I got all chubby in the pants reading that prediction on swell net this morning. Only nut-cases will take on the East Coast with that amount of size but it should (hopefully) see some nice 4 footers roll into Westernport – so long as there isn’t too much west in it.

From 1962 - Qld - Currumbin Alley (Not always the closest in later years)
From 1994 - NSW - Bower (still along way from Castle Hill but worth the drive)
From 2007 - Qld - Moffats (Just around the corner).

Was just looking at Wannasurf and the glowing endorsement for Bondi makes me want to go there. Hang on I did today and it was absolutely lame as usual.

A regional classic- don't miss it. Holds up to 8ft. Heavy :lol: :lol: :lol:
What kind of stuff are these people on.

I need all the help I can get, only thing I ever the catch is a fcuking cold! :lol:
Ask them if they know Lee Darroch or any of the old Jacksons Track mob.

Anyway of there's a lot of rain the Mitchell River will flush some monster carp out into the Lakes, easy pickings with a spear. :)

Good ol' Sandpatch eh Mozzie? Hows those bloody stairs........
legs twinged just thinking about them... what is there? 900 odd at about a 45deg grade.
haven't had much cause to climb them of late - been a shocking stretch of sou-easterlies over summer... improved of late but not when I am home it seems!
Mate, after this shark attack, the stairs seem a little tame now huh?
