urhookedfish 12 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 You cant have a better start to a road trip for two peeps without KFC.If your doing an alnighter on the jetty you buy a mixed bucket with nugs, cripsy strips, chicken, chips etc. Eat a fair bit of it straight up..then wack it in the esky and once you get a bit peckish during the night you go for the second hoe.Oh man....the only prob is it normally runs out b4 the morning sun pops up so you end up having to eat a pie on the return journey home anyway and end up stopping at Wakies.oh summer days bring it on.!!! statesquider 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

piratepom 3,197 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 First night of every trip = T-Bone steak, baked beans and a couple of fried eggs, all done on the same hot plate, an eski full of beer on ice, sit back and enjoy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marko 0 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 You guys are making me mega hungry, also giving me the itch to get out there, so tempting to stuff work and high tail it outta here...What sadist invented work? Bugga we should all be on the track, rod in hand licking our lips in anticipation of that magic session when the fish come to the party! Ah I can see it now like a mirage on the horizon, bagged out after a fantastic summer's day, get back into camp, crack an ice cold coldie, doesn't touch the sides as it goes down the hatch, crank the barbie up, whack on some fresh calamari, boerewors, sosaties, with loads of sliced spuds....... magic. Wash it all down with a bit more of the good old amber. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

spog777 1 Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Always take my trusty baked beans on the jetty for a filling lunch-gotta luv em cold-i do lol. At night we used to tuck into an Editburgh Burger-man u all gotta try one of those from the takeaway-best thing since sliced bread. Nowadays we head into Minlanton to the local footy club for a full on steak with the trimmings-best tucker and cheapest price on the peninsula. Brekky usually consists of weet bix, 2 minute noodles, heaps of strong coffee Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Always makes me laugh coz our wives think we are doing it tough when in reality we are pigging out and having a blast. I have 2 Russian mates they bring the webber and everything is smoking reeeeel good, snapper, trout, and their special garlic smoked chook marinade... bring it on, onya lads, Marko.:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marko 0 Posted October 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Once had a night session on a jetty freezing cold with a howling wind with virtually no fish to show for my efforts. You know the drill, too cold to think straight, still a while before daylight, ravenously hungry with no food left, the time when even those gents start looking delicious, when the cockles make you salivate especially if you marinade them in tuna oil, ohhh yeah now you're talking! HMMMM, that curried mince is making my mouth water,how come when the bait starts looking soooo good to me the fish are not tempted? Man i've got to give up those all night sessions, for the sake of my sanity. Onya lads, Marko. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rocknev 2 Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 seriously thinking of an almonta trip next monday for a few days.... if i go, it will be baked beans, sausages,and marinated bbq steak from the best butcher ive ever been to... the steak is too die for....will be hooking up a couple of single burners with the desposible gas canisters, onto some frames i made, which sit on the back of the spare tyre rack on the back of the 4be... gets it all off the ground away from the ants...cant have open fires as its a national parkswag, sleeping bag, and a portable dvd player... sounds like a plan to me.

marko 0 Posted October 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 When I am on the Heysen Trail I pack a telescopic rod in my rucksac, take along a mini gas burner, instant noodles, tin of Staggs chilli beef, tinned herrings in mustard sauce,or curry sauce, a couple of tomatoes, fruit, tea and coffee, muesli bars. Magic to lift moral in winter when its peeing down with rain and you still have a looong walk to go before hitting camp. Man alive I love this country. :P Onya Marko.
