I hate them.
....millions of the @#$%s off Manly. Hows it at Wello, VP, Goldie, Caloundra.??
None around the corner at Thorneside on Wednesday/Thursday. Still plenty of weed though!
I sailed from 1pm after the rain til 4pm at Manly. OMG! the first time I had to come in as I got stung on the elbow and knee. The jellies were so thick that if you came off your board you were doing to get stung. They also constantly hit your fin as you tried to sail. 2nd sail one of the guys at Manly stated stick to rose Bay and it should be better. Thanks for that advice mate. There were definitely less of them in the bay.
Yeah lots at wello today also.
Lots of jellies and weed, made jumping in to clear the weed from the fin an interesting operation!
A mate of mine goes shark fishing off Green Island (he catches plenty btw) and took these photo's of what's on its way to us....
that is just incredible . Makes me feel better about being unable to windsurf for a while though
I had a go on my 120ltr saturday arvo and fell into a thick patch just out the front of RQ and got instantly stung from head to toe, one of the stings hurt quite a bit felt like someone poured hot water on my arm. I ended up kneeling on my board until I drifted out of them as I wasnt keen on waterstarting and uphauling a smaller board in choppy conditions seemed risky as well. Think I,ll stick to the RSX while there around.
Sounds painful Cammd. Might chuck the wetsuit in the kit if there is any wind from the low coming in.
Had few hop on board during tacks on Sunday. It took a while to shake the largest off that metre wide nose, and I stepped on another when putting my back foot in the strap - it stung me! little bastard. Still came out in front: 70cm fin 300+ vs jellies 1. Ha!
holy F@#kin sh1t Scot !!!
What makes you think they're comming this way ? Maybe the big SEster will push them north..away ! ????

They were thick like the photos above at Redcliffe a few weeks ago. They're only juveniles the size of an apple. Shoal size is limited too, just sail through and out the other side. They don't slow you up much.
I was at Wello last weekend, no where near as bad as manly. I only seen 2 and a half jellys, one got hit by a boat and was cut in half. Ha Ha... serves you right you Little @#$%^& 
Sailed at Manly this arvo and the jellyfish were few are far between. Southerlies must have blown them away.
.(for now) They are however still billions of the f@#kers out at Green Island.Not a good place to break a mast and have to paddle back from.(Eh Leo).
.Good on that Laser sailor who towed him back.
Awesome news, I'm packing the car for an afternoon session at Manly. Hard luck for Leo, not nice to break kit out back at the best of times, let alone when the scurge is about.
