Second Bribie Bridge is Back in Sight Cathy Moore

A second bridge to Bribie Island is back in sight, with Transport and Main Roads purchasing land on each side of the passage last month.

A Transport and Main Roads spokesperson confirmed that there is no set date for construction but said the bridge will be built when funding is allocated.

Former Member for Pumicestone, Lisa France said she was thrilled to hear the land was finally secured.

“It’s been a very long campaign to get the land for the duplicate bridge to be secured,” she said.

“Feasibility studies were done while I was in office and commitments were made that when funds were available they would be allocated to the construction and design phase.

“The design phase is complete and I strongly encourage the current state member to fight for the funding for the the

construction phase to take place.”

With future subsidy being measured against other priorities in Queensland it is unsure when construction will begin.

But Brooke Savige, for Division One, has plans in the meantime.

“Realistically it is years down the track before something will begin on the bridge so that is years that the land is sitting there vacant,” she said.

“I thought it would be great for the community to have a say in using the land for a welcome sign or project, community notice board, park or perhaps the business community.

“It is such a big block and right there when you come on the island, it seems a waste to leave it vacant and unused for years.”

Moreton Bay Regional Council announced their $20,000 contribution to an innovative shellfish trial.

The intent of the trial is to deliver further improvements in the water quality and fish stocks of Pumicestone Passage.

Mayor Allan Sutherland said the contribution is for the first stage of a trial

by SEQ Catchments, Digfish Services and Sunsfish to establish shellfish reefs.

“Scientists have known for some time the important role shellfish play in marine ecosystems by helping to filter and clean seawater, as well as provide a valuable food source for fish and crabs,” Mayor Sutherland said.

“There’s evidence to suggest Pumicestone Passage has historically supported significant numbers of water filtering shellfish reefs.

“Projects in the US, New Zealand and Melbourne’s Port Phillip Bay have shown it is possible to regenerate and re-establish shellfish reefs to help improve ecosystem health.”

Mayor Sutherland said council’s $20,000 investment in the first stage of the shellfish trial would complement the solid results already achieved by the

Child Found Unconscious in Water at Bribie Lagoon A four-year-old girl was left fighting for her life last month after being found unconscious in the water of a Bribie Island lagoon.

A young boy noticed the girl and ran to tell his father who was an off duty ambulance officer.

The off duty officer performed CPR on the young girl, whose heart and breathing had stopped, while waiting for paramedics.

It is believed she was in the water for up to eight minutes.

It took 20 minutes of CPR to get

Pumicestone Passage and Catchment Action Plan.

The Pumicestone Passage and Catchment Action Plan is a partnership between Moreton Bay Regional Council, Sunshine Coast Council and more than 30 stakeholder and community groups to repair riparian environments and limit catchment sediment run-off.

“This year’s Healthy Waterways Report Card rated the Pumicestone Passage catchment among the best in South East Queensland and acknowledged the action plan as a significant factor in improvements in water quality,” the Mayor said.

“It’s early days yet for the trial, but if successful there are predictions shellfish could help to accelerate the gains we’re already seeing in seagrass growth, water clarity and fish stocks for future generations.”

Phase one of the shellfish trial is dependent on the identification of a suitable site for the restoration of shellfish reefs and obtaining the necessary state and federal approvals to proceed with a pilot restocking project.

The young girl who was visiting the Island from Brisbane with family was airlifted to Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in critical condition.

A Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital spokesperson said shortly after the incident that the girl was in the intensive care unit in a stable condition.

It is believed the girl was playing with friends shortly before she was found in the water.

Sandstone Point Bush Fire Blazed While QFES Crews Worked to Control it

Several QFES crews worked to keep the blaze away from homes was incredible,” she said.

Local father, Jason Holloway said his kids were taken to his parents due to the amount of smoke but the house was not evacuated.

“The fire was about 20 metres from the fence line,” he said.

“The fire brigade did door knocking to keep us informed and hosed down the back of our house to keep the embers away.”

Mr Holloway was also advised to use the garden hose to spray his outdoor equipment.

