Snarls over luxury kennels

By Mike Hast TEN landowners in a section of Bungower Rd, Moorooduc, will share their rural idyll with more than 65 dogs if the shire council approves an application from a veterinarian.

The vet is asking the council to approve plans for “Bark Avenue� boarding kennels at 281 Bungower Rd near Coolart Rd. Stage one will have 20 “luxury� ken-

nels and runs for large dogs and eight for small dogs. Stage two will have six kennels and runs for large dogs and 32 for medium dogs. There also will be 14 exercise yards. Other elements of the complex include a cattery, geriatric dog area, offices, vet area, storerooms and grooming room.

The 10 houses are within 500 metres of “Bark Avenue� including the home of former television producer Bob

Phillips and his wife, stage and screen star Judy Banks, who present a showbiz program on the peninsula’s radio station RPP-FM. Mr Phillips, best-known as a producer at Channel 9 for Graham Kennedy and Don Lane shows as well as Hey Hey It’s Saturday, said he and his wife were horrified when they received a letter from the shire about the plan. “We bought this property in a quiet,

rural part of Bungower Rd about 30 years ago,� he said. “The property next door has been a pleasant horse and cattle property for more than 100 years, but it’s been bought by a vet who intends to create a giant boarding kennel complex.�

Mr Phillips said they would vigorously oppose the development and be joined by near neighbours.

He was disappointed there had been

no consultation with owners of neighbouring properties. “We’re not looking forward to the noise, especially at night and early morning.�

Mr Phillips said the entrance to the kennel was inadequate as traffic along Bungower Rd would increase markedly with the opening of the freeway and the nearby on and off ramps.

All so easel for this lateral thinking artist

By Mike Hast ARTIST and illustrator Tony Barber clambered onto a chair to reach the top corner of his large painting.

Leaning in and concentrating on applying a curve of paint, he lost his balance and crashed to the floor.

Shaken and with an injured knee, he sat in a comfy chair to regain his composure and started thinking about the object of his downfall – the easel.

Why had easels remained virtually unchanged since their invention? Was there a better way to make an easel? Where would you start on such a venture?

He did some reading and found out the painter’s easel had been in use since the time of the ancient Egyptians. The Roman author Pliny the Elder wrote about easels shortly after the birth of Jesus.

Barber was astonished. Painters had used basically the same set-up for more than 2000 years.

He started a journey of invention that lasted four years and has created an easel with a device that allows a canvas or board to revolve 360 degrees and be set on any angle.

He assembles the easels in a spare room at his home in Dromana and has been knocked out by praise from artists who have bought them.

“One painter in NSW told me I’d split the atom,” he says with a smile. “Another says he is earning twice as much because he paints twice as fast and the quality has improved.”

A third, an award-winning artist who works on scraper boards, said being able to turn the easel with one hand while scratching or drawing with the other was much easier.

Red Hill artist Gavin Byrt told Barber: “The easel has changed the way I paint. Being able to adjust the canvas to maximise the light, spin the easel to paint the edges of the canvas or tip it to a horizontal position for drawing and fine detail work is an amazing change. Such a revelation.”

Barber’s journey of invention started when he asked art-

ists how the standard wooden easel could be improved.

“There were many false starts, thousands of hand-drawn blue line sketches and a wildly fluctuating shoestring budget,” he said. “Sometime I didn’t go near the project for many weeks.”

Creating the method of attaching canvases and perfecting the swivel device atop the tripod was a process of trial and error. It saw Barber haunting seven component-making workshops on the peninsula where he asked machinists to make parts of stainless steel, aluminium, hard plastics and other materials, as well as getting laser cutting and powder coating. “It was gratifying to work with these tradesmen and women. They’d see me arrive with folders of ideas and boxes of unfinished parts, ‘Oh, here comes that crazy Pommy inventor again’.

“They were so generous with their advice and encouragement.”

The finished easel is a revelation, one of those items you see and wonder why it hadn’t been done before.

Barber has a version that stands on the floor and a tabletop model used by older artists who prefer to work sitting down.

“So many people paint nowadays,” he said. “Not only professional artists, but also teachers, students, hobbyists, semi-professional, retirees and millions of people who are members of art clubs and societies.

“Each one has their own painting style, physical limitations and equipment and materials preferences.”

He said artists can work faster and the easel makes it physically easier to paint, reducing “the aches and pains artist of all ages endure”.

“You can bring any part of your canvas directly to your brush at any height, angle or position.”

Barber has set up a business to market his invention, the ARTristic easel. Details: www. artristic.com or send an email to: artristic@bigpond.com

Esplanade start WORK is due to start this week on repairing the collapsed Esplanade between Mt Martha and Safety Beach.

However, the road will not reopen until early next year, according to VicRoads’ program delivery manager metro south east, Michael Barker.

He said VicRoads would follow “all recommendations as outlined in the Cultural Heritage Management Plan (CHMP)”.

Mr Barker did not respond to questions from The News about how the cultural heritage management plan would affect the reconstruction or what artefacts were being protected.

Mornington MP David Morris the repairs would involve rock placement, drainage and pavement works and a new guardrail, “with revegetation to be undertaken during the appropriate weather conditions”.

Joshua waves his way to a win THE waves of Gunnamatta lived up to their reputation for Saturday’s Peninsula Surfriders’ Club contest.

Home break for the club, the waves of the incoming tide were groomed by a light north-easterly as they broke on a bank near the second car park.

The conditions set up some tight surfing between the club’s foremost riders, but it was Joshua Hallam (pictured) who took out the honours.

A clue to Hallam’s form was given to his competitors during the semi-finals when he scored a perfect 10.

“The decision was made early to hold the contest on the right-hand rip bowl and we had pumping waves from the start right up until about 1pm when the tide bottomed out,” club president Adam Morris said.

“It was another great day down at the beach once the clouds burnt off and I’d say the earlier open rounds had some of the better waves we have had for a contest in a long time.

“Unfortunately for all final divisions, a mix of the tide and the onshore wind made conditions tricky.”

Morris, who was eliminated during the quarter finals, said Forrest Brothes also showed good form.

“But Hallam was too good in the final, scoring his second Open A division win.”

The club’s next aggregate contest will be in late February or early March although a single-fin contest will be held on Australia Day. For contest details and other PSC news go to www.psc.org.au or www. facebook.com/peninsula.surfriders Keith Platt

Group effort opens beach to all

By Keith Platt IN just a year, the Disabled Surfers Association’s Mornington Peninsula branch bank account jumped from $80 to $42,000, enabling it to buy five wheelchairs that can be used on the beach.

The wide-tyred wheelchairs will be used at two disabled surfing events next February and March and made available through lifesaving clubs at other times.

The disabled surfers branch was formed in November 2011 with $80 and one wheelchair from the association’s national body.

The volunteer committee included surfers, non-surfers, people with disabilities and carers.

Its plan of action included finding sponsors and training volunteers to help people with disabilities enjoy a day in the surf.

The March event saw 20 participants hit the water with the aid of 226 volunteers.

Branch secretary Ash Gardner said the group expects up to 90 participants wanting to experience the waves, which means at least 400 volunteers.

“People can volunteer in the water or on the beach. There are no skills necessary and it’s not overly physical. If you have the ability to smile and cheer – that’s all you need,” Mr Gardner said.

“Aside from beach flags, a small marquee and some surfboard aids, we also have the majority of equipment we need to run our events.”

Meanwhile, beach wheelchairs have already been stationed at Pt Leo and Dromana lifesaving clubs with ar-

rangements being made for four more to be distributed throughout the peninsula.

The Mornington Peninsula branch was the 15th branch of the Disabled Surfers Association of Australia, started in NSW in 1986 to enable injured surfers to get back into surfing.

“However, it was soon realised that it should be open to anyone with a disability,” peninsula branch treasurer John Bowers said.

“Our function is to provide a safe surfing experience for disabled people,

giving them access to what we take for granted.

“We put smiles on dials of participants and volunteers alike; the community involvement and the response of the participants and families on event days guarantee it.”

Mr Bowers said adding in the cost of donated goods brought the association’s first year budget to $50,000.

“Our major sponsors have been generous and extremely helpful, starting with a letter I dropped in to Bernie Taylor of the Grand Hotel Mornington.

I couldn’t believe he called for a meeting just after I delivered the letter.”

Since that initial offer of support, money for the wheelchairs has come from Mornington Peninsula Shire, the RACV and Railway Signalling Services. A trailer for equipment came from Auswide Trailers and Nepean Waste, with Progress Signs adding sponsor logos.

Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors Frank Martin, Bev Colomb, Anne Shaw and Bill Goodrem volunteered for the first surfing event at Pt Leo.

Cr Martin, as mayor, gave the association a large part of the profits raised at the mayoral annual dinner.

“We are planning with the council as part of our adopt-a-beach program to place our wheelchairs across the peninsula for year-round access,” Mr Bowers said.

Donations from the Mt Martha, Balnarring and Hastings branches of the Bendigo Bank have been used to buy rash vests, marquees, surf aids, surfboards and special wetsuit socks that are specially made to give total body cover for participants with severe disabilities.

“Grade six pupils at The Peninsula School ran a fete and donated funds for us to buy special soft surfboards for our events,” Mr Bowers said.

He said Pt Leo Life Saving Club had opened its doors on event days for use by the branch, and negotiations were underway with the Department of Sustainability and Environment to create easier access to the club.

The Pt Leo Foreshore Committee donated gate receipts on event days and help from the commercial surfing community came from Simon Duff of Mornington Peninsula Surf School, Peninsula Surf Centre and Trigger Bros.

