    You need to pickup coined along your travels & use him for bait :D

    Mmmmmmmmmm. Dingo beach is just like a place I drew for you ON THAT MUD MAP YOU COULDN'T FOLLOW.

    By the way, when you get to Bowen, ummmm, have fun. I had a good night once in the roadhouse a few years back. Guy came in, said he wanted to kill the bloke I was travelling with, then apologised coz he thought my mate was someone else he knew. Well at least I saw the funny side of it. I would've helped him just for the sake of experiencing something new.

    And just to let everyone know, it was a homemade cheesy chicken pot pie with a puff pastry top served with salad and chips. And a knife and fork you too! At least sambo's misses liked it. And I like her better than you. :p

    Gastronomic criticism from a Scot (pretend Scot)? Kind of like asking a Greek for financial advice.

    well... ended up getting snorkel gear and a 8hp 3.7m aluminium boat for $120 AUD. all this for 5 hours... not too bad, if we caught a damm fish that is! :mad:
    no more relying on local and google wisdom... nothing beats central coast nsw nothing
    at least i got to walk on one fkn boring isolated island all by myself...

    today i learned it wasnt just me the fish were ignoring... local fisherman got shamed too (i.e. the one whom pointed us to yonder)... at least he fixed us up with some juvenile snapper - meh... chicken texture for children of the corn.

    still deciding where to fish next... probably have another go at dingo beach area... arrrggg only one damm baby fingermark bream caught so far on trip