“With the fire brigade keeping us informed it made it not a worry at all,” he said.

“Some damage to the kids outdoor play equipment but nothing major.”

Aerial observation also took place and motorists were advised to avoid the area.

Thankfully no people or properties were harmed and QFES managed to control the fire.

I am committed to a responsive, fair and transparent council that works for and with the community to maintain and improve its lifestyle and services.

With your support in the March 2016 Local government elections we can keep Division One a great place to live work and play where lifestyle really counts. If you elect Paul Whyte as your fresh, committed local voice in Council you can be assured of having a person with the skills and expertise necessary to continue providing the community with the facilities they deserve.

Mass Mess Left at Local Skate Park

Homes Evacuated Following Sandstone Point Bush Fire

Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) requested assistance from the Queensland Police Service to evacuate homes in Sandstone Point last month following a large bush fire.

The fire began in Sandstone Point bushland with multiple QFES crews attending the scene.

Locals were originally advised by QFES that smoke may affect nearby properties.

“Residents are advised to close windows and doors and keep medication on hand if suffering from respiratory illness,” a QFES spokesperson said.

This advice later turned into an evacuation in the vicinity of Trent Court, Sandstone Point.

QFES then initiated back burning to help control the large fire.

Local woman Shyla Mclaren said she was fortunately not evacuated despite the blaze being just behind her fence but said she found the fire “amazingly interesting”.

“The way the Firey’s [sic] controlled it

upgrades. Identifying needs of the community and scoping of intended works by community engagement and consultation is fundamental to good planning and development of council facilities, infrastructure and services

A local mother was left shocked at the state of the Sandstone Point Skate Park last month when she attended to celebrate her son’s 6th birthday.

The mother spent the morning cleaning up handful upon handful of broken glass and assorted types of rubbish.

According to Girls Guide Group Leader, Theresa Schirmer, it is a common activity for the guides to go to local areas cleaning up this kind of mess.

“Part of our guiding program is doing things like this in the community and to take care of the environment,” she said.

“We take great pains to leave zero footprint wherever we go, I am obliged as their leader and as part of our program to educate them on such hot topics as this.”

While mess is a common problem in all towns, cities and suburbs it is important to remember that only six years ago Bribie Island was awarded Tidiest Town.

This may seem like a minor success to some but the island’ s clean environment was a major contribution to our abundance of wildlife on such a small island.

Local lady, Catherine Boyd, said she loves living in the area and picks up rubbish wherever she goes.

“Along the beach front here, through the mangroves, along the fire break and along the streets,” she said.

“At the skate park there are around five bins but the rubbish is always thrown around them.

“What children and adults don’t realise is how long it takes the plastic to break down, if it does.

“Our oceans and rivers or how many animals it kills.

“If everyone picked up some rubbish on the way to work etc. how much of a difference it could make.”

on Bribie Island

With Australia Day fast approaching many locals will be flocking to our Island’s beautiful beaches to enjoy some sun, sand and surf.

With so much around, the hardest part of the day will be choosing where to go.

Brennan Park will play host to the Aussie Beach Party from 7:30am7:30pm.

Bribie Lions Publicity Coordinator Gordon West said locals can expect the annual breakfast.

“At the Moreton Bay Regional Council’s Australia Day celebrations Bribie Lions in conjunction with Cornetts provide a free Aussie breakfast from 7:30am,” Mr West said.

“We usually cook up to 2000 breakfasts.”

After breakfast the Bribie Lions club will assist with other festive activities set out for the day.

“Lions have been doing breakfast for the last eight years in conjunction with Cornetts IGA,” he said.

“Lions do it because it is a way of giving back to the local community who support us during the year.”

Locals have long loved this venue for its family-friendly atmosphere.

There are barbeques scattered along the waterfront (you’ll want to be quick to score one of them though), a park for the little one, restaurants, cafés and eateries as well as community events, games and entertainment.

Of course there is also the beautiful passage for locals to have a swim and truly get into the Aussie spirit.

