Caterpillar 1 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 If anyone is in or around Garden Island at low tide...about 40 or so metres along the boarwalk there is a fishing rod, ET Baitcaster with Jarvis Walker reel, freshly spooled with fluro braid submerged somewhere within that region. I attempted to retrieve it but without luck.If you find it, good luck to you. Needless to say I am pretty devastated For those of you who are familiar with my previous posts, you will understand when I say I am never going fishing with my other half again Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kayak Noob 76 Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Considering this post is 2 days old, I'd dsay it's long gone. I went fishing there with a mate once... I put my rod down, went to go stick some more gents on the hook, and bang, he trips over it and kicks over the edge. I lunge for it, miss, and watch the entire rod plummet.. about a metre and stop. Then the pain from the hook, lodged in my finger :c The entire rod and reel was hanging suspended from my index finger. Needless to say I was not impressed with my mate, but at least I kept my rod :woohoo: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bent87 0 Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I heard a story about a couple of brave souls diving around the deep channels of the port- apparently their treasure included an empty safe, and several sacks of plate sized angle grinded gtr xu1 Torana- minus engine, wheels ect...
