Tales From The Tinny

Stuck in a tree for two days and hallucinating from mozzie bites.

Blue water, Darwin Harbour, Shady Camp neaps, Daly at night and of all things - the Adelaide! There is hope fishos and they've called it...this IS your runoff!

Shady, South and Kakadu fishing well. As is the blue water in between the Westerlies. Elsewhere a struggle thanks to lack of rain. But there is hope, the Tinny boys have flogged the GPS Marks for ten $5000 MDF Charity fish in the harbour, and are leaking them this week. Just like Julian Assange!

The Tinny has infiltrated MDF HQ and accessed confidential top-secret data. The GPS marks for ten more $5000 charity Barra!! You've got five weeks left. What are you waiting for?

Blue water fishing exceptional if you can escape the wind, and now there's $20,000 of barra in the water for you to hunt. Including the GPS marks to make it even easier.

All four $5000 MDF Charity tagged Tales from the Tinny barra are now in the water! The Vic 78cm, West Arm 55cm, Leaders 85cm and the Adelaide 68cm. Listen to hear the GPS marks.

We're baaaccckkk! And despite the lack of rain there are Barra to be had!

The stakes were high out at Shady Camp, NT over the weekend. Kevin had a cunning plan, if his girlfriend Harn landed her first barra, she was a keeper!

Merry Christmas fishos! The last Tinny for the year, back on deck early 2019.

As we hurtle towards Xmas and the first monsoon, fishos go hard hunting meteries across the coast and mouths of the big rivers.

Big barra at the big mouths, and reports from across the blue water and harbours as the wet approaches.

The Government puts a $10 million offer to the NLC over Blue Mud Bay access, and the blue water fires up in earnest.

As the NLC and NTG remain at loggerheads over Blue Mud Bay access, fishing guides say the uncertainty is threatening their businesses.

Adult themes for juvenile minds. Or is it the other way around? Whichever...if you are squeamish or easily offended by repeated references to the 'sensitive' regions of the male anatomy, do not listen.

A Tinny welcome for the Japanese PM and Inpex dignitaries, fishos face lockouts as Blue Mud Bay negotiations breakdown and great barra fishing from the Tiwi's to the harbours.

The Northern Land Council has given the Government till December 4th to negotiate, or they will lock out all fishermen from up to 80 per cent of the Territory's coastline.

A fishing misadventure got serious quick for the group of lads as they headed home 'for a burger'.

The second $5000 Charity barra is in the water. Dundee boat ramp to be fixed, and bumper bluewater and barra fishing.

Fishos frustrations over the state of the Dundee boat ramp, the second busiest in the Territory, boiled over this week. Local fisherman Aaron describes the risks, Opposition leader Gary Higgins weighs in, and Fisheries Minister Ken Vowles committs to finding a solution.

NT fisherman Chris Wood didn't know what to do when he felt the box jellyfish wrap around his legs.
