Keep your boat. If you take that one out of the Tweed bar then there's nothing to trouble it up here. Lots of close reef bommies and islands around Mackay. Fuel usage/range might be your only concern with the big 2 banger, there is a lot of inshore and offshore options. You can't go too far up the river, imagine tweed bar to the bridge is about all there is accessible all tides. Almost all creeks are very shallow and pretty short like Cudgen creek. More to find exploring the coast.

I have a 4.1 and really need a 4.8+ to make the most of this coastline. Lots of little creeks with no land access. Check out Google earth to see what I mean.

Okay, to all our Mackay members. Cath's employer has given us  1 months rental assistance to find a permanent place. That's great but we're struggling to find somewhere for a month that will take a dog also. Will probably just end up forgoing this offer and trying to find a permanent rental ASAP. If anybody does however know of any possibilities for us that first month can you PM me please. I've thought of a cabin at the Big 4 there which is pet friendly, but makes it hard if I'm out looking for both a place to live and work with a dog in tow :D :D

Mate,  what sort,  how big is ya dog? We've got a fenced yard but not huge but we aer near the beach. So we may be able to dog sit during the week, so to speak. One side of fence is not overly high so if hes a jumper may not be suitable. Also depending on footy results may head to Townsville if Cowboys are playing home finals but that would only be weekends.
Just a thought & offer is there

Hey Moggy,

That's an awesome offer, but I think we're leaning to just trying to organise a house we can move straight into. If you dont mind, I might send you a few houses from the net that Grab our interest and get your opinion on location etc?????
Can you PM me your email??

Thanks Dave

So....are you up here yet? I was just down near Mackay for the weekend. Rolled the swag out at Kinchant Dam. Only a couple of quick sessions on the dam for 2 missed hits. Caught up with some buddies from down south over a camp fire and a few frothies. You'll be in Fishin heaven if you like to toss lures for Barra and Sootys in the fresh.