The first of two disabled surfing events next year runs 9am-1pm at Pt Leo on Saturday 9 February. Volunteers should take along a wetsuit if available. Registration starts at 8am.

Shutdown at Gunnamatta

By Keith Platt THE quality of water being discharged through the sewage outfall at Gunnamatta will drop this week while Melbourne Water works on its latest treatment equipment.

The 350 million litres a day discharge will be Class C, below the purity that has been pumped into the ocean since new processes came on line in July.

“A three- to four-day shutdown of the new advanced tertiary treatment stage at ETP [Eastern Treatment Plant, near Carrum] is required in November to undertake important works on site,” general manager of asset planning Paul Pretto said.

He said the plant’s $418 million upgrade was “nearing completion”.

“The upgrade will add an advanced tertiary stage to the sewage treatment process at ETP; the plant, originally built in 1975, will be transformed into one of the most sophisticated largescale sewage treatment facilities in the world.”

Environmentalists who have battled for decades for the outfall discharge to be cleaned up, will now focus on ending the outfall altogether.

They say the discharge of treated water into the sea at a national park is harmful to the marine environment.

Meanwhile, lower quality water from other peninsula sewage treatment plants will continue to be discharged at Gunnamatta.

“South East Water is also undertaking tertiary upgrades to its treatment plants at Mt Martha, Boneo and Somers, which discharge to Bass Strait via the same pipeline as ETP. The upgrades are expected to be completed in the second half of 2013,” Dr Pretto said.

Commissioning of the advanced treatment stage began in July “and has resulted in a progres-

sive improvement in the quality of water supplied to recycled water customers and water discharged at the plant’s outfall at Boags Rocks [near Gunnamatta]”.

“This has had a visible and positive impact on the marine environment at the outfall at Boags Rocks. Noticeable benefits include less colour, foam, and better water clarity.

“We expect to meet our environmental targets by the end of the year and begin supplying Class A standard recycled water in 2013.”

Drr Pretto said the planned shutdown would have no impact on the supply of Class C recycled water “however customers and observers at the Boags Rocks outfall may notice a temporary change in water quality back to conditions as they were before commissioning of ETP tertiary upgrade project began in July this year”.

Melbourne Water will continue to meet its EPA licence requirements throughout the shutdown, and is keeping EPA Victoria informed.

The upgrade will add an advanced tertiary stage to the sewage treatment process.

It is providing significant environmental benefits by improving the quality of the plant’s discharge at Boags Rocks on the Mornington Peninsula and increasing the standard of recycled water produced at the plant, Dr Pretto said Once completed, the plant will treat more than 100 billion litres of wastewater to Class A recycled water standard each year.

Major construction works to build the new advanced tertiary treatment stage began in early 2010 and were completed midyear.

The plant is expected to be fully operational later this year with Class A recycled water available progressively down the South East Outfall pipeline from mid-2013.

Woodland protected

By Mike Hast AN independent planning panel has recommended minimum lot sizes of 2000 square metres in Mt Eliza’s Woodland precinct and 1300sqm on street corners.

For almost a decade, the shire has been trying to restrict subdivision of about 1600 big blocks in the area bounded by Nepean Hwy, Humphries, Moorooduc and Canadian Bay roads.

Since September 2003, it has received many applications to subdivide, but has not had a planning scheme to limit development.

Some landowners have taken the shire to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal, which has refused some plans, but approved others.

The issue has divided Woodland residents and seen the formation of two groups – Mt Eliza Woodland Residents Association, formed in late 2004 to oppose subdivision, and Growing Our Community, formed in mid-2011 to promote it.

It also has seen two attempts to set mandatory controls. The first, known as C87, was thrown out by then Planning Minister Justin Madden in December 2009 after it had sat on his desk for more than two years.

The shire restarted the process in March last year when it asked Planning Minister Matthew Guy to help it protect Woodland via a design and development overlay (DDO).

Mr Guy approved interim protection earlier this year while the process was underway.

The interim order expired at the end

of September, but has been extended.

More than 420 submissions to C162 as it is now known were received by the independent panel, which sent its report to the shire earlier this month.

The report sets minimum lot sizes of 2000sqm and 1300sqm on corner blocks. The council is likely to consider the report in December and then send its decision to Mr Guy for final approval.

The recommendations are unlikely to satisfy either Woodland group and there is no certainty the council will agree to the 1300sqm corner block limit on about 94 properties.

The shire wanted minimum lot sizes of 2500sqm for properties not on corners.

There are 124 blocks of about 4000sqm and 96 of about 5000sqm.

Block size was set many years ago when the area was unsewered. Planners decided big blocks were needed so septic tanks functioned properly in the poor soil that did not allow dispersion.

Other recommendations support stronger vegetation controls in the heavily treed precinct and greater enforcement of planning controls.

Deborah Haydon of the residents association said she was pleased the panel report had recommended minimum lot sizes.

“We were worried the planning amendment was going to be thrown out again,” she said.

Ms Haydon said 88-90 per cent of Woodland residents supported “our association and what we’ve been trying to do”.

She was concerned about develop-

ment of corner blocks. “There has already been a subdivision in Winona Rd at the entrance to Woodland, which doesn’t present a good picture.”

The association was prepared to accept the 2000sqm size “the same as in Tower Rd”, she said.

Per Carlsen of Growing Our Community said the panel report was “a political report”.

“What has changed since the previous panel report was rejected? The government,” he said.

Mr Carlsen said the group would meet Opposition planning spokesman Brian Tee on Thursday “and we’ll see what he can do”.

The group had wanted a performance-based planning amendment not a prescriptive one.

“Banning subdivisions smaller than 2000sqm will not solve the problems of ensuring Mt Eliza remains a sustainable community within a social, environmental and economic context.”

He said it was vital older people were allowed to remain in the community and young families can afford to move into the area.

Former Mt Eliza councillor Leigh Eustace, who lobbied strongly to bring in minimum lot sizes before and during his four years on the council, said it was pleasing the panel had “acknowledged Woodland needed protection and recognised mandatory controls as the best way to provide this protection”.

He was against the subdivision of corner blocks.

The flying mum

By Mike Hast MUM-of-two Debs Blanco threw herself out of what she said was “a perfectly good aircraft” on Sunday.

Fortunately, she was attached to tandem skydiving instructor Cody Bekkerus of Skydive the Beach Melbourne as the pair plummeted to earth over St Kilda Beach (pictured).

“It was terrifying and exhilarating, amazing and petrifying,” the 36-yearold veterinary nurse of Mt Eliza said on Monday when she had regained her equilibrium and was looking after sons Finley, 3, and Tyler, eight months.

“You’ll see photos of me screaming, but no sound came from my mouth.”

It was a big day for the 17 mums who jumped at St Kilda.

The tension was made greater when jumpers were delayed for up to six hours due to cloud cover. Ms Blanco was meant to jump at about 11am, but did not go until 5pm.

“I didn’t eat or drink anything while waiting,” she said with a laugh.

Ms Blanco was one of 36 mothers – dubbed the “Mother Jumpers” – who dived out of planes in various parts of

Australia on the weekend as the first major fundraiser for a new not-forprofit organisation, Support for Mums.

The group helps mums and their families through crises such as an ill child or perinatal depression.

“I jumped because as a mum I know how tough times can get, and how hard it can be to ask for or accept help. Raising awareness and money will help so many mums get the help, and feel the love, they deserve,” she said.

Watching her parachute to earth was husband Simon Blanco, the two boys and friends.

“Simon said I was nuts, but was proud of me,” she said.

The intrepid jumper has form, although not since she was in her 20s.

“I did a 111-metre bungee jump at the Zambezi River in Africa, whitewater rafting on the Zambezi as well as in Bali and New Zealand,” she said.

After the jump on Sunday, Ms Blanco said she felt six foot tall.

She has already raised more than $1300 and is hoping for more donations. Details on the internet at mycause.com.au/page/54915

Thar they blow: Dolphin Research Instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sue Mason, right, can recognise â&#x20AC;&#x153;herâ&#x20AC;? dolphins by the shape of their fins.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Luckyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; researcher knows her dolphins

By Keith Platt SUE Mason counts herself as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;lucky researcherâ&#x20AC;?. The common dolphins she studies live in a relatively small, defined area of Port Phillip while other researchers must ply the oceans tracking super pods of the same species.

No one knows when the short-beaked common dolphins called Port Phillip home, but ongoing studies by Ms Mason and the Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute have shown that at least one female is already a grandmother.

Ms Mason is regularly seen zigzagging in the instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boat within sight

of the shore between Safety Beach and Frankston to find the dolphin pod.

She photographs them constantly and knows each of the 15 dolphins by sight.

The institute and Ms Mason also keep track of Port Phillipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estimated 120 resident bottlenose dolphins and another five that seem to have taken up residence in Western Port.

To make identification easy, Ms Mason names the dolphins from marks on their dorsal fin, such as Top Notch, Square Notch, Tall Fin and Almost Clean Fin. Aerial and Esther (who appears to perform on cue for the camera) are an-

other two well-known members of the pod.

Ms Mason told a meeting in Frankston to celebrate the instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 21st anniversary that the welfare of the dolphins could be gauged by the condition of their skin.

Scars on the fin of Aerialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s calf showed it had been hit by a boatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s propeller; seven years later that same calf had become a mother.

Early in 2011 Ms Mason became concerned when photographs showed severe skin lesions on two dolphins. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We saw dolphins with a lot of spots, but we now know that can be quite normal,â&#x20AC;? she said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;They can occur because of environmental changes and the ending of the drought could have been one of the reasons.â&#x20AC;?

