The Entrance |
Date: July 2008 |
This month the club broke with tradition and members met at the Entrance on Saturday at noon. After a well cooked lunch we set off, we being Dave Witham, Chris Bannerman, Ken Colmer, Richard Hassall, Pete Muddle launching; Paul McGrath, Murray Keating, Damien Webber, Roger Fielden, Peter Frere, Max Gear and Russell Piper provided the crews. There was some trepidation but even more mirth provoked by the report of a 7 metre White Pointer loose in Tuggerah Lake. A quick check revealed no-one had brought their baby seal or King penguin flies so an opportunity was lost there.
Unfortunately it was quite windy making the selection of spots that much more difficult. The fleet fanned out some heading north, others west while most concentrated around the bridge area. It was a lovely sunny day except for the wind and water clarity was 100%. Mac reckoned he could see crabs dancing on the bottom but when asked whose he refused to say. Fish were sighted holding around the bridge pillars but proved finicky with no strikes or even follows in this area. |
