Re: Dunsborough fishing trip

Very nice, I have a lot of great memories of Eagle bay back in the days I was spearfishing, fantastic place for a fishing trip, it's a well known area for big blue groper and bloody big white pointers, I remember always looking over my shoulder out there. I'll be heading that way in the new year sta...

Re: Dont see this everyday.

Re: Boat Ramps

Great to see some moment regarding ramps, I've complained several time to the council regarding the warmies boat ramp parking and access, you get cars (no trailers) parking along the prep lane who leave their cars while they go fishing along the approach to the power station, also the pontoons get c...

Re: Trailer movers

If you have room and it's a straight driveway and want to make it real easy to get your boat up, there are plenty of cheap 4x4 12v winches around now, just dyna bolt it at the end of driveway, make a bridle for rear of trailer, they all have remotes now so you can guide her up no worries.

Re: Yak close call

Agree with all, If a incident happens in the future I can see a whole legal nightmare for those involved, we don't need more red tape and regulations but surely something has to be done and more policing, I have been advised I could have call Melbourne Port Control and reported the unlit yak, this I...