The Department of Sustainability and Environment provided money for extra research and Ms Mason noted the lesions seen on Round Notch on 1 September had almost gone by the following month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The dolphins are not dying; they get a few spots, but heal up. There is no behavioural change.â&#x20AC;?

Ms Mason estimated that lesions on dolphins healed â&#x20AC;&#x153;300 times faster than they do on humansâ&#x20AC;?.

The lesions on dolphins presented

The ambassadors, pictured with the instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education director Many Robertson, are Isobel Duggan, Hannah Morgan, Ella Whistlecroft and Bella Fenton. They help present the instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;i sea, i careâ&#x20AC;? message to the rest of the school.

The school ambassador program has been running for six years, with more than 500 ambassadors at more than 100 schools.

The four Kunyung ambassadors spoke earlier this month at the instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 21st anniversary meeting at Frankston.

Tracing history on a wave

By Keith Platt PHIL Jarratt knows a bit about the surf culture in Australia and overseas.

A prolific writer, Jarratt has for nearly four decades chronicled the ups and downs of surfing, both from the view of a participant and observer.

His latest book attempts to bring the disparate parts of the surfing culture together, from the disorganised to the organised.

He does not shy away from the seedier sides of what can easily be seen as a separate, parallel culture as he traces its origins and growth in the Australian psyche.

With the vast majority of the Australian population living along the continentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eastern and southern seaboards, it is really the beach, rather than the bush, that represents modern Australian.

Based in Noosa, Jarratt believes his Surfing Australia â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A complete history of Surfboard riding in Australia provides the first detailed account of surfing in Australia.

It follows more than a dozen other books he has written about â&#x20AC;&#x153;surfingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s development as a sport, lifestyle and industryâ&#x20AC;?.

Surf beaches and areas that revolve around surfing get a mention through the exploits of homegrown surfers.

Jarratt said he wanted to make the book accessible to ordinary surfers like himself (he once made the final of a NSW schoolboysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; event), and to this end one of the appendices of the book is the most comprehensive compendium of Australian contest results ever compiled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I never found that schoolboyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s result with my name in it,â&#x20AC;? Jarratt said.

Among the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula surfers who get a mention are former administrators Rob McCartney, Simon Kellett and John Collins; competitors include Carol Watt, Mick Parkinson, Phil Trigger,

Looking back: Phil Jarratt is in familiar waters with his latest book about surfing in Australia.

Rob Licciardo, Warren Partington, Paul Trigger, Gary Burns, Ian Cochrane, Mick Pierce, Phil Coates, Ian Portingale, Alan Tibballs, Peppi Anglis, John Clatworthy, Gary Taylor, Scott Abbott, John Mason, Phil Antonie, Tony Reid, Leigh McClure, Simon Forward, Darren Watson, Mark

Walker, Jan Dunton, Andy Carter, Ray Mathews and Ryan Chalmers.

Peninsula Surfriders Club, Mornington Peninsula Bodyboard Club and the Maladiction Longboarders Club also rate a few paragraphs.

Surfing Australia is a coffee table book with more than 150 photographs

and forewords by multiple world champion surfers Layne Beachley and Mark Richards.

It covers surfingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pioneering years, from the repeal of the surf bathing prohibition, through the first attempts at standing on surfboards to demonstrations by Hawaiian Duke

Kahanamoku during the First World War, then on through the paddleboard years to the introduction of the malibu performance surfboard in 1956.

The book recounts the years of the surfing boom and the development of competitive boardriding leading to Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dominance in the professional era. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I developed this history in conjunction with the governing body of the sport, Surfing Australia, which celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2013, but when I started to write it I realised I had to explain why a bunch of free spirits who rode the waves had felt the need to get organised, and that meant going right back to the introduction of the surfboard,â&#x20AC;? Jarratt said.

He says that while the book details the careers of champions from Midget Farrelly (1964) to Stephanie Gilmore (2012), it also covers the grass roots of the sport, telling the story of how champion clubs developed from car pools, and inter-club meets often ended in brawls on the beach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Surfing Australia is doing a great job of working in the corporate world to take our sport mainstream, and possibly to the Olympics, but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to sanitise the colourful aspects that have helped create the culture and, to its credit, Surfing Australia didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do that either.â&#x20AC;?

Jarratt, former editor of Tracks magazine and Australian Surfers Journal, also wrote The Wave Game (1977), Mr Sunset (1997), The Mountain & The Wave (2006), Kelly Slater: For The Love (with Slater, 2008), Salts & Suits (2010) and Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hottest 100 Surfing Legends (2011).

The Victorian launch of Phil Jarrattâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Surfing Australia â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A complete history of Surfboard riding in Australia will be at Peninsula Surf, 835 Nepean Highway, Mornington, at 5.30pm on 6 December.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Eagleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; moves from sewage to desal THE former Mornington Peninsulabased Clean Ocean Foundation plans to keep an â&#x20AC;&#x153;eagle eye on pollutionâ&#x20AC;? along Bass Coast.

The foundation is now based in Wonthaggi under the guidance of new CEO John Gemmill.

Former CEO James Clark-Kennedy was told by letter in July that his services were no longer required, the day

after its committee had decided the organisation should be wound up.

The foundation appears to have survived the early reports of its demise, regrouped and moved the point of its focus from the sewage outfall at Gunnamatta to predicted problems caused by the desalination plant near Kilcunda as well as other ocean sewage outfalls.

Mr Gemmill says the foundation will

run a â&#x20AC;&#x153;independent community-based monitoring program on the marine environment in January-February 2013â&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the assistance of the research vessel SV Pelican, scuba divers from SEAL Diving and community volunteers under the direction of respected marine scientists, the program will use robust scientific methods including GPS-synchronised underwater photo

Devilbend open but doubts remain

By Mike Hast DEVILBEND Reserve was officially opened on Saturday 17 November, but the battle between environmentalists, government and fishing groups is far from over.

Parks Victoria’s newest reserve was opened by Water Minister Peter Walsh, bringing to fruition more than 12 years of planning and negotiation.

Now called Devilbend Natural Features Reserve, the 1000-hectare reserve has an entrance gateway, asphalt entrance road, sealed car park, picnic and barbecue facilities, walking tracks and a boardwalk.

Controversially, there are two fishing platforms and the 14,600-megalitre reservoir (an Olympic pool holds one megalitre) was stocked with 5000 brown and 5000 rainbow trout of “catchable” size by the Department of Primary Industries in September.

DPI secretly released trout fingerlings in the reservoir more than two years ago, many of which were eaten by native perch.

The Devilbend Foundation, a coalition of 35 peninsula, state and national environment groups representing 60,000 members and supporters in Victoria, has for more than 10 years been trying to dissuade the government from allowing recreational fishing in the reserve as well as horse riding.

The foundation has consistently said allowing recreational fishing would compromise the natural values of the reserve.

Former foundation president Roger Richards, also a member of Birdlife

Australia, stated two years ago an Arthur Rylah Institute study commissioned by Parks Victoria that detailed the detrimental effects of stocking the reservoir with trout had been ignored

by DPI. Trout compete for the same invertebrate food as the endangered bluebilled duck and other vulnerable water birds at Devilbend, he said.

Competing interests of anglers and environmentalists were on display during the opening.

During official proceedings – which included speeches by Mr Walsh, Hastings MP Neale Burgess, Parks Victoria’s Chris Hardman, and Parks Victoria board chair Andrew Fairley – several members made pointed statements criticising authorities for allowing fishing in the reserve.

As if to underline foundation concerns about reserve visitors affecting the flora and fauna “lifeboat”, at least one angler was ordered by a Parks Victoria ranger to leave a no-go area.

The day after the opening a person in an inflatable dinghy was spotted on the reservoir, which is against reserve rules.

The Devilbend Foundation has called on the state government to bring in tougher rules to police the reserve.

The News understands the rules are being drafted, but have not yet been approved by the Department of Sustainability and Environment.

At the opening, Peter Walsh said: “This is the first time the public has had access to this site since it was formally transferred to the Crown in

2006, after the reserve was decommissioned as a water supply facility.

“As well as improving fishing access to the site, DPI has stocked the reservoir with brown trout and rainbow trout, boosting recreational fishing opportunities in time for the opening.

“This is a wonderful opportunity for the public to get out in nature and enjoy this great new reserve – and hopefully land a fish.”

Mr Walsh acknowledged the many stakeholders and community groups that had contributed to the planning of the reserve, including the Devilbend Foundation, the Friends of Daangean Point, Bunurong Land Council, VRFish, peninsula angling clubs and the Future Fish Foundation.

“The Devilbend Foundation and its affiliated community groups have campaigned for many years to ensure the planning would protect the natural values of the reserve,” Mr Walsh said.

Neale Burgess said visitors could enjoy direct access to the water’s edge with extensive walking tracks and a boardwalk.

“The area of the reserve available for park visitors to explore has increased sixfold, with an additional 30 hectares being opened up,” he said.

Kennel plan upsets the neighbours Properties near the kennel would be devalued.

He said information provided by the shire council was inadequate. There was nothing about the kennel’s operating hours, no details of signs or any proposed further development.

“Have planning regulations been varied to accommodate a commercial development of this nature in the existing green wedge zone?”

Mr Phillips claimed the previous owners of 281 Bungower Rd had been told by the shire they could not develop the property or erect other buildings on the property.

He said the area was prone to flooding and no

properties had mains water or sewage.

