Ashburton River Onslow

While in onslow on one of the windy days while sitting around the round table i had an idea to go out too the Ashburton for a look,

so we packed some waterSurprised and some fishing gear (the durango) and headed out there.

first stop an old camp spot ive used some years ago on the fresh water end of the river and had a play to see if we could get any catfish for a bit of fun but nothing bitting.

Kasey helping the old fella outLaughing

Maxy was using the secret method of fishing but strangely enough never caught anything Surprised

what a nice spot but time to move on and head to the mouth of the river

Maxy had this queenie before most of us even got to the water

giving the guys a run for there money with myLaughingEmbarassed durango

Luke finally got a fish (should have used the durango)

nice spot but time to go,shame the miggies were so bad there.

Jody got a nice mangro jack but i dont have a pic and there were a few more fish caught by all but i dont have any pics of them.

just one of the days we had doing some serious fishingLaughing

Chuck the Ligh Gear in?

Tue, 2008-07-01 07:47

Why would you waste gear and throw it in the water? Tongue out

Maybe cast a line in might be worth putting there C.M! Laughing

But it is pearler of spot to cast a line in.

Cheers lads,

Bloody hell, I don't deserve that. Embarassed

I can say it is a good spot though, chuck the light gear in, get a fish for a feed and then go in the water and collect your gear back.

Cheers lads,