Bribie Island Jetty is situated only a few hundred metres away, making a perfect spot for a fishing trip on the holiday - be careful it will be packed though!

Australia Day marks the anniversary of the arrival of the First Fleet of British Ships in 1788 at Port Jackson, NSW. Since then Australia Day has become a celebration of multi-culturalism, a reflection on Australian history and community and family events.

On the eve of Australia Day the holiday is marked by the presentation of the Australian of the Year Awards and Australia Day Honours List.

Whatever the plans may be, remember to be sun-safe and celebrate responsibly – we will see you out there!

Banksia Student Successes

Spirit of Banksia

The performance was topped off with the singer being Banksia’s very own Deputy Mrs Heidi Weaver.

Banksia Students celebrating a year of success From various sports, bands, choirs and dance troupes to full musical productions, Banksia’s students have earned their celebration.

Banksia Beach State School Principal Jacqui King said The Spirit of Banksia was an annual event which commenced in 2012.

“It is a celebration of all that has been achieved for the staff and students of Banksia Beach in the year,” Ms King said.

“This year we celebrate the winning of the State Development Cup, The State AFL Championship and many District Championships.”

Banksia Beach State School has also received several awards in music including Most Outstanding Performance for their big band and concert band at the

Brisbane City Bands Festival.

The students also came home with Concert Band Primary School Winner at St Columban’s College School Concert Band Spectacular.

Their Platinum Band and Big Band both achieved 2nd placings in the secondary school section against 12 secondary state and private schools.

Banksia’s students also won Champion Primary Concert Band, Champion Junior Choir and Champion Senior Choir at both the Queensland Youth Music Festival and the Sunshine Coast Eisteddfod.

“Our students shouldn't be able to play Senior Secondary music,” she said.

“Our boys should not be able to win a State Championship in a sport most had

never played before.”

“We should not have been able to win a State Championship in Rugby League when our final opposition, Kirwan State School, has Jonathon Thurston as their supporter and mentor.”

“But they did all of this and that's because of the Banksia Spirit.”

“We love our school and every child believes in the do bes [sic] - Do Your Best, Be your Best and Look your Best and then you will be the best.”

“Banksia Spirit is a wonderful celebration of the effort and achievement each member brings to our school.”

“We are Banksia and so very proud to be Banksia,” Ms King said.

Jack Thompson and Liam McNeil on Awards Morning with Principal Jacqui King and Mr Allan Coe from Bribie Bank of Queensland.

Banksia State School celebrated in more ways than one this year with senior students Jack Thompson receiving school dux and Liam McNeil awarded the Allrounder.

Principal Jacqueline King said that student who receives a Dux award is the highest achieving student in all assessments throughout the year.

This includes English, Math and Science.

Allrounder is awarded to the student with the highest achievements across Sport, Academia and Music.

“It was a wonderful morning with our Business community and parents where we celebrated students achieving personal excellence,” Ms King said.

“Thank you to all sponsors who give so generously to our school.”

Congratulations to both boys, Jack Thompson and Liam McNeil, for their excellent achievement and best of luck in the future.

Series of Sharks Caught off the Shore

Brodie Taplin with a 1.8m Bull Shark

Stuart Parrant and his 1.38m Bull Shark caught off Bribie’s Bridge Three local fishermen have made some big catches this month, after each pulling in a shark from Bribie’s passage.

Brent Jones said he and a friend, Brodie Taplin, caught two bull sharks over the course of one weekend and then another later that week.

“Not very hard to catch them around Bribie,” he said.

“There is a lot out there, it’s not the first time we have caught big sharks around the island.”

The sharks measured in close to 2 metres long the first being 1.8 metres, the second 1.9 metres and the third 1.5 metres.

All three of the sharks were released.

Mr Jones also caught another shark earlier this year in January 2015.

To stay updated on Mr Jones’ and Mr Taplin’s regular catches, see their Facebook page titled Estuary Fishing Queensland.

shallows and it took three of us to lift it from there.”

Mr Parrant said it was only a small shark measuring in at 1.38 metres but said it was very healthy.

