I'm terribly concerned we may run low on beer ...rasoning would be a terrible thing!

I somehow don't think we'd ever run out of tales.

Oh, and @TimeRider has finally said yes to attending this year.

Unlike!

At present ..like right now windy is saying Saturday SE 4knots...10 ks and then swinging tho the north 5knots about 2 pm which would suit a haul through to the pass and fish kingi's and cod in the pass or head up the eastern side of Durville ...

NOW I'm sure this will change !! So I would really like those who are going to invest serious $$$ in fuel and time to get here to to be sure that they know this weekend is a lottery! It could go epic and we get a window of weather or it could go shithouse and we have road closures and slips etc after this dry spell. Which may well mean we are stuck at okiwi or your bunking at mine in Nelson!

Just be sure you know what your getting into please! We can always do an April weekend or just next year ...I just don't want anyone to be dissapointed or put out ....We will be doing this again next year so if you uming and erring save your pennies and come next time would be my advice!

Hang on @stingray, You better get this weather sorted out... I have given the boy the day off school on Friday, I have fixed up the long line for the kayak shiny new buoys too. I even went and bought a roof rack to get the Yak to Okiwi. Now you tell us you can't guarantee the weather for the weekend? geeze what a blimin tease.

Plan for Thursday evening... Get tucker bait n beer.. Hockey at 630..get goalies details see if hes any good.. Leave pack truck head to okiwi by say 830pm ....now if any nelsonite wants to travel ahead pick up the keys from my pad / Lisa...

Stage one complete... Friday well see who is about will stash house keys for travellers go for a quick fish welcome guests.. Wind should ease go fishing or set jako traps and enjoy a beer. Welcome rest of members drink water plan Saturdays adventure... Any questions.. Sunday looks mint Saturday mixed bag morning rough easing on the afty..honestly I know we will see fish caught how good buggered if I know... @gadgetman your yak is tucked away safe as... come for pickup as and when you want..

I dont give a flying rat`s arse what the weather does, I am going to be there to see Joe drink WATER

[Ground Control]

I’ve just back to civilisation after a week down the Sounds and had a blast , great weather , plenty of fish and numerous Possums feel to the mighty Ruger .22
Hope the weather holds for you guys this weekend, fingers crossed .

This morning forecast Saturday average Sunday screaming southerly ...less than ideal

[stingray]

Friday looks gusty ..if we can punch out to the islands we can shelter there or up squally, Saturday improves throughout the day with the wind swinging from northeast to a southerly ...which Sunday picks up to a semi gale ..perfect! ..I'm packing beer tucker surfcasters and even a few warm cloths.

If your coming fishing best stop at your local fish shop and grab some for the trip home ...if your coming for yarns beer sight seeing and loosing gear surfcasting ...well you will be well pleased with this event!

[Philipo]

Just had a confab with Pengy ( who would know more about the sea than than "Mr Penguin" aye ) and with the forecast looking so shit I've decided to bail sorry boys, I just rang up & got my flights refunded so there's nearly $400 plus spending money back in me pocket.

Murphies law alright, but have fun guys & I'll rain check in for the next one, Chur

I figure there is going to be weather either way.
So why not go spend some time with some good company and maybe get some fish.
