    Its not the putting the rod together but more catching the fish. So when I go home I have a reason why there is no fish for the freezer. ops: Mind you that wholesales fish market could be looking good if empty handed on way home. :wink:

    Dont worry I will pack your gear at the back of trailer then "forget" to lock it between coomera and brissie. 8O :wink:

    Catch you later

Apparently the fishing is really good and should be moreso because of the weather conditions. Heres hoping as I wouldnt mind catching a feed of fish.

    a 12ft rod is fine.

    rock fishing at indian heads, rest is fishing in gutters in the surf.

    as for bait, depends what you want to fish for.
    i have found that-
    whiting and dart take worms or pippies from the beach
    tailor and flathead take pillies or mullet fillets
    tailor dart and bream take whitebait

    [/b][/quote] Mate not that i have ever been to Fraser, but I would assume it would be beach fishing therefore would be dependant on the rod you are taking. I am packing 3 standard rods for the children and myself. I have a fair bit of tackle, including the star sinkers which is good dependant on the surf conditions. Bait once again I will assume there will be a place to get it before we head onto the island and they are usually a good source for the best type. 1 MORE SLEEP TO GO,

    Regards

    Stevo your gear will be safe only joking about leaving it behind

    Also ONLY HALF A SLEEP TO GO, The guys on the coast will be a 3am start. Also Frazer is surf fishing so I would suggest surf rods. Aparantly the fishing is really good as the sun is coming up so 5:00 - 5:30am start.

    Cheers
