exxy comp 2013

well, its a shame its not happening this year with the boss not there.

but the way i see it there is going to be a few members there around the same time, soooo.....maybe we can organize our own little thing.

keep it simple, every boat chuck $50 into a kitty, nomiate a fish we can all target within a certain amount of time and the biggest takes the lot, oviously you will need proof of your catch, so same rules as adam run would apply!!

 

what you think guys? add to the fun and keep the exxy comp going.

cheers ron

Tim yes I will be trying for

Sun, 2013-01-06 04:05

Tim yes I will be trying for them sometime soon as they do get them out from there, as well as dolphin fish and wahoo. Ron to get a house in Exmouth for two weeks and fuel.and a two day drive up and back servicing the boat and car for the trip lookin $7-8k not cheap. You have to book in advance so the weather can and usually does blow for a few days stopping you from fishing. To go to the Abrohos, last trip $700 I can do ten trips a year now instead of one. The fishing is as good and the diving is better. Your on your boat so 1 day or 10 days at the islands still costs the same. once your there it only costs a little fuel each day. And I can pick the weather to go as it's only 5 hours away. yep no more Exmouth for me.

no mate, no comp.there used

Mon, 2013-01-07 20:47

no mate, no comp.

there used to be one held by adam when he lived there, since he has moved no comp anymore.

it was just a thought for the guys who have done it before and will be there the same time this year.

its no big deal mate and will continue as planned.

Mon, 2013-01-07 21:46

So its a bit of a get together for FW crews and you hold it in Exmouth ? Is it a "closed" get together with a set group of crews or can any FW member join in ? If its open and theres no objections from the guys that normally go I'll check with my lot as to whether they might be interested in attending. Be good to put a few more faces to names. When is it ?

cheers

March

Tue, 2013-01-08 12:47

We will be there around the end of march - beginning of April again. Easter is end of march & the holidays are around Anzac day in april so sometime between the two. We look forward to catching up to the F/W crew that will be there. Bodie has already promised us a nice dinner on the porch of his house overlooking the marina,  haha.

Maybe some of the crew from Ktown may pop down this year,  hey Bruce.

Looking forward to it as usual, it's always a good time. I will keep an eye open for others heading up there.

cheers & be safe   Rob

Hi

Tue, 2013-01-08 13:18

Happy new year to ya Bodie & all the other F/W members. Mate that dinner & the cold beer is the only reason we are goin to Exy this year  lol. We have given up on the fish so now it's just a social event for us  haha.

Seriously buddy, we look forward to catchin up with you & your scaley mates, lol. Will you be taking the "prime mover" again to get the boat & gear there again ?? 

How did ya go with the new sounder & locating it on the dash. Mike just made a new ali face plate for his consol & cut new holes to accomidate the electronics, worked a treat.

cheers Mate, be safe  Rob

Happy new year to you too

Tue, 2013-01-08 13:28

Happy new year to you too mate, yep the prime mover will be there again this year, arriving Monday 1st april.. Only way to move the pallet of beer!

 

Waiting to hear back from the boat manufacturer on the console remodel, snapped my transducer off on Sunday....ran over a cray float and didnt see it. So no choice now! One of the engineers i work with also suggested an ali face plate, 4mm thick and powder coated.. its an option but will see how i go. Only want to do this once!

 

Fishing wise in Exmouth, going to be tough work, think we will travel further this year in an attempt to get away from the sharks....if that is at all possible.
