Looks like I'll be down there the 3/4/5 of Feb. I know Mechawagon is from out that way, anyone else?

Are there any good 4x4 spots out that way? even softish stuff is fine just something in case I get bored fishing :)

Also are there any crayfish or other hard shelled crawling fish down there? If so I may have to get myself some traps before I go down.

Oh, and Mecha, did they have a fridge in the cabin? must keep the coldies cold :)

Shit yes, heaps of softroader action, HEAPS of hardcore rutted mudded out tracks that would make Otis cry

Sure do, a gas one - works a bloody treat too...

Good idea to bring a esky for an ice slurry anyway which is better for beer and taking fish home

You'll need a licence but the owners can fix you up with that.

5 is the bag limit, 10 in possession and 25cm minimum length.

Sweet! :)

If you make it there one day I'll have to get you to take me down a few tracks :)

Hey Stinky, if you head out there via Coffs Harbour I can lend you my paper based topo maps - I have a good collection covering the whole styx valley..
