I have every day off and a boat, just got (back) into fishing and every body is always at work.

I have, due to circumstances, at the moment every day off to do as i please.

Bought boat again(4.8mtr) so I can put it in and out of the water by myself to go fishing or just cruize around.

It is a fact that almost everybody else is at work and going all the time during the week on your lonesome is not always ideal.

For instance;

Yesterday was busted by a shark while trolling and a second pair of hands would have been very sweet.

Also I do not know that much about fishing and trying to find out more how it is done.

(this is why I joined this forum and it has been very helpfull)

Are there other people who are in the same circumstances?

I used to be able to fish any

I used to be able to fish any day that ended in a Y, but recently my circumstances have changed, so I don't get out as much.

Tony is on the money, just post when you have slots going and what you're doing and see if you get any takers.

ATM, I can fish Thursday, Friday morning, and the weekends.

I have posted for a deckie a number of times and had no problems getting someone, have met some great blokes as well. The forum is a great way to do this.

yeh i have the same problem

Wed, 2011-03-02 09:20

yeh i have the same problem go fishing any time of the week any hour of the day, but it is a great problem to have. does get a bit lonely out ther sometimes. i normally take my 4 year old son with me or ask a few mates and they normally take the day off work. is handy to have an extra pair of hands on board. weather by yourself or a mate it is always fun to be on the water.

 

thanks  rocky

mmm

 mm really, l've never had luck getting regular deckies. I had one which was great for a few months but he ended up going to Japan and that was it! Maybe its because i fish out of two rocks!

I don't like going in the ocean by myself, never know what happens. Fall overboard etc. Always handy to have a mate watch your back and provide that extra ballast to plow through the waves at WOT :)

l'm also free weekdays but not too early in the morning. Can't get up :)