“In my mind it was big enough to take a leg if needed,” he said.

“I fish the passage regularly and quite often get bites off large sharks, on same occasions taking jewfish from my line.”

Mr Parrant said he had also caught a couple of stonefish recently in his cast net.

“I was stunned to see a lady the next day at Whitepatch with a couple of young children playing in the shallows near the rocky area with no shoes on,” he said.

With the weather heating up many locals will be heading to the beach.

Residents are advised to take appropriate precautions in the water, such as swimming in guarded areas and avoiding shallow rocky areas.

This is especially important with Australia Day coming up and the number of families attending Bribie’s beaches.

Another local man, Stuart Parrant, pulled in a smaller shark near Bribie’s bridge last month, as well as two stone fish in separate locations.

Mr Parrant said he recently shared a couple of photos on Facebook of his friends that had caught bigger bull sharks in the local area.

“I had many enquiries about the sharks so I decided I would try catch one to prove my point more than anything,” he said.

“So I took a shark line up to the bridge late at night and baited it with a stingray.

“It disappeared in no time so I rebaited it and within minutes I had another bull shark on.”

“Another young fellow, Dillon, helped me try and lift it but was impossible Stone fish caught by Stuart Parrant in Paid Advertisement so I walked it along until I reached the the passage

Dan Clancy For Councillor Division 1 MBR

Your Local Voice

Hello, I’m pleased to announce my campaign as a candidate for Division 1 Councillor in the Moreton Bay Regional Council election, to be held in March next year.

I am a local resident and I want to make a difference. I have five priorities (1) Cost of Living, through keeping council rates and charges low and maintaining concessions and rebates. (2) Better Road and Transport Options (3) Staying Healthy (4) Looking after our wildlife and our coastline and (5) ensuring that we have coordinated disaster management and response.

I will be out and about across the Division so please come and say hi. If you can’t catch me in person, I’m available on 0476 291 675, email, Facebook and Twitter, just search for me on Google.

A LITTLE MOMENT OF HAPPINESS Camp Quality Christmas Picnic in the Park

A big line up to meet Santa and his helpers

For the children with cancer from Camp Quality, Lions Camp Quality Christmas Picnic means that, for one day, they can forget about hospitals, sickness and interminable treatments and get a chance to be just like ordinary children… to run and swim… to stare up into the face of Santa Clause in childlike wonder and awe .

Children awaiting Santa’s arrival The local Lions Club on Bribie Island along with numerous local groups host 200 children and their families from Camp Quality each year at the Christmas Picnic in the Park. The children and families enjoy a day of treats, fun, laughter and sunshine – with everything taken care of on the day. This is the 9th year that all food, drinks and a sample bag for each child from Camp Quality packed with goodies on the day are proudly donated by Cornetts Supermarkets.

For a group of children to whom Christmas means a very special time, Sunday 29th November 2015 was a day when Lions and Lioness from nine local clubs and the clubs from the district Q3 areas gathered together at Brennans Park, Bribie Island, to assist in giving them all a FUN DAY. This could not have happened without the help of the following businesses and people:

Island Promotion & Costume Hire, Wyatt Roy, Cornetts Supa IGA, Viv’s Farm, RL & VA O’Brien, The Ferryman, State Emergency Service - Bribie Island, Bribie Island Fire Brigade, Wrights Fruit Barn - Jacky Wright, Bribie Island Men’s shed, Bribie V.V.A, Affordable Entertainment, Bribie Island Police, Bribie Island Scout Group, Wallum Group, P & C Amusements, Bribie R.S.L Sub Branch, Bribie R.S.L Citizens club, Rick Williams and everyone for their help on the day.

30 Lions Club came together and made the day possible.

But this day is not just for the camp quality children - it is a day for families – for all of the mums, dads, sisters, brothers, when they can get together and have a real ‘Picnic in the Park’. Approximately 400 families and volunteers from Camp Quality Attended.

On the day there was: food and drink, as well as entertainment from YE Olde Brass Band & Uke Band. Santa handed out approximately 200 gift bags to the children of the families who are connected with Camp Quality.

