Nice mate! I stayed at that same caravan park in March. Awesome place to stay.

I left my brand new LED lantern there though and them bastards never returned my call about it :(
I’m sure if they found they would given you a call Jase & Nic good honest people. Other campers may have found it first.
Bummer :down:

Here is a pic of some of the flathead we often catch if fishing in the bay at Eden ( my new phone let’s me put pics up now) apparently they are just deformed so fisheries say but I wonder because only seem to catch them in the bay not out offshore.

Well done All ways fishin. Nice to see Eden is working for you and you and the kids are getting on to them.
Very odd that they are hunchbacked and that it is only in the Bay, somethings up.

That’s very strange!!! How many in 10 would have a hunch back like that?

It’s only in the bay we seem to get them but about 2-3 out of 10 we catch. Very strange

That's a very good question. I wonder if the spine is hunched, bent or big bone nodules like snapper.

Yeah, I wonder , , , , there has to be a reason , , , , especially as there are many like it and as it seems only in the bay.