“We had a meeting with [federal MP] Greg Hunt last Friday and he was horrified by the proposal, saying it was out of character for the area.

He will write to the shire on our behalf.”

Planning approval for Bark Avenue is being handled by Keen Planning of Elsternwick and the plans have been created by Therian, a Queensland-based supplier to the pet boarding, veterinary, animal shelter and pound industry sectors in Australia and New Zealand.

The companies combined to create a veterinary clinic for the Lost Dogs’ Home in North Melbourne.

Bikies’ toy run

Legal centre CEO quits

MORE than 500 motorcyclists are expected to take part in Saturday’s Peninsula Toy Run. The group will leave from the car park near Frankston pier at 9.30am for the run to Rosebud Secondary College with bundles of food and new toys to donate to Food For All Christmas Giving.

“Year after year the generosity of our community amazes me. It’s not only the people who give their time and donations to take part in the ride to Rosebud, but also the businesses and residents who make donations each and every year,” organiser John Smollen said.

“It is really rewarding to help make Christmas something to remember and look forward to for people who might go without otherwise.”

PENINSULA Community Legal Centre Helen Constas has resigned after almost 30 years with the centre. The surprise announcement was made on Monday afternoon, but no reason was given for her departure.

The legal centre’s general manager of volunteers and education, Andrea Staunton, said in a short press release: “Ms Constas has now decided to pursue other adventures and has tendered her resignation. Ms Constas wishes the centre, the staff and volunteers every success in the important work they are doing. The management committee and staff would like to thank Ms Constas for her dedication and work over the many years and wish her well in her future endeavours.”

Frankston back on marina money trail

By Keith Platt FRANKSTON Council is about to again embark on a search for investors in the $300 million marina earmarked for development between Olivers Hill and Daveys Bay. Impetus for reviving the search abandoned in 2010 follows advice from council’s investment attraction facilitator Jason Sharp that Tourism Victoria’s offer to help finance the retendering the project runs out at the end of the 2012-13 financial year.

Mr Sharp’s report on this week’s council agenda says that despite abandoning the tender process in 2010, council officers continued working to gain extra time for the marina from Planning Minister Matthew Guy. “The Cultural Heritage Management Plan has also been completed with a preliminary Indigenous Land Use Agreement negotiated in principal,” Mr Sharp said.

Mr Sharp has been at the forefront of efforts to attract investment to Frankston and in September accompanied then mayor Cr Brian Cunial to China as part of a state government Super Trade Mission.

The trip had seen Frankston “rejuvenated” as an “investment destination” with “a number of investors” making contact to further discuss the marina.

In his report on the 26 November agenda, Mr Sharp said lack of response by potential investors saw the marina project put on ice.

He now wanted officers given the go ahead to “explore and promote the project without prejudice or commitment”.

“Mitigating the risks of the project for both council and potential developers was a key learning from the first tender process,” Mr Sharp said. “One of the outstanding risks is the land use agreement. Utilising council’s relationship with the indigenous landowners, a process has been entered into to deliver an agreement on behalf of any future developer. This process is almost complete.”

Mr Sharp, while explaining that council faced a $1.5-$2 million budget shortfall, said an extra $5000 was needed to cover the costs of finalising the Indigenous Land Use Agreement.

Meanwhile, Frankston Beach Association sees the marina as an “ominous threat” to nearby beaches and a potential cause of bankruptcy of developers.

“It is difficult to understand that with so much scientific and engineering evidence to indicate such a marina will result in the total erosion and destruction of the town beach, and Davey’s Bay silting up, that Frankston Council is continuing to pursue a policy for this project to proceed,” the FBA’s spring newsletter states.

“It is difficult to understand that when council’s financial advisers state that a 15-hectare marina will not be financially viable, council should advocate building a 22-hectare marina, with no evidence to show that the larger marina will be financially viable.”

War of the Worlds wows ’em PENINSULA radio station RPP-FM celebrated Halloween with a re-enactment of the Orson Wells classic War of the Worlds.

In an Australian radio first, the play was brought to life in front of a live studio audience by Steve Bastoni and John Orcsik with teachers and students from Orcsik’s school, TAFTA (The Australian Film and Television Academy).

Orcsik, whose TV career started with Cop Shop, said reviving the 74-yearold radio play was a unique and rare experience for the audience and the actors.

“Today we concentrate on the visual aspect so much that the vocal quali-

ties have gone,” he said. “The problem is we still have to open and close our mouths to speak and I think this type of stuff is fun, but also great training. It makes you really aware of your voice what you can and can’t do.”

Phil Wall and John Wells, hosts of the RPP-FM program Friday on my Mind, were the masterminds behind the broadcast.

During the weeks leading up to the broadcast, Wall and Wells spoke live to air with Hollywood actor Ann Robinson, the female lead in the original 1953 Paramount Pictures movie version.

Ms Robinson said she was delighted the broadcast was going live-to-air

again after all these years and for the first time in Australia.

Station manager Brendon Telfer said the War of the Worlds broadcast would be the first of many radio plays to be performed and recorded by RPP using its state-of-the-art recording equipment and performance studio.

Steve Bastoni said he had never done a live radio play but was hooked.

“It’s a great opportunity for writers to have a forum for their work and audiences to enjoy it, and we have heaps of talent on the peninsula,” he said.

War of the Worlds will be replayed on 14 December between 9-11am on RPP, 98.7 and 98.3 FM.

Horses take comfort in a new line of trees

By Keith Platt MOST of us can appreciate the interaction between horse and rider. Our history reinforces the special relationship between animals and civilisation.

We’re supposed to be best of friends with dogs, while horses have carried us and our belongings across continents.

Steam trains and the horseless carriage (motor cars) lessened our reliance on four hoofed feet as a means of transport, but not our fascination with the equine brand.

Horses continue to run courses (ask any gambler) and run families (ask any parents of horse-mad children).

Peter Horobin’s family is no exception.

The Mornington-based saddler is a former jockey, the son of a jockey and has a brother (Mark) who is still light enough to continue as a jockey.

Horses are in the Horobin blood.

In 1970 Peter Horobin’s father Keith suffered a broken neck in a coal mine collapse on the New South Wales south coast. He recovered, decided life was too short, and took his wife and young family off to England hoping to pursue his passion for riding.

No longer suited for the gallops, Keith Horobin was able to find rides on steeplechasers.

After two years in the United Kingdom he took his family to Germany where there were more opportunities on the jumps track.

Finding success, the Horobins stayed seven years, with then 15-year-old Peter becoming a jockey and apprentice saddler at Passier & Son. “I was making saddles while also riding,” Horobin says while sitting in his Mornington factory. “It’s definitely given me an advantage, because not many saddlers have been riders.”

When the Horobins returned to Australia, Peter was 19 and his father was still riding steeplechasers.

Then living on the Mornington Peninsula, Peter Horobin also was still riding horses, but gave up being a jockey at 22 after “getting too heavy and having a few falls”.

He also was too busy making racing saddles for other jockeys, first from a tin shed at home in Balnarring, then a garage, followed by a double garage and then a factory in Mornington. He moved to his present saddlery in Watt Rd 12 years ago.

His son Rhys is a saddler, daughter

Horsepower: Peter Horobin is training a horse and has developed a saddle tree that forms the basis for his new breed of racing and dressage saddles.

Marlee makes fine leather handbags under the Marlee May label and wife Julie runs the office. Besides the family, there five other staff working at Peter Horobin Saddlery.

Father Keith, now 71, still trains horses and gave up trackwork just two years ago. A couple of years ago Peter Horobin took a fresh look at saddle design, which he says has remained relatively unchanged for nearly a century.

Drawing on his knowledge of riding and discussions with a horse vet, Horobin worked out a new design for the saddle tree, the shaped inner part of the saddle that spreads the load across a horse’s back. The stirrups are also attached to the tree.

Horobin says his saddle tree minimises any impediment to the horse’s

shoulder blades. His patented tree, made from nylon and strengthened with metal to allow maximum flex, is now being incorporated in racing and exercise saddles.

“The tree allows horses to stride free, which is especially important in dressage,” Horobin says. The rider has got to be comfortable for the horse, which then moves freely and naturally.

“Other trees have corners that press through the saddle padding into the horse’s back.

“No one before seems to have considered the comfort of the horse.

“The trees worked really well in dressage so I thought, why not for racing?”

Jockeys in France using the new “stride-free” saddles for trackwork reported they had made a positive dif-

ference. The horses “felt a lot lighter”.

Small handmade racing saddles can weigh as little as 400gms and cost $400-$700. The first batch of 10 racing saddles with the new tree has been made for stables near the famous Chantilly racecourse at Oise in France.

Australian trainer Gai Waterhouse has ordered 15 of the exercise model.

Other exercise saddles are being used

by Mornington trainer Pat Carey and Cranbourne trainer Michael Kent for the French import Tac De Boistron.

In the 1990s, Horobin’s handiwork provided winning seats for such track luminaries as Greg Hall, Darren Gauchi and Damien Oliver. Steven King had three different-sized Horobin saddles that he used when winning the trifecta of the Melbourne and Caulfield

A vet’s view MT Martha-based equine vet Dr John Bowers works with racehorses, mares and foals, competition horses, ponies and hacks.

Research for his masters degree looked at the affects of a tight girth on the performance of racehorses.

It also resulted in the design of a new girth that, according to Bowers, “should be developed with the new [Peter Horobin} saddle”.

“Therefore, we are looking for a venture capitalist with long arms and deep pockets. People involved would be Professor Ron Slocombe – who I did my masters work with – Peter Horobin, contacts at CSIRO textiles and me.”