Also Included in the entertainment: jumping castles, laughing clowns, face painting, Viv’s Farm & Rock Wall and the three boat cruises.

A good day was had by all.

RICK’S MONTHLY TIP “Personal Injury Insurance”

Personal Injury Insurance or Income Replacement Insurance is a must for tradies and the selfemployed, including Company Directors. For the Tradie, it replaces an income in the event of accident or illness. It does the same for small business owners.

Directors differ vastly form the former too, as most directors take drawings and lump a lot of their costs into tax minimisation strategies, draw less disposable taxable income, therefore they need to have an agreed value sum insured as do professional people.

Note This is not to be considered advice specific to your needs. This advice is generic only.

Next month’s tip – Home and Contents Insurance.

An elderly lady accidently drove her vehicle into the Discount Chemist on First Ave Bongaree, Tuesday.

The cause is not known at this stage.

She escaped without injury whilst an elderly man sustained minor injuries due to breaking glass.

The chemist however copped a large amount of damages to the building and so did the stock at the pharmacy.

Fascinating Bribie history revealed Barry Clark- Bribie Island Historical Society & U3A Tutor.

Postcard Whackalo - Bongaree Foreshore in the 1960’s Bribie Island has some quite remarkable and often surprising secrets to reveal ….if you know where to look.

When James Cook sailed past, far off the coastline in 1770, he observed the far away volcanic outcrops and named them the “Glasshouses”, as they reminded him of the Glass making Factories in his distant homeland.

When Mathew Flinders and his aboriginal companion Bongaree came to explore this Bay almost 30 years later in 1799, he was the first European to set foot on what is now Bribie Island. He explored and mapped Moreton Bay but failed to find the Brisbane river . He did row a small boat up what he named the Pumicestone river, and climbed one of the Glasshouse mountains.

After that the first white people to actually live here came 24 years later in 1823, when 3 castaway convicts lost in a huge storm out of Sydney, were eventually washed up weeks later on Moreton Island. They were very lucky to be alive at all, and with considerable help from the native people they walked for months around the Bay and eventually lived for many months on Bribie Island island before being rescued.

They were found almost a year later by those sent in search of a site for a new Penal Colony in Moreton Bay. The worst of the worst convicts from Sydney were initially sent to a small Penal Settlement at Redcliffe in 1824, which was relocated after a few months to what is now the city of Brisbane.

The Penal Colony was closed after a few years and Queensland was opened up to exploration and free settlement.

here on Bribie Island at Whitepatch. It lasted only a short time, as did the Aboriginal School at Mission Point in 1891 In 1891 Bribie Island was briefly visited by Archibald Meston, an Explorer, Author and Politician, and an official “Protector of the Aborigines”. He made this comment…...

“Bribie Island is one of the meanest piece of country in Australia……a howling desert of tea-tree swamps, rank aquatic vegetation and unimaginable cussedness” It is therefore quite remarkable Archibald Meston that just a few years - Archibald Meston later the Directors did not think much of the Brisbane Tug & Stemship of Bribie in 1891 Company decided to invest tens of millions of pounds, building a steam ship and leasing large areas of the Island, to turn Bribie into Australia’s first Island holiday destination.

In 1912 they built a Jetty at Bongaree, the steamship “Koopa” was steamed out from UK to Moreton Bay to start regular “Excursion” trips from Brisbane via Redcliffe to Bribie Island.

The next 20 years saw Bribie develop as a destination for mass tourism, with many thousands of visitors coming by steam ships every weekend and holiday, to enjoy a cheap and healthy holidays here.

At Christmas and Easter holidays there were more people camped along the foreshore at Bongaree than lived in the entire Caboolture Shire at that time.

Hall & Bestman Store - The only shop on Bribie in the 1920’s Bribie jetty - Huge crowds swarm off Steamships in 1930’s

Banya St - Banya Street in the 1940’s with cows wandering about The new State of Queensland In 1859 Queensland was established as a new and self governing State of Australia, separated from NSW .

