After the passing of my father recently P1280108.JPG a trip away was needed so along with Brett we headed up the river.

Dave, sorry to hear of the passing of your dad. A good innings and a full life lived - the pic on the riverbank a memory frozen in time. Sounds like a tough year all round. I recently snuck up to the Murray for a few nights just to enjoy the solitude, watch the river flow and contemplate life. It pu...

I still can’t get over how quiet it was, very eerie indeed. Was definitely a well needed getaway for both of us, after the going ons of the last cpl of weeks. Thanks for allowing me to come.

They can be right on the edge, so dont stand too close. They'll be in the deeper water during the day...

I missed something there, I think it was the humour, :down: cheers davo

Launched at Clifton Springs today in awesome winter conditions and after picking up a small squid for bait near the old jetty headed over to Curlewis Bank in search of a KGW or two. Now that the motor's nearly reached 10 hours I can open it right up for 5 min bursts and read 37.9 knots on the gps so...

Headed over to Lang Lang for the first Krakka Yakkaz comp. Turned out to be a very popular even with over 35 kayaks entered. It was a cold but calm, early start albeit it a little uncomfortable as I forgot my kayak seat :down: https://scontent.fmel8-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/67573296_1015658463318087...