Bowers says the basis of Horobin’s saddle tree design is sound.

“Current trees have two points at each end facing downwards so, if you think about it, when the muscles along the back are contracting and, coupled with the weight of the rider, forces are being placed more over four points ventrally.

“Peter’s tree should reduce point compression and distribute weight more evenly.

“It would appear that Peter’s design will have less interference with the long muscles along the back and around the top of the shoulder.

However, the proposition that it will improve the spine and lead to less problems with certain types of spondolytis is uncertain.” cups and Mackinnon Stakes aboard Let’s Elope in 1991.

“I’m swinging back to racing [after years concentrating on dressage] with these new saddles and tree,” Horobin says.

He also is about to get into the saddle, riding trackwork on an unnamed horse in which he has a half share.

Up every day at 5am, Horobin takes the horse from Kelvin Southey’s Shandion Lodge stables to Mornington Racecourse.

After a swim and a run, the fouryear-old nuzzles up to Horobin as he leads her back to her stall.

“If she runs as good as she looks, I’ll be happy,” he says, giving her a pat on the nose. “But she’s just one of a million horses that’s been bred.”

Beached seal sleeps it off FOR seals, it seems there’s nothing like a good sleep after a fine day’s fishing. The beach in front of McCrae Yacht Club was the handiest place to come ashore for an Australian fur seal that ignored the usual traffic of beach walkers and joggers.

Sleeping soundly, the seal only moved further up the beach when the wake of a passing ship washed across its tail.

Signs were put up warning of the seal’s presence and the need to keep clear.

Wildlife rescuer Craig Thomson (pictured) first spotted the seal early in the morning as it made several forays in and out of the water.

“It is a timely reminder that with the weather getting warmer, we share our beaches with wildlife and we should give them the space and respect they deserve,” he said.

“While it is common for Australian fur seals to use the beaches to rest during the day from the end of September through to April, most of

the seals are yearlings finding their independence.

“However, on occasions like today adult seals will use the beach to rest.

It is estimated this seal would weigh 120-150 kilograms.”

Appeal of dual living runs deep IF you are looking for a rural setting that offers the diversity of two homes for the extended family, this property is a must-see. The one-hectare property has a picturesque ornamental dam as the centrepiece and the areas around both homes are well maintained. Both residences have their own driveways branching off from the main entrance.

The larger, main home is a masterclass in superb country living. Built of attractive brick, it has a full-length verandah and a feature portico covering the front door. An impressive triple garage under the roof line is in the south wing. A large kitchen has striking blackwood timber cupboards and stainless-steel appliances include a wall oven and double-drawer dishwasher. Through double glass doors, the spacious living room opens into the family and dining area. Three of the four bedrooms have built-in robes and the incredible master bedroom suite has a renovated ensuite and a walk-in robe. Entertaining will be a joy in the resort-style “outdoor room” with its hardwood decking and cafe-style tinted blinds. There is an impressive list of features here, with ceiling fans, ducted heating, a built-in fridge, a barbecue and preparation area.

Recently built and council-approved, the second dwelling has its own distinct character, opting for a more traditional timber look. The verandahs that run around all sides are a delight. There are two bedrooms and a study, plus dual-entry bathroom and an equally fine blackwood timber kitchen. In the open-plan living area is air-conditioning and a wood heater. The entire property has been completed to the highest standard; you would be proud to call either home your own.

Waterfront cafe without peer

Apples and oranges

SET on the busy Point Nepean Road, this popular cafe has one of the best fitouts available. The business has a long lease and there is plenty of scope to increase trade as the business is closed one month per year and through January and February only trades five days per week. Catering agreements are in place and there is seating for 75 inside and 35 outside. The owner is willing to offer the business on a trial basis.

THIS vibrant business has an excellent position in the busy Centro Shopping Centre behind Main Street in Mornington. A proven money maker, the business is part of a wellknown franchise selling refreshing and healthy drinks, smoothies and yoghurt. For the hands on owner-operator, this well-established business should be of great interest.

MESSAGE FROM THE PREMIER

As Victorians, we live in one of the country’s most fire-prone areas, so preparing for summer means preparing for fire.

All Victorians need to be aware of the dangers of bushfires and ensure they plan well ahead of time. Planning and preparing for fire is not just for those who live in bushfire-prone areas – it’s also for anyone who plans to travel through or near those areas.

For those with homes in or around bush, coastal scrub, grass or paddocks – even if you’re in an urban area – then planning ahead and preparing your property are vital. Suburban homes, even if they are several kilometres away from risk areas, can be vulnerable to fire caused by flying embers.

There are many things you can do right now to get ready for the fire season and protect your family.

Get a relocation kit ready with important documents and essentials – mobile phones, radios, clothes and water – so you are ready when you make the decision to leave the area before a fire.

Talk to your family and others in your life about planning and preparing for the threat of fire.

If you have family, friends or neighbours who might need assistance leaving early before a fire, talk to them about how you could help.

Please remember that on hot, dry windy days, fires can start and spread quickly. Check Fire Danger Ratings and warnings at cfa.vic.gov.au. If you are unsure, you should leave.

If you are planning to travel around our great State during the fire season, there are precautions that can be taken to make your journey safer.

Check the Fire Danger Ratings for the areas you will be visiting every day, on the CFA’s website or by downloading the FireReady smartphone app, and listen to local radio for warnings and advice while you are on the road.

I wish all Victorians a wonderful summer, whether you’re at home or travelling around experiencing our State’s outstanding sights and attractions.

Be prepared and stay safe.

Ted Baillieu MLA Premier

If you’re in two minds, leave early.

The best way to prepare for this fire season is to stay informed and plan to leave early, before you see smoke or fire.

Plan to leave early: 9 9 9

Talk to everyone you live with so you all know when you’re going to leave and where you’re going to go if a fire starts.

Pack a relocation kit with important documents and essential items.

On high-risk days, check Fire Danger Ratings and fire warnings on the CFA website and listen to local radio.

Don’t wait and hope for the best. Visit the CFA website to find out how you can be FireReady.

Choose your body

By Lauren Ostrowski Fenton WHAT if you could choose your body at almost any age?

You can, but there is a catch. It requires accepting we only have control over our own thoughts and behaviour and not over the thoughts and behaviour of others.

Choosing your body requires taking responsibility for your current circumstances, decisions and goals.

Choosing your body also requires an acceptance of the motto “Life is sometimes unfair – build a bridge and get over it”.

We are not a fragile reed buffeted by the winds of life. We have choices. We can create our life.

So why not choose your body?

Choosing your body means:  Realising diets don’t work: eat well consistently each day instead.  Having a healthy spirit to accompany your

healthy body. Meditation and some kind of spiritual belief are vital.  Not allowing yourself to be a victim. Don’t blame others for your present circumstances: take responsibility. Change your behaviour and not someone else’s behaviour.  Managing your time effectively. Keep a journal of your journey to body change using realistic time frames.  Hanging out with others who choose to live a healthy life. Remember: birds of a feather flock together so don’t choose to be with people who weigh you down.  Following a gratitude ritual: feeling gratitude is an essential part of health and wellbeing. To achieve your body goals ensure you are always grateful for what you have in the here and now.

Take control of your behaviour and change your body today. www.laurenostrowskifenton.com

DO you suffer with chronic lower leg and foot pain? Have you tried all the conservative therapies and still suffer from nagging, burning pain? Prolotherapy may be the answer.

The Foot Pain Relief Clinic has been offering prolotherapy for the past two years. Dr C A Thomson, podiatrist, has just returned from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health after participating in the live activity entitled The Anatomy, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Myofascial Pain with Prolotherapy. He also attended the Research Symposium, which presented current research outcomes on prolotherapy.

Although you may not have heard about prolotherapy, it has been used to treat pain and injury for more than 60 years and the results have been amazing. In studies conducted on pain patients, up to 90 per cent of patients received good-toexcellent results in pain relief and improved function. Dr George Hackett, a prolotherapy pioneer, proved that strengthening connective tissue relieves soft tissue pain. His research was published in the respected medical journal The Lancet.

What is prolotherapy?

Prolotherapy (prolo), or ligament reconstructive therapy, is a safe, non-surgical treatment for chronic pain, injury and arthritis. Common problems treated with prolotherapy by this podiatrist include joint arthritis, and injuries of the knees, foot and ankle. Prolotherapy is defined by Webster’s Third New International Dictionary as “the rehabilitation of an incompetent structure, such as ligaments or tendons, by the induced proliferation of new cells”.

With prolotherapy the pain is not just covered up, the injury and the source of the pain is healed.

Prolotherapy is a medical procedure performed by people who have received and undertaken specialised hands on training in this technique.

How does prolotherapy work?

Prolotherapy works on a very simple principle: injecting a stimulating solution at the site of pain,

stimulates the body’s own healing mechanism to repair and rebuild tissue. This repair process can lead to a stronger and more supportive structure.

When an injury occurs, the area may not heal completely. This can be due to poor blood supply or inappropriate treatment. For this reason weak or damaged ligaments and tendons may heal very slowly, becoming lax and painful. Strengthening these tissues reduces pain and stabilises the structures, allowing you to comfortably perform desired activities.

What conditions can prolotherapy be used for?

Since most orthopaedic injuries involve damage to the ligaments, tendons and cartilage, just about all musculoskeletal injuries can be treated. Bursitis, tendonitis and sprains will most likely improve and potentially be cured with prolotherapy.