Within just a few years the extensive Aboriginal population of Moreton Bay had been reduced to just a few. To protect their declining numbers Queensland’s first Aboriginal reserve was established in 1877

Page 12

Boom and Bust These “boom” years for Bribie tourism were interrupted in the 1930’s by the “Great Depression”, and soon after that came World War 2. These events led to great changes on the island as the Military moved in , most residents were moved out, and Bribie Island became a strategic training and defence location throughout the War years.

The “excursion” trade resumed again after the War, but by now the Motor Car was becoming the favoured form of transport, and more people braved the long and bumpy road trip to bring their car by ferry barge to the Island.

By 1963 a bridge had been built and the Island was joined to mainland Australia.

Looking back over those years since

Crowds awaiting bay steamer - Steamship arriving at Bongaree Jetty 1930’s the first people came here, the Island has experienced some remarkable events, many of which often surprise residents and visitors.

Some things that may surprise you about Bribie are …

- There are over 50 Aboriginal sites officially gazetted on the Island, representing occupation over many thousands of years.

- The Water Tower in the Caravan Park at Bongaree is on the site of a large Aboriginal shell midden.

- In the early days this area was known as “the Hill”, and was the highest point on the Island, before it was levelled.

-“Red Beach” is a name carried over from the War Years when Australian and US troops practiced beach landing craft training.

-Australia’s first Opera was written by Emily Coungeau in her grand home built in 1915 , still standing in Banya Street, Bongaree.

-In the 1960’s an Ionospheric Research Centre was established by UQ on Bribie Island to study the behaviour of Radio signals.

-In 1968 the former operator of the Bribie car ferry service was required to pay

$500,000 for unpaid back taxes.

-When the Bribie Island Bridge was officially opened to traffic in October 1963 a grand Ball was held at Bongaree.

Bribie Island is wonderful place to live, and has always had strong sense of community and a desire to preserve the unique nature of “Island Life” which may be in danger of becoming lost in our greater Regional structure .

Over the years the residents of Bribie Island made three very determined , but in each case unsuccessful, attempts to break away from Caboolture Shire and establish Bribie Island as its own Shire. These attempts at secession were in 1914, 1932 and 1967, reflecting various periods of significant growth and change over the years.

Sunshine Coast Historian and Journalist Stan Tutt made this comment about the area: “It might not be too much to claim, Pumicestone Passage and Bribie Island, contain more history, written and unwritten, than any other place in Queensland.”

CAN YOUR DOG SWIM

By Yvonne Bishop

Summer is here and that means long beautiful warm days. What better way to spend it then down at the beach or Bribie Island Pumistone Passage or even lying around the swimming pool with your best four legged friend.

But can he swim? Everyone assumes that dogs are natural swimmers. Not necessarily.

The statistics show that one in every 1,000 dogs drowns. Even the singer, Pink has lost her beloved bulldog, Elvis to drowning when he fell into their swimming pool.

The rules for safety around water should apply to pets as it does for children. Supervision is essential.

Starting early with your puppy in swimming lessons will build a confident dog in the water. Exposure before three months is best. Go slowly if he shows fear, ease of and don’t force or throw your puppy in. You want your puppy to have a positive experience around water.

Page 14

When at the beach let him walk in the water and walk around. This way, they get accustomed to the feel of buoyancy and may feel relaxed to start swimming. Some dogs may need a life jacket to help build confidence.

These can be bought through large pet shops.

A life jacket is necessary if you take them boating. Realise that not all dogs like water or are strong swimmers.

It is also very important to teach dogs how to get out of the pool by encouraging them to swim to the steps and jump out, so if they do fall in they can swim to the steps and get out. You can install a plastic ramp at the side of the pool. It is a curved and textured plastic pontoon called a Scamper Ramp.

Safety tips: • Build confidence • Supervise • Fence them out • Be water safe • Install a ramp or show the steps • Learn first aid.

Happy training, Yvonne.

