 😀

    Then …. ”Oh” I went fishing though I “Ought” to have stayed at home and fixed the mower. My plan was better than Blackfish’s. ……

    I “Ought” to have gone out fishing but the wife said no. “Oh” poor me.

    Great post. Buggar about the weather though you two but a trip away and catching up with some mates is a worthy reward. As Donna said, get windscreen replacement on you car insurance as “ Cows” windscreens are expensive these days because of the “Cow” stuff.

    I have never heard of it being called “Ought” always “O” to me as well.

    This one hit a Reef going quite fast. Boat was a Stabicraft and stuffed the motor but left the leg on.

    I’m with you @noelm But I suppose that’s what’s happens when you get more “Senior” you end up with many a story from over the years. My problem is I’m terrible at typing and not a wordsmith who can convey the story to do it justice. I suppose sitting around a camp fire the context of my stories make up for my bad telling of it. “ I Dips Me Lid” to you Wazza.

    Good on you Neil by making the jump. I also took delivery of a COW and my wife hates it when on cruise control it self corners. She reminds me of Dotty out of Miss Fisher not trusting technology. ( Miss Fisher. A great Australia Murder Mystery) Many years ago a good mate bought a new Hilux, the mechanic said it would last X amount of Kilometres, he said great, I can live to 109 before I need a new car. 😀 All the best with you new purchase mate.

    It may pay to look at some Pawn shops in the local area @fredflathead they may turn up there. Sorry about the loss.

    Buying stuff

    Blackfish replied to noelm's topic in The Bar

    Not a Grumpy Old Man Rant @noelm but it’s the way of the world now training us to accept stuff like that. Up here I try to support a smaller hardware store when I can as they are more personalised. The other day I went into the smaller store to get a couple of bags of potting mix. I carried one out to the car as it was parked out on the street, then turned around to walk back into and get the other one but the fellow behind the counter was just about to my car with the other one. Old school stuff.

    Just heard from someone far more knowledgeable than me. Australian Red Cod Pseudophycis palmate

    Sounds like you put you one day off to good use there Dave plus a 45cm Big Eye is a great fish and certainly given you some hurry up on that gear. 👍 My Daughters volunteers for Head Space and they had something on at Wauchope Tec last week so my wife and I had lunch at the boat ramp there, really nice day and there were a total of 2 boats out. Bahaaaaaaa. I can’t get used to the difference between Sydney ramps and up here, it’s so civilised.

    That’s fantastic Kantong, looks like a win, win for the whole family and that Sushimi looks great to.

    So I wandered down to the "Gone Fishing Day" at Port and it was really well done with Maritime, Fisheries and The Recreational Fishing trust represented. It seemed RFT had a stack of small rods and were rigging them up so people could have a fish off the Wharf, also volunteers were helping out on the Wharf as well with bait ETC. Also there was plenty of stickers and support for Boaters and fishers. My only thought was maybe not the last Sunday of School holidays but the middle Sunday.

    How good is that Bonefish at Coffs. Also I may wander down to the “Gone Fishing Day at Port” it’s a great initiative.

    Hi @nal would you have a photo of just the fish, for me its hard to tell as its a Juvenile but if you had a better shot of the fish itself showing the Lateral Line that would be great. For what I can see it's a Spanish/Narrow Barred. Happy for someone to have a shot. BF

    Test run

    Blackfish replied to Bryant fish's topic in Boating

    That is very sad about the boat capsizing causing a loss of life. Up NW where do go, I have had Humpbacks swim aggressively towards the boat. Now my take on this is not the female with the calf but a young male who wants the female to himself and we pose a threat.

    It could be a Slate Pencil Sea Urchin, but that’s a guess as I missed the day at school when we doing Sea Urchin’s…. 😄

    Great stuff. I myself love WA, especially the Kimberley region. No reception up there generally. Where about are you Pickles.
  23. Blackfish
    Dohhhh, great set of Jaws.
