  1. jealous much? you bet. Reminds me of my childhood sitting out the front of the shack near Port Augusta with my now departed mum & dad. I can just imagine the sweet smell of the ocean & seaweed and the serenity. What have I got? the view of 2 storey dog box houses and the smell and sound of city hoons! Enjoy mate

  3. Noice! looking at booking accommodation for 2 nights at this place. Is it still called "Panga's Seafood Charter and Lodge" ? Can't find it on the tourism website so please post off season rates
  4. been a b@$%@&d of a winter for Super G & I. Either family commitments (new grandson ) or weather (crappy on days off ). Last winter we fished 3 out of every 4 weekends so looking forward to getting out. Those that know us will see us doing our usual thing, puffers and undersized KGW's . We will target legal Whiting, crabs & Squid. By catch of Flathead usually happens and a few Red mullet for the neighbours. Maybe Snapper on the Crusader if I get an invite
  5. anyhoo back on topic, I thought a roast/smoked lamb leg might be the goods
  6. Oi thems fighting words. Just cause you like west end and xxxx doesn't mean you need to put down the best beer in the world Coopers all the way for me settle down, undies started the argument. anyway it's still home brewed swamp water
  7. thanx brenton but, how long in the brine?
  8. I used to drink anything but last month clocked up 6 alcohol free days.....not in a row, 6 since 1976. as you say each to their own, I know people that drink Coopers! fermented Torrens water, well it smells & tastes like it. Now I've started an arguement What do the X’s in XXXX mean? Back in the day, beer quality was measured in Xs. The brewery’s first brew produced was XXX Sparkling Ale, which was awarded three Xs. The results were promising, but something was missing. So in 1924, they perfected the recipe further, gaining a fourth X.
  9. @ Panga - yeah I researched brine last night, Was a bit worried when some say 2 hours some overnight? any first hand info greatly appreciated. @ Underpants - same as above, the more hints/tips the better. I changed from West End to XXXX after 30 years coz I was getting gut aches?? and it was $4 a can at the bowls club (5 of us in a shout made the math easy) I dropped from 89 to 76 kg over 18 months with no exercise (stuffed knee & back) and I am putting the loss down to that. That's what I tell the wife, the more I drink the thinner I get
  10. might watch some footy......snacks done. Smoked Snapper, pickled crab, dip, bickies and celery sticks
  11. Got a $100 smoker free in a XXXX promo. First attempt today. Taste test and results later.
  12. 1 more sleep so don't forget. Can we have a prize for the member who forgets to do his tips the most times? I am odds on favourite for that
  13. being from the north of the state and only recently discovered Yorkes we would spend the time exploring over there every day we could. Don't usually do holiday weekends because of the crowds except we like good friday & xmas day fishing. You should see the 6 boaties at the ramp on those days, giggling away.
  14. I'm in. It's been so long since I have cared about football that it is in my old user name.
  15. Following on from seeseacol's thread, there is more than 1 way to skin a cat (or eat a crab) traditional stir fried - tomato/bbq sauce, white wine sweet chilli salt, pepper, chilli and now diluted vinegar. 1 apple cider 1 white, gunna try malt next. our first try at crab cakes - sensational, potato, mayo, s&p, lemon juice, home grown spinach & spring onion. dipped in egg & Panko.

  17. Yep Seeseacol, some cooked the usual way and a couple stir fried
  18. No garlic??? Food of the gods !!!! so you don't like the taste of food?
  19. Thanx brenton. Will be giving this a try soon minus the stinking garlic.
  20. Glad there is a hoop size not a "Hoopsy" size limit sorry, had to do it
  21. very generous of you BJ. Don't put my name in though I can't attend, but thank you.
  22. hope your only crossing the "t's" and not your "i's" makes it hard to see straight I have some spots out from Nth Haven I can share. Not too far from the break walls for Squid, crabs and the odd KGW to help get your kids hooked. Lol yep as straight as a dogs back leg We would really appreciate that would I require a GPS or are we talking landmarks for a rough location? I think Ill invest in a sounder/GPS shortly I don't think the first few trips will have one though. I have a hand held GPS (with marks) that you can use till you decide what you want to buy.

  24. I can't "morally justify" it, I just like killing things and the gubernment took my guns away. Last time I stabbed a human the judge didn't see the funny side so fishing it is.
