Pillans

Hi Mike, had a trip into Pillans southern end last weekend via Christys Creek system. Not a lot of fish caught but quality not quantity certainly made up for it. The biggest around 4 kilos and my best for the season. Pretty dry too with not much if any water flowing in the creeks. Disappointing was that previous campers had left a bloody great mess of rubbish etc. Also the idiots lit fires on the cushion plants that are hundreds of years old. They make the effort to walk 3 or 4 hours to access these magnificant fishing spots yet can`t make the effort to take their rubbish out. They wouldn`t leave a mess in their backyards i bet. I ended up carrying their rubbish out and had the campsite pretty much back to normal, otherwise a good trip.

Just a quick email to let you know that the Longford fishing club won the inaugural Community Club award at 46th Tasmanian Sports Award and Gala dinner held at the Wrest Point Casino last night.

The evening was a black tie affair with over four hundred attending and hosted by Jo Palmer and Tim Lane.

G'day all ,
Selwyn and myself took a quick run to Great lake this on the 14th, this fish must of committed suicide as it was the only bite we had .
Tthe day was fine. We travelled about 10km for it , up the eastern corner above the intake only saw one or two duns and three other boats. It was a pleasant trip out
cheers Tom

Cramps Bay February 7th 2010

Left home with my eldest daughter (Demi) at 4 am this morning.

Half way up Poatina Hill we were met by a fellow running down the road toward us and frantically waving his arms, as we pulled up he told us that a Log Truck had broken down on a blind bend just up from us, if he hadn't of told us, there would be a fair chance we would have run smack bang up its clacker!!.
