Landbased at flatrocks.....yes its on again!
Alright guys i no the last time didnt work out due to myself pulling out at the last minute due to work commitments but im sure to see this one through! Ok the plan of attack will be to discuss a weekend when we can get up there. Im thinking a friday avo leave and arrive at around 5ish, stay the night and fish the next day until your content. this is the flatrocks located approx 1 hour north of wanneroo.
Im thinking friday the 1st or 8th of august will be a goer for this and everyone is welcome as long as they are self suficiant etc. A 4x4 is needed to get to the spot and sleeping,cooking camping gear is recomended. the track in is also alittle tricky but not for those with some 4x4 experiance. We can all camp around the area easily but still a tent or swag is recommended. Those who havent got a 4x4 can get a lift with others how have room.
Fishing the area for those who havent been there is generally done off the reef or "flatrock" so beach rods are the go. Ill list a few things which are recommended to bring along for "personal" saftey every thing else is up to you and dont stress if you havent got something im sure some of us will have it.
1. Rock hoppers or good reef boots
2. Food and plenty of drinks
3. Toilet paper, shovel.lol.
Recovery gear for the 4x4,s isnt assential but recommended but as said some of us can help out if needed. There are rangers around and cutting up or general runnong amuck wont be welcome on the beach so leave your skills at home please. If theres any questions please dont hesitate to ask and we'll help out.
Most importantly put ya name on the list for a bit of good fun and write next to your name if you have a 4x4 or need a lift and where you are located. We will meet at a discussed place and go from there together in convoy. Cheers spess.

The track in is a bit rough and tight but quite easy in 2nd or 3rd gear, as you near the beach there is a few big sand hills to climb which is where you boot it a bit more but the beach is the only real problem as its soft as hell!

Unfortunatelty I dont like swaggin it when its pissing down.
Road in is easy if you follow the basics.
1. Let your tyres down before it gets soft.
2. Dont give it too many revs. Reving the hell out of your car just makes bigger ruts. Easy on the revs and you will get in no probelm at all.
Last trip up there didnt some one else get there softwheelers in?

dates depending
If it's the 1st I'm in; if it's the 8th I'll be in the Great Sandy Desert.

Ok guys that gives us 19 people so far which is reaaaaallly good. Ive disided that there will be no competion at this weekend because it gets too hard and we are just there for fun, HOWEVER i am going to ask for $10 of all who come for a group effort sponsor to the fishwrecked site! Adam has been good enough to let us all enjoy the site for free so lets give something back for future comps. Ill call the donation the "Flatrock landbased donation" and it will be a great donation back to the site so it can keep rolling. I hope no one has a problem with this as its only $10 each but will add to a great donation. Cheers Spess. Please make it known if your unhappy to pay this................