Examples include: Ankle and foot arthritis, ankle instability and chronic sprains and strains, planta fasciitis, heel pain and achillies tendonosis, sinus tarsi syndrome.

Knee injuries: arthritis, ligament instability and tears, peripheral meniscal tears, runner’s knee (tendonosis), Osgood-Schlatter’s disease, pes anserine tendonosis.

Complete ligament tears and fractures do not respond to prolotherapy unless surgery or immobilisation is performed first.

Our goal is to restore your body to normal, painfree function with as few treatments as possible.

Generally injections may be performed every 3-6 weeks.

Does prolotherapy work?

Numerous research studies are now available demonstrating the effectiveness of prolotherapy.

Major academic institutions and medical centres as well as many sports medicine centres are utilising prolotherapy as a non-surgical alternative to treat painful injuries to ligaments and tendons.

For an appointment to determine your suitability for prolotheraphy treatment, call The Foot Pain Relief Clinic on 9766 3253.

The real reason angels play harp

By Stuart McCullough IF music be the food of love, brace yourself for the worst meal of your life. I have taken up the violin. To just under my chin, as it happens.

I had seen other people play the instrument and, to be honest, it looked pretty simple.

It only has four strings. How hard could it be?

Nero was useless as Emperor of Rome, but even he could knock out a decent tune on the fiddle.

I should have been up and running within minutes. As I prised the instrument from its case and lifted the bow, I readied myself to unleash a flood of beautiful music on an expectant world.

As it turns out, I can’t play the violin. I don’t know why I thought I could. For some reason or other it just seemed like something I ought to be able to do. But I am wrong.

Not just a little bit wrong, but so deeply and profoundly mistaken that there’s really no word for it. In fact, the only way to properly express just how wrong I am is through music.

Should you strain your ears and detect something that sounds a little like a mosquito on steroids, that’s me playing my violin. It sounds ugly. If Vincent van Gogh was still with us, it’s the kind of sound

that would doubtless provoke him to lop off the other ear.

This is not the first time it’s happened. For some reason, I assume I possess a range of skills that fate, genetics and severe laziness have sought to deny me.

I used to think I could execute the perfect cartwheel, but, when put to the test, it turns out I’m really only capable of something that looks like a crab attempting to avoid a puddle.

Nor can I perform a handstand. As soon as my body weight is placed on my arms, they collapse like a

house of particularly flimsy cards. The sizeable bruise on my forehead serves as a warning to others of the perils of ad hoc gymnastics.

For years, I thought I could speak fluent French. All the signs were there. I’d seen several Inspector Clouseau movies and once owned a beret. Plus, I really like croissants.

For years, I wouldn’t think once, let alone twice, about deploying the Gallic tongue when dining at French restaurants and refused to so much as glance at the subtitles when watching French movies.

I even listened to Carla Bruni’s solo album and was convinced I understood it.

Only when I arrived in Paris did I discover that what I believed to be French was, in fact, gibberish. Suddenly, a lifetime’s worth of very poor meals at French restaurants made a whole lot of sense.

To say nothing of the fact that there’s a bunch of French movies I need to watch again.

I had asked for a violin for my birthday. On receiving it, I had assumed I’d be playing it like a pro within 15 minutes or a half hour, tops. Before I had even opened the case, I’d

sent an email to the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, just to let them know I was coming.

I dismissed suggestions that I should engage a tutor.

Frankly, getting violin lessons would only hold me back. The constraints of formal tutelage would slow me down and, worse still, might stifle my creativity. But as I tucked the instrument underneath my chin and ran the bow across the strings, I succeeded not in summoning up the melodies of the angels so much as opening the gates to hell. It sounded absolutely dreadful.

It’s a wonder that the next door neighbours didn’t resort to plugging their ears with candle wax.

Finally, I feel as though I understand the song Devil Went Down to Georgia by the Charlie Daniels Band. In the song, Beelzebub’s instrument of choice is the violin rather than a more obvious selection such as the kazoo or piano accordion. I have often heard the term “an instrument of evil” but, until now, never realised this was actually a violin. According to the song, the devil has way too much time on his hands and is prone to wandering around the American south, challenging hillbillies to a kind of musical duel. As you do.

There’s a rich tradition

TheTSober Mule PENINSULA Café

Did you know... our new website is now online Breaking news Sport Opinion Entertainment Photos Feature video

within music of people selling their souls to become better musicians – from bluesman Robert Johnson to Celine Dion’s soundtrack to Titanic.

However, the protagonist in Devil Went Down to Georgia doesn’t need the devil to make him a good violin player.

Rather, “Johnny” agrees to put his soul at stake in the hope of winning a golden fiddle.

Perhaps inevitably, Satan is bested by young Johnny and has to surrender his precious instrument. Something of a bad sport, Johnny brags he is the best there’s ever been.

Meanwhile Satan, deprived of his violin, is then forced to take up breakdancing instead.

If I was challenged to a violin duel right now, I’d be no chance at all of winning. I’m not willing to sell my soul to become a better player, either.

I guess I’m kind of stuck – either I give up altogether or start practising.

People living next door should invest in high-quality earmuffs. With my bow raised and violin clamped beneath my chin, I feel there is no time to lose.

Indeed, I’m reminded of an old French saying: Yoplait pencilmoustache renault stinkycheese baguette. Fitting words. I intend to live by them. www.stuartmccullough.com

Performance WITH his shaggy blond hair, satin pants and shirt open to the waist, strutting and prancing on stage, Rod Stewart was the quintessence of a rock star in concert in the late 1960s.

More than 40 years later, nothing has changed although the satin pants have been replaced by denim jeans.

Although he claims to be from Scotland, Stewart was born and bred in North London and attended the same school as Kinks singer Ray Davies.

Long John Baldry discovered Stewart and hired him in 1965 for his band. By 1968 Stewart had joined the Jeff Beck Group. Stewart and guitarist Ron Wood became best friends. Wood went on to play guitar with the Small Faces. When singer Steve Marriott left, Stewart joined the band as lead singer.

The band dropped the “Small” and became The Faces.

The song Maggie May made Rod Stewart’s career, sweeping out of the blue to the top of the singles charts in 1971. The single set the tone for other hit singles including Stay with Me and You Wear it Well. The tracks came from his successful albums Every Picture Tells a Story and Never a Dull Moment.

Stewart continued to dominate the charts throughout the late 1970s with hits like Tonight’s the Night, The First Cut is the Deepest, The Killing of Georgie, You’re in My Heart, Do Ya Think I’m Sexy and others.

Poppy’s Problem-solving This year Stewart signed a recording deal with Verve Music Group (Universal) that included recording his first-ever Christmas album, Merry Christmas, Baby featuring guests Michael Bublé, Mary J Blige, Cee-lo Green and a duet with Ella Fitzgerald.

“I have always been tempted to do a Christmas album. And now that I once again have young children, the timing couldn’t be better,” Stewart said.

“Recording the album gave me a chance to reunite with David Foster.”

Merry Christmas, Baby is an album of standards and traditional songs. Stewart is joined by Michael Bublé on Winter Wonderland. We Three Kings is a duet with Mary J Blige and the title tune is a duet with Cee-Lo Green featuring New Orleans’ favourite son Trombone Shorty. Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Let It Snow! features Dave Koz on saxophone and What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve? is a “virtual” duet with Ella Fitzgerald and featuring Chris Botti.

The album’s one original track, Red-Suited Super Man, is composed by Rod Stewart, David Foster and Amy Foster and features Trombone Shorty. www.rodstewart.com *** ON 3 December, Australia’s legendary and iconic band The Seekers celebrates its golden jubilee, exactly 50 years to the day since the four original members performed together as a group.

Melbourne trad jazz singer Judy Durham started a new job at J Walter Thompson advertising agen-

By Gary Turner cy in Melbourne and met account executive Athol Guy, another musician. He invited Durham to sit in with his mates Keith Potger and Bruce Woodley, who performed together as The Seekers in a little Melbourne coffee lounge called Treble Clef.

Fifty years on, The Seekers are still touching the hearts and souls of fans – some who’ve been with them from the very start.

A golden jubilee is an extraordinary milestone, especially when The Seekers are still performing and recording in their original lineup.

To celebrate the occasion, Judith and “the boys” slipped quietly into the studio mid-2012 to record two new tracks, which open the 50 tracks for 50 years Golden Jubilee Album. The two-CD album was released on 16 November and on 4 December, The Seekers celebrate the milestone in hometown Melbourne where the band was presented with a key to the city in 2006. www.theseekers50th.com www.theinsoundfromwayout.com *** THE musical based on the life story of singing sensation Susan Boyle, starring UK actress Elaine C Smith in the title role, runs for a limited season next year in Melbourne at Her Majesty’s Theatre, and tickets are now on sale.

Susan Boyle said: “I am thrilled Australian audiences will have the opportunity to see the incredibly talented Elaine C Smith in Ed Curtis’s amazing production of my official story.

“This has been an incredible ride and I hope to have the opportunity to visit Australia again when the production opens in Melbourne in May 2013.”

The musical tells the story of Boyle’s life, from her birth and the hand that fate dealt her up to the present day.

She was born into a large, working-class family, and shared a three-bedroom council house with 10 family members.

Boyle became a global star and an inspiration to millions, a woman who beat the odds and changed the way the world looked at people.

Mornington News 27 November 2012

I WAS reclining on my back patio contemplating the meaning of life and the ever-increasing price of stubbies when I heard a most unusual sound emanating from my gravel driveway.

The sound was a repeated “Crunch ... shhhhrt, crunch ... shhhhrt” and it was getting closer.

