Who wants to go fishing at Groote Island ???

Ive got a chance to go to Groote Island due to my wife having a weeks enviro work up there 2nd week in December and thought id go along for some fishing with ET fishing escapes..... Problem is since Im alone i have to pay for full hire of the boat to myself.

At 1500 dollars a day for 4 days fishing its gonna hurt the hip pocket a bit... So Id be keen to get another 1, 2 or 3 guys whod be keen to come along at the same time and share the fun, fishing and the boat costs... ;)

Ive rang already and the boats available, theres accomodation available so have a think about it, youll need to organise your own flights and accomodation, and obviously no time wasters or people who are going to pull out at the last minute leaving the rest of us to pick up the tab for their share...

If I go alone Ill prob only do 2 days fishing, if more come we can do like 4 days or soemthing....

If you want more details send us a PM

Fishing opportunity of a lifetime guys ;D

My favorite spot to fish.Used to work around there on the prawn trawlers. Spent Melb cup day at the pub there, and caught some killer slimy cod around there. Would love to come but, have only just come back from Broome. Hopefully i will have a job there soon, and i can go fishing every day after work. I have a friend on the island with a boat, pm your ph no and dates your there, and i will tell him to ring you if he has a spare spot.

Spent a week on the island visiting a mate who used to work there. Cracking place, had a few memorable sessions. We tried to organise a trip out with a chap who did a bit of guiding in his spare time. Not entirely reliable, but if he is still on island, could be worth trying to look him up, as will be a lot less than $1500. I'll shoot you a PM.
