Something other than GT fishing
I had half a days leave owing from work so i took it on friday arvo and we packed up the camper instead of the boat and decided to stretch the new car's legs a little. We had a pretty good wet this year so many of the rivers still have plenty of water in them
was a bloody great weekend, two nights parked up on the Robe river and i mean parked right up on the river. The kids had a great time, spent the days swimming and eating and exploring and all only 2 hours from the front door of our house.
Will remember to take the fly rod next time, plenty of jacks around and some good size ones as well
have attached a few photos to inspire you guys to get out there with your kids, they will have a ball!!
mine did, beats nintendo wii thats for sure. Ill be back out a couple of weeks after exy
cheers

I am still to believe that the creeks up there are loaded with Jacks! All I got was a big slimy bucket of cod!

Did the same except on an island. Magnificent till the sandflies made their presence felt. Be scratching for a week or more I reckon.

With the crocs starting to be more regular arround Karratha and now even as far south as Coral bay I wonder how much longer you can enjoy carefree riverside activities.

I guess unlike the kimberly and NT we dont have the expansive floodplains enabling them to get hundreds of k's inland, when the rivers run they RUN
but
it wouldnt surprise me if they were there one day