Granny, who was sitting with Poppy, was alarmed and asked if she should ring the police.

I told her not to bother because it was morning coffee time and to go inside and make three cups of cappuccino, one with a single sugar. Granny said she and I did not use sugar, and asked why make three cups of coffee (one with sugar) for the two of us.

I told her not to ask questions she did not know the answer to. (Poppy never asks a question he does not know the answer to.) Granny, bosom heaving, asked what was going on because it was a “need to know” situation for her.

Carefully, and with great respect, I told her that someone, probably Ricardo, was on his way up the driveway to ask for advice about the gout in his left big toe.

The next second, Ricardo limped around the corner of the house wearing a Blundstone workboot on his right foot and a fetching red tartan carpet slipper on his left. I think it was a McDowell tartan.

Ricardo said he had gout. What a surprise! He also asked two questions.

The first was “do I have to stop drinking?” and the second “what was I going to do to help him?”

Poppy’s solution I told Ricardo not to stress and that I had a solution to his problem. I told him he did not need to buy less beer and he was greatly relieved at this.

I told him he needed to increase his water intake, and the way to achieve this was for me to visit his place every night and bring six small bottles of water.

I explained that I would then ensure that after every stubby, he would drink one bottle of water before having another stubby, and that I would drink every second stubby of his for him to achieve this.

I told him that in the interests of his health, and medical situation, that I was prepared to take on this hardship and would perform the task to the very best of my ability.

As far as his foot-dragging limp was concerned, I advised him to tell people he had dropped something heavy on his foot. Ricardo was worried that this was not the truth, but I explained to him that sometimes a lie got you in less trouble that the truth, and that that was no lie, it was the truth.

A great place for coffee and play

By Cameron McCullough A WARM spring morning was a perfect time for a group of three year olds to descend on Angus & Rose at The Briars Park for a little rest and recreation.

Playgroup members Curtis, Mackenzie, Kennedy, Blake, Koby, Charlotte and Olivia, accompanied by their

mums and some younger siblings, had a great time playing in the garden, sandpit and on play equipment.

From exploring the plantlife and taking in the sights to some full-on playing, the kids didn’t let up for a solid two hours.

Lucky for the mums, the cafe was well equipped to service their coffee

needs as they watched their offspring.

Set in about a hectare of gardens, the cafe grounds include the full collection of David Austin roses as well as other old and Australian roses. Annuals, perennials and extensive decorative hedging and arbours present the garden to perfection.

Roses are also available for pur-

chase if one takes your fancy.

Inside, Angus & Rose is a kids’ paradise with themed rooms and lots to keep the little ones busy.

The shop has an eclectic mix of items you may wish to purchase.

It is also a popular place for kids’ parties with themed parties a specialty.

Themes include caterpillers and but-

terflies as well as the usual favourites like fairies, princesses and pirates.

Older children can enjoy a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party upstairs.

Angus & Rose is opposite The Briars Visitors Centre at 458 Nepean Hwy, Mt Martha. Details: 5974 4833.

The cafe is open seven days a week from 8.30am to 3.30pm.

The quick way: Koby Binyon exits the play equipment.

The three amigos: Blake Hyland, Koby Binyon and Kennedy McCullough playing.

Taking a break: Curtis Eagleson finds a shady spot.

Flower power Kennedy takes a liking to the roses.

Check this out: Olivia Brown shows Blake Hyland the roses.

Let me smell: Charlotte Wintle comes to grips with the roses.

Take a look: Kelly Halls with Sienna and Mackenzie.

Too much playing: Olivia Brown takes a break.

The magnificent seven: Curtis Eagleson, Mackenzie Halls, Kennedy McCullough, Blake Hyland, Koby Binyon, Charlotte Wintle and Olivia Brown.

I love you: Kennedy McCullough shares a moment with mum Melissa. Pictures: Cameron McCullough Mornington News 27 November 2012

Jewell’s fourth ton as Old Boys chase leather PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully SORRENTO’S Nick Jewell smacked his fourth century for the season on Saturday in his team’s monster tally of 8/326 against Peninsula Old Boys.

Jewell has amassed 576 runs this season, including 104 in a Jack Peacock Cup game.

He began the season with two centuries, before clocking 143 on the weekend.

Jewell once again showed he is simply a class above in this competition with the rate he scores.

He was the second man out when the score was on 208 after Mick Dunball was rolled for 31 with the score on 115.

Skipper Anthony Blackwell was second-best with the bat for the Sharks with 61, and Liam O’Connor scored 32.

Glen Prendergast and John Forrest were the best of the POB bowlers, snaring two wickets each.

POB went into the match without Adam Jones, and the Sharks were without opener Jack Falck.

Ben Clements continued his blistering return to MPCA cricket on Saturday against Mt Eliza, smashing an unbeaten 99 in Mornington’s 9/248.

Anthony Gapes (36) and Rob Hearn (35) were good at the top of the order for the Doggies, and Sam Buchanan was positive in the middle of the innings with 40, but there wasn’t much

else to crow about. Mt Eliza’s bowlers were in charge, Lyle House snaring 6/74 from 21 overs, while Justin Grant took 2/57 from 24 overs.

Long Island has a bit of work to do to get the points against Crib Point.

Although the Magpies didn’t set the world on fire at the nest, they managed to post 206.

Brad Davidson was the best of the home batsmen with an unbeaten 82, and Henry Dolphins scored 38.

Andrew Tweddle was the best of the Long Island bowlers with 3/27, Greg Lamb continued his sensational season with 2/58 and Justin Bridgeman chimed in with 2/59.

Moorooduc will need to produce something special with the ball after

being rolled by Baxter for 183.

The Ducs started well with Luke Sheenan (24) and Shaun Hibberd getting their side away to a great start.

However, wickets began to tumble and in the end a score close to 200 was a pretty good result.

It was unheralded Baxter bowlers who did the damage with the ball.

Although top-liners Adrian Mack, Dale Irving and Trav Sawers took four wickets between them, Ryan O’Donnell, Ben Matters and Leigh Paterson did the bulk of the damage, snaring two wickets each. Paterson had 2/8 off five overs.

Like the Ducs, Heatherhill will need to be at their best with the ball to defeat Mt Martha.

Heatherhill was rolled for 185 on Saturday, John Hille top-scoring with 45 and John Hille Jnr scoring 33.

Ballam Park was staring down the barrel of another outright defeat when it was bowled out for 114 on Saturday against Rye. However, the Demons collapsed when it was their turn to bat and at stumps were still 18 runs shy of the total with just three wickets in hand.

Earlier, Knights’ skipper Matty Roach top-scored with 39 for his side.

Tommy Barrand snared 5/38 with the ball for the Demons.

When it came to bowl, Matty Roach was at it again, taking 3/30, while Ross Perry snared 3/14. Justin King was Rye’s top-scorer on day one with 34.

Carrum’s bowlers put YCW to sword as Pines set Baden Powell a task DISTRICT

By IT Gully CARRUM will be looking to go for the jugular of Frankston YCW on day two of its round five match in MPCA District cricket.

The Stonecats have been competitive this season, but were dismissed for just 69 on Saturday against a side that is expected to feature prominently at the pointy end of the season.

Carrum’s bowlers were superb, Cory Foster the pick with 4/31 from nine overs.

Lachy Dobson was also on fire, bowling 4.1 overs and finishing with the flattering figures of 3/7. Jackson Fry also opened the bowling for the Lions and snared 3/24 from 11 overs.

Seventeen-year-old Jack Greenwood was the best of the YCW batsmen with 21, and only two others made it into double figures.

The Stonecats were rolled in the 31st over.

Shaun Foster then came in and blasted a quickfire 50, while Liam Hulett hit 26 to help Carrum to 6/150 in just 37 overs.

Keen to have one last dip at the Stonecats before stumps, the Lions were able to pick up a wicket in the final six overs of the day.

YCW will resume on 1/18, still 63 runs short of Carrum’s first innings score.

Pines bounced back with a solid batting performance against Baden Powell, managing 8/241.

Harley Peace-Sterling hit an unbeaten 70 for the Piners, while Harley Parker was next best with 33. Brett Hudgson and Brett Remy chipped in with 30s to help the score well past 200.

Anjula Perera was the pick of the Braves’ bowlers with 4/73, while fellow tweaker John Harrison snared 2/83.

Delacombe Park is in a lot of strife against Boneo. Batting first, the Parkers were rolled for just 129 on their home deck.

Chris Williams was sensational for the visitors, claiming 4/41, while Ryan Jellie chipped in with 2/8.

Simon Dignan was left stranded at the end of the innings, unbeaten on 34.

In reply, Boneo is 1/49 and on target to win a big match.

Flinders has Main Ridge in all sorts of trouble at the end of the first day in the twoday match.

The home side made 211, Tim Clarke again dominant with the bat with 79. Dwayne Field compiled 45 and Matty Burns 29.

Gareth Wyatt was the best of the Main Ridge bowlers with 2/30. Brendan Rossborough, Jason Albress and Brian Jones picked up two wickets each.

Field then went about doing some damage with the ball for the Sharks, snaring the first three wickets to have the visitors in trouble at 3/20 at stumps. Field has 3/17.

In the final game, Somerville and Langwarrin are poised to fight it down to the wire.

The Eagles batted first and with Keith Burdett (66) and Sam Delaney (40) flying the flag, were able to score a more than competitive 216.

Dwayne Doig continued his outstanding season for the Kangas with 4/39, and Mal Coutts and Jarryd Amalfi snared two wickets each. In reply, Langwarrin is 0/12.

