I got out in the tinny today but they seriously need to dredge it. The waves are not fun in or out, regardless of the tide and swell
Any alternative ramps to use?
Emily Jorgensen lucky we didn’t go up, wouldn’t have been able to go fishing... Feel sorry for these blokes though^
Holy shit Craig Chambers you would not get out would you? How long it been like that for?
Are you still down there Craig? Did not see your boat there the other day. I suppose it would be quiet for you at the moment,

We’re booked to come back in September so hopefully hubby can jump on a charter again!
It’s still a beautiful place. We would love to come back up and join you on another charter.
Loved our trip last Easter look forward to more fishing 🎣
Couple of quick pics from today's Reef Charter. Customers doing well hooking up on some nice size morwong and snapper on the Hunter then heading out on the sand for some Flathead which were very quiet today. Well done to all #merimbula #bermagui #Eden #tathra #fishingcharter #Rathlin #sapphirecoast #flathead #snapper #Morwong #reef