Pet Care

Kit For Cats

Most cats do not enjoy a veterinary visit. However, I have some tips on how you can help. A half hour prior to your veterinary visit, confine your cat in either a bathroom or cat carrier. Top-opening cat carriers are best to use as your cat can be examined and even have needles and worm pills, all while calmly hunkered down inside. It really works, even for the most skittish cats. A top-opening cat carrier is essential kit for all cat owners.

Hair of the Monkey Cocktail With the holiday season upon us all, I will share a favourite Sandstone Point Vet cocktail recipe. But first consider: what does a monkey have for a hangover? Hair-of-the-monkey, of course! A hair-of-the-monkey is made by blending together one over-ripe banana, a half tray of ice, and 2 nips of ouzo. Garnish with mint leaves or cinnamon. Try it, it is very refreshing.

WORLDS TOP NON-PROFIT ORGANISATIONS Barry Clark - Rotary Club of Bribie Isand

There are literally thousands of nonprofit organisations in the world doing amazing work in almost every field you can imagine.

These range from Medicine & Health to Animal Welfare, Art and Science, Environment and Humanity ,Conservation and Community Service.

Many of them are organisations we are all familiar with, while others are virtually unknown unless that is your personal interest.

An extensive and comprehensive global survey has recently been completed to rank the worlds most respected and reputable not-for-profit organisations.

The measures were based on enquiries and information searches on the web sites and other digital communications sources of each organisation, using 7 different measured criteria.

From this initial screening the 500 most well regarded non profit organisations were identified, and from this long list a final ranking of the top

100 was determined by applying a onethird weighted score based on Social media, Overall Website rankings and Charity Navigator rating.

The worlds top 100 non profit organisations were thus identified, and it is a very revealing and surprising list.

Top ranked is “Human Rights Watch” with the “United Nations Childrens Fund” and “Doctors without Borders” also in the top five.

Ranked at number 6 in the world is the Rotary Foundation of Rotary International.

Members of the Rotary Club of Bribie Island, and the many local people who support their fundraising for International work, are delighted with this outcome.

The Rotary Foundation is funded solely by voluntary contributions from members and friends who support its mission to advance world understanding, goodwill and peace.

Grants from the Rotary Foundation are used throughout the world carry out sustainable humanitarian projects and

provide scholarships and professional training opportunities that promote peace, flight disease, provide clean water, sustain mothers and children and strengthen local economies.

The Rotary Foundation is a worldwide leader in the long running efforts to eradicate Polio through its partnership with the World Health Organisation, UNICEF and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

When Rotary launched its PolioPlus program 30 years ago in 1985 more than 350,000 people were afflicted with Polio each year, and the disease was endemic in more than 125 countries.

Over the past 30 years over 2,500,000,000 children have been immunized, reducing the incidence of Polio by 99.9% and eradicating it fom all but three countries.

This is a remarkable achievement and Rotary will soon be able to declare the entire world Polio free ....forever.

The Rotary Foundation also funds the training of hundreds of “Peacemakers” through the Rotary Peace Fellows program at Universities around the world. Through academic training, study and practice the fellows become leaders who promote peace and conflict resolution in communities around the world.

For the Rotary International Foundation to be ranked as number 6 in the world, out of hundreds of non rofit organisations surveyed, is a tribute to the hard work and determination of Rotarians around the world.

Other well known non profit organisations were much further down the Top 100 list including Save the Children at No.19, the World Wildlife

Fund at No.35, Ronald McDonald House at No.44, World Vision at No. 57, Greenpeace at No.64 , Oxfam International at No. 82 and Lions Clubs International at No. 92.

Continues to provide choice and variety in it’s program

The Centre hosts a variety of theme days, entertainers and social activities every month of the year but November and December are particularly busy and packed with a wide range of choice for our clients. Our Melbourne Cup luncheon was a great day enjoyed by the many who attended. In December we are hosting a range of Xmas activities commencing with our annual Xmas party to be held at the Bribie RSL and the month will finish off with our Centre Xmas Lunch.

