It's only one of the biggest fishing comps around Brisbane each year. I go most years.. it's worth taking your kids to it too, they lay on entertainment in the evenings too. to keep the young uns happy ( bouncy castles and such) .it usually starts friday evening, if you want to join the comp, signing on is usually before 7 or 8pm ( I haven't got a form on me).. but forms can be picked up down there.
The comp attracts a few thousand every year.. I didn't get to go to it last year, the only year I missed going.
(11-14th - Moreton Bay & Offshore Family Fishing Challenge. Annual fishing competition. Redland Bay - in hotel grounds. Ph: 0418 192 139 (Geoff Reinke))

are you doing the redland comp?
I usually do the manly one too. on labour day.. but I couldn't find the forms, and it looked if it was cancelled this year.. was it? .. even phoned someone up over there... and she was no help what so ever... so if tit happened this year , they lost some people who usually enter it every year

Dunno Downie, cant comment, although my brother knows Brownie.
Pass on the Redlands one, we're planning to go over & anchor off north end of South Straddie for the weekend, up around the Bedrooms, like I said, with luck everyone will be up doing the comp & we'll have a deserted beach.
Good luck in the comp! Give the Mayor a kiss from me :scared:

What is it with homesickness this week?! I have been feeling bad too. Maybe its cos the sun is shining in Essex and I know my lovely garden is sat there with someone else enjoying it!
However we have rented a house for a big group of us in Portsea to celebrate the Queen's birthday so hopefully it won't rain ALL weekend!
