Lots of fun at Lucinda.
Harry and his apprentice.
Charters Towers Post office.
Chaters Towers Weir.
Camp site at Threasa dam.
We left Tulley Heads in early July.We were with Sandy and Graeme the fishing improved and we caught lots of fish mainly mackarel. Our next stop was back to Lucinda for another 10 days. We caught up with a few friends from our last visit and met some new ones. Our neighbour Harry spent most of his fishing from the beach mainly fishing for whiting and flathead. I picked some useful tips in gathering bait and beach fishing. Thanks Harry, buy the way you make a mean Corn beef and vegie's. The boat fishing was also good with Deb catching a nice cod and bream and I caught a good size barred grunter.The local Prawn boat arrived at the dock with fresh tiger prawns $ 10.00 per kilo what great value we had a feast. We left lucinda and headed in land to Charters Towers a old gold mine with lots of history. We stayed for two days and did all the tourist things. Our next stop was Threasa dam just out of Claremont what a great spot. Our camp spot was in a great location over looking the dam with our own camp fire. We stayed for three days but could have stayed much longer. We are currently staying at Lake Maraboon for the week. Sandy and Greame will also meet up with us on Sunday. Hopefully we will catch some Red Claw !!!! Cheers Deb and Trev.
