It’s finally happening

Ok I’m pretty sure we definitely can’t go fishing now due to stage 3 restrictions in WA

The government now has the capacity to enforce these restrictions.

“If you choose to ignore the law, there’s every chance you’ll get caught,” McGowan said. People must stay at home unless shopping for essential items medical or exercising 

 with all this sitting at home or wherever you may be it can get so damn boreing. 

you can omly watch so much tv or movies , then you have the food consumption that goes with boredome . 

what are people doing to solve these things. 

.

Have had to shitcan my 40th birthday in 4 weeks time and with lockdown seemingly imminent I rushed out yesterday and grabbed my pressie. 

Plan is for the kids to surprise me to give them a bit of excitment and Ima have all the time in the world to get accustomed to her.

 Surfing the web while sitting around at home and found this article from carsales dated 28 March 

subtitled Road Trips

Until such time as you’re actually diagnosed with coronavirus, there’s nothing to stop you taking a trip out into the country and visiting places that would welcome you and your money. Unless the whole country goes into lock-down, then revert back to suggestions one through four.

Just make sure that you’re not living beyond your means doing so.

There are so many great places to see and things to do within an hour or so of any capital city in Australia.

Plan your trip around things that you want to do; focus on the car museums or race tracks dotted around the state, or find a lovely scenic drive to enjoy.

 While in k town I thought I would check out the local ramp. Got a bit of a shock as to how low the tide can go. Plenty of fish around as in mudskipp 

 Put them up Ledge if you were considering not too, mate we all need a good laugh in these times. It distracts from the shit. 

Here's a couple to get the ball rolling

Plenty of discussion already I know, I'm a lucky one been set up to work from home....first week and its doing my head in already.

Who's out of work...lost major contracts...let good staff go etc?

Anybody get the Gov $700 payment...did it help, is there additional help available?

Lots of people doing it tough for sure, mental well being is a big concern!

 Saw this on Facebook 

Looking at doing an outdoor kitchen living area in my backyard. It's more the patio/gazebo that I would need to get designed. Is anyone or can anyone recommend someone who could design something up. Location dawesville. 

 Just heard that new Zealand are going to shut down for a month . That should kill the virus. Off. Not a bad idea really. 

 Just saw this on ABC

It looks like Rottnest is going to become a Quarantine for people who might have the virus! 

Lets hope that it doesnt turn into a quarantine only destination!

Well it’s strange times we live in, seeing plenty of stories that concern, my wife is a diabetic so she’s at risk. Elderly at risk. Seeing posts this morning where it’s also being transmitted via fuel pumps, so that’s something else to be considered. I’m happy to sit at home, just venture out for alcohol runs. Look after yourselves and your families, and hopefully we all come out the other side in good health.
On a side note, I saw yesterday where Trump said, this virus is killing people who haven’t died before.

Any news on whether Coral Bay is going to remain open or shutting down during this period of uncertainty. We are booked in on the 16th May but seeing how many places are winding down so as to try and prevent the spread I'm just wondering if the Bay is going to be affected.

Well we're a week out from it all starting again, was a big off season with a bit of movement and new signings.

Sure theirs a few looking forward to seeing how there teams go..pretty excited to see how the new young looking Freo will perform...although early pre season excitement is usually squashed before mid season due to injury...given we already have shit loads of injuries this year might pan out different!

Happy to kick the tipping site back into action if we have enough interest ?.
Lets keep it the same $50 to enter, paying 1st , 2nd and 3rd as per last year.

Can i get initial thoughts on placement of new trippleshot transducer please. And as i dont know the degree of my transom do i just use A position cheers.

Hey bit of a long shot. Anyone driving up to Exmouth any time soon can tow an empty trailer up. Its only a 6mtr single axle alloy trailer and is empty. Bearings have been done and all rego and roadworthy. Will need to pick up from Chivers Marine in Bibra Lake.
If you can assist before the end of March happy to pay cash for fuel or a days fishing trip off Exmouth.
Cheers

 its nearly that time of year again. headed for Coral Bay mid may. Sandy Brenden myself and this year our new deckie my mum . After loosing my dad in november mum has decided to join us for the trip and plan to get her onto a few nice fish.

Who else will be up there mid may

Hi just wondering if anyone has been to Nanga recently and what its like at the moment? Heard its pretty run down and probably not suitable for a stay with the missus who is more into the glamping.
