Penguin Island sandbar
Submitted by Rusty Balls on Sat, 2013-10-05 15:44
Hello All ,
Just read on yahoo that the wives of the blokes that drowned recently are suing the government for damages ..
Thoughts ?
I have fished the Bar for many years and always look at the sign that says don't try to cross or words to that effect with a smile ...anyone else had any 'moments' on the sandbar ?
I did get washed off one winter it was MY fault and wouldn't blame anyone else ..I can swim like a fish and it saved me that day.

Problems
Never had issues done 10s of times, as I have never done it in winter when its pretty deep have seen people in summer have problems though.