Quite a dig: Luke Hewitt scored an impressive 26 runs off just six scoring shots as Hastings amassed an impressive 345 against Seaford. Picture: Andrew Hurst

Balnarring bats fire as Tigers look to limit Skye SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully BALNARRING’S Brenton Taylor went from scoring just 35 runs in three innings to compiling a massive 164 against French Island in MPCA Subdistrict cricket on Saturday.

While Luke Chapple was out early for 20, Taylor and keeper Brendan Saker put on 184 for the second wicket, Saker unluckily bowled by Aaron King just one short of his century.

Balnarring amassed 7/388 at the

PAGE 46

Robert Thompson Oval on French Island.

Ben King was the leading wickettaker for the Islanders with 3/150 off 24 overs, and Jason Matthews picked up 2/60 from 13 overs.

Seaford Tigers’ bowlers will need to be at their best when they defend a score of 164 against Skye on day two of their match.

Corey Hand scored 52 and Gavin Gardner-Smith 26 for the Tigers, but no other bats offered resistance.

Pat Clinch was the best of the Skye

Mornington News 27 November 2012

bowlers with 5/45, and Paul Fillpone snared 3/59.

In reply, Skye is 0/26.

Pearcedale is in the box seat against Dromana, scoring 9/263.

Matt Cousland was up and about for the Panthers with an unbeaten 66, and Brad Trotter opened the innings with a strong 44.

Kaine Smith was solid in the middle part of the innings with 39, Shayne Gillings scored 25 and Shane Urbans was back in the whites, scoring 20.

Brett Slocombe was the pick of the

bowlers for the Hoppers with 5/74.

Tyabb wasn’t fantastic with the bat on Saturday, scoring just 180, but their bowlers came to the rescue late in the day, snaring two wickets to have Carrum Downs in some early trouble at 2/18. Nathan Hudgson has both poles and finished day one with the tidy figures of 2/3.

The Yabbies were best served with the bat by Luke Rus, who scored 75, and Josh Hirst scored 46.

Chamara Perera was the best of the Cougars’ bowlers with 7/53.

Tootgarook is in massive trouble against Rosebud. The Tooters were rolled for just 146 by their neighbour, Jason Nagel again dominating with the ball, claiming 4/48 for Rosebud.

Darren Kerr, Brian Doughty and Jason Pierce picked up a couple of wickets each.

The Buds then had 24 overs to teeoff and did just that with Greg McCann belting an unbeaten 70. Darren Kerr up the other end finished the day on 11.

Overnight, the Buds are 0/87.

Night racing at Cranbourne a winner ALL looks to be going smoothly at Cranbourne as night racing moves into top gear.

The Cranbourne Turf Club’s tricode meeting last Friday night – horse races, harness races and greyhounds – appeared to be a resounding success.

“We were delighted with the crowd and everything went according to plan,” chief executive Neil Bainbridge said.

“We have developed a supporter base and are looking forward to conducting more successful meetings during the summer.”

The club will hold seven night fixtures and three harness racing meetings between next Saturday and 18 January.

The harness meeting on Saturday 8 December will feature the $100,000 Cranbourne Pacing Cup, which has become an important event on the pacing calendar.

Lights and action: Mark Webb-trained Street Diamond with Peter Mertens aboard overpowers Kimiko and Princess Mossman at Cranbourne on Friday night. Picture: Slickpix

The race was won last year by American-bred champion Mr Feelgood, who defeated this year’s Inter Dominion winner Im Themightyquinn.

To add to the appeal of the meetings the club will offer racecourse entry

and a buffet meal for $20 as well as live bands and entertainment. *** THERE is no doubt Cranbourne “boy” Craig Williams is one of the world’s finest jockeys. Williams demonstrated

his ability with a brilliant ride to finish third on Rulership in the Japan Cup on Sunday.

Normally an on-pacer, Rulership was slowly away and among the tailenders in the early part of race.

But Williams cleverly weaved a passage through the 17-horse field to snatch third place in the last few strides.

Now fulfilling a short-term contract in Japan, he will receive a release to ride at the Hong Kong International meeting on Sunday week.

He will be aboard Dunaden, who will be trying to win his second successive Hong Kong Vase, and Alcopop in the Hong Kong Cup. Williams partnered Dunaden in his last to first victory in the Caulfield Cup before finishing 14th when favourite in the Melbourne Cup, when he had legitimate excuses.

The eight-year-old Alcopop put himself right into Hong Kong Cup contention when with Williams in the saddle he won the Mackinnon Stakes at Flemington on 3 November.

Horse who acquitted themselves over the past week and are worth fol-

lowing are Monogamy, Burndiniburn, Alpha Proxima, Lucripeteous, Mouro, Chasse, Koe, Kutchinsky, Two Sugars, City Of Song, Tykook, Kitty Cotswold, Hot Lover, Pelicano, Doctor Fremantle, Emboldened and Dane The Rave.

Best: Pelicano.

An early look at Caulfield on Saturday: Union Gap (3yo), Kukla (3-filly), General Truce, Stratcombe, Winter King (1100m hcp), Flyingconi, Under The Eiffel (1400m hcp), Clang And Bang (2000m), Spot On Maggie (1400m mares) and Bia Diamond, Secret Liaison (1800m mares).  International form expert Peter Ellis provides weekly racing tips on a weekly podcast at www. racingandsports.com.au and at the Tatts website.

‘Think’ like a fish if you want to catch one ON THE LINE

By Paul “Tracker” Pingiaro TO understand fishing, first understand the weather and the patterns and cycles that dictate our climate.

Fish are creatures of instinct, they follow the lunar cycle and their mood is dictated by the prevailing conditions and pressure systems.

While humans may not be as affected by the weather as fish, we must understand that in the aquatic world 10 metres down is the same as human climbing to 3000 metres.

Water has a much higher density that air so temperature changes are more notable as different fish have different comfort levels.

While trying to decipher this intricate piscatorial code can take years, anglers can start to break the code by keeping a fishing diary noting date, location, species, bait, water temperature, barometer reading, depth, moon, tide and time fished.

Over time you will notice the fish you’re targeting are following patterns in weather and lunar cycles. But remember, fish can be completely predictable or totally unpredictable

All my own “work”: Mikael Persson shows off a 4.8-kilogram snapper.

Where they’re biting James Rodgers of Unreel Fishing Charters (0416 139 814) reports “Port Phillip snapper have been the talk of the town and finally we have reached that magic 17 degrees, which seems to trigger very hungry snapper everywhere”.

“This also triggers the time where the middle of the day and the afternoon bite become very good. This has been evident as many friends and associates have been bagging out in record time every afternoon over the past week.

“We have had an amazing stretch of bag out charters. There is nothing quite like the mayhem of having every rod in the boat hooked up at the same time

and having big snapper coming in right, left and centre.

“Last week areas that seemed to hold the most snapper were from Black Rock to Brighton in 12-16 metres and from Chelsea to Seaford in the same depths with Chelsea, Carrum and Seaford in 15 metres being the go-to areas.

“I think this will continue for some time and these areas have held fish in numbers not seen in my life “Of course there are still plenty of snapper in other areas and Frankston to Mornington in 18-19 metres has been quite good. Best baits have been without a doubt humble pilchards with silver whiting and red rockets also good.

“Best times have been first light or mid- to late afternoon from around 3-7.30pm. Best methods have been to anchor and burley hard using pilchard pieces, Gotcha’s yellow snapper burley nuts or Zeacols snapper snack nuts.

A small handful sprinkled around the boat every 3-5 minutes will soon bring them to the back of the boat provided you’re in the right area.

“My prediction for the coming week is to keep an eye on the 13-15-metre line from Frankston to Mordialloc. The whole 19-metre line is currently hold-

ing a lot of snapper. For those who only have an eye for King George whiting, Western Port’s North Arm is loaded. A number of my mates have been doing very well every trip with no particular area standing out over another.

“Calamari are patchy from Mornington to Frankston, but are in good numbers at Rye and Sorrento with some great catches around The Sisters between Sorrento and Blairgowrie.

“Garfish are still nowhere to be seen from Mornington to Brighton, but we hope they will be coming soon.”

For land-locked anglers there are good options. Fish for whiting from the beach between Rye and Mt Martha.

Best time is late evening and best baits mussels, pipes and sand worms.

From the piers, Mornington is producing mullet and a few squid, Stony Point has a few squid, Blairgowrie has squid and the occasional whiting, and Mordialloc and Brighton have a few snapper at night.

Clients of Mornington Boat Hire have been catching snapper to 5kg and flathead to 1kg. Last week also saw the return of squid. Whiting have been a little harder but they are still about and patience is required.

For snapper, try in 16-18 metres of water out from the pier and in 12 metres around the mussel farm. For whiting and squid, head over to off Mills Beach and Sunnyside.

Jonny at Yaringa Boat Hire reports some great catches last week with quite a few snapper to 4kg and whiting to 45cm. The snapper have been best on the runout tide, while whiting have been good at all times. Other fish caught in Western Port include gummy shark, leatherjacket, salmon, trevally, salmon flathead and mullet.

From surf beaches, salmon are about at Mornington Peninsula back beaches as well as Kilcunda.

Tight lines and calm seas.  Paul “Tracker” Pingiaro has been fishing since he could hold a rod and stay in the boat. He has boat hire businesses in Mornington and Yaringa Boat Harbour in Somerville. He has been a fishing writer for magazines and brings his knowledge to MP News Group for season 2012-13.
