i love my yearly fishing trip to weipa, but i will admit that after eyeballing a few great speed runs and crystal clear freeride spots, i always feel a bit uneasy about the sharkyness and the leather handbags!



next to my nine foot fly rod!

I reckon there would be more crocs now than in the 70's.

Thats only a Goanna track. If you want to sail try Lake Pat or Lake Mcloud. I would not suggest windsurfing in the rivers.