Our regular events on the calendar continue through-out November and December including Bingo, Wii Nintendo, Knitting and craft Groups, Floor golf, bowls and darts, card games and computer games. Each Tuesday an exercise class is held for our older guests while our young people have

music, drama and dance classes twice each week.

Our Carer Support Group meets on the Third Wednesday of every month and is a great opportunity for carers to meet up with others and have a well-earned break from their role as Carer.

The Centre provides group social activities for those over 65 years, those who have dementia specific needs and younger people with a disability aged between 18 & 65 years.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN Real Strength Top of the mornin’ to ya and Happy New Year! I hope everyone reading this be it local or visitor has had a splendiferous time over Christmas. As for the rest of the holiday period I bid all things relaxing, re-juvinating and re-storing for you and your family.

Speaking about R words, this time of year brings always brings around an opportunity to ‘resolute’ and have a clean slate for us to write upon our goals, hopes, dreams and aspirations. I love it!

While a lot of goals could be physical, I.e, get fit, eat right, get enough sleep (bring on the zzZZ’s!), I’ve been thinking, as I always do, about the goals of the heart. This year I want to endeavour to preserve a fit, a healthy and, a strong heart.

I can’t help it, when I hear the word strength I think of muscles. Muscles and masculinity. But of course, looking beyond face-value, there is so much to that word that I don’t even understand. There is no doubt that we are attracted to whatever strength is; it makes us feel secure and protected, like there is power behind you. But in a very physical world, how do we even know what real strength is?

I’m not a qualified PT or anything but I do come from a family of gym junkies, so you could say I know a little bit about working out. Muscles are formed from the repair work done after strenuous activity in a target area. I guess the body goes, “Oh okay, you did a little more than usual today so I will make bigger muscles for you so that when you wake up in the morning you can do the job better”. Pretty cool body we have! However, we would never get stronger if we didn’t exercise in a way that would stimulate growth. Ah, but I’m not just talking about getting big lats am I? In the same way we train to get strong bodies, we need to train to get strong hearts. But Nikita, what do you mean by ‘strong heart’? I believe having a strong heart is being able to go through things and come out better because of it and it begins with the training.

More often than not we mistake real strength for weakness. For example, I really love the new campaign that Dove has brought out called ‘Dove Men+Care’. Look it up! I love it because it shows real men talking about what makes them feel strong. And it was all the gooey stuff that we don’t hear enough of: “Playing aeroplane with a son”, Marrying your soul-mate”, “Being with family”.

Nawww. Men, this is the stuff of real valour.

Sometimes the hardest of things to say or do in this life (especially in-front of certain people) are the best things for us. They make us real. Okay people, Family Feud time, what are some hard but extremely healthy things to do? I’ve a list.

To: • Say sorry • Admit you were wrong • Let it go

• Move to the back so other people can go before you • Doing something embarrassing or out of your comfort zone because it makes someone you love happy • Being completely yourself no matter who is around you (Um that doesn’t mean slob in trackie dacks and pizza in hair!)

• Doing what you know is right, right by you, even when other people around you won’t understand • Saying no • Waiting • Giving someone what they need not just what they want • Loving someone in response to them hurting you • Showing your feelings • Saying, “I love you”.

Hard as they be, each time you can do these things, you become stronger.

Twas just two weeks after Christmas and all through the town People were standing on scales and wearing a frown They had loved all the ham and the turkey and beer But suddenly all of their clothes were just too small to wear!

So out came the resolutions with promises said About running and walking and dawn rising from bed No more drinking of alcohol or eating of cream No more smokes to be had no more fags would be seen Thanks to gift cards and presents the gizmos were ready Measuring food, fat and fitness the big numbers were scary Strapped round wrists and round bellies they told you the truth So you sounded like Alf when you gasped and said “Struth!”

Until next time, Nikita

Aunt Doris squeezed into pink sports bra, leggings and hat Asking poor Uncle Steve if they made her look fat Uncle Steven threw on short shorts and new joggers in green They all glowed in the dark, some things shouldn’t be seen Dad and Mum joined a studio with weights and fun classes They had loved their first time thanks to a couple of free passes At Fit Beyond 50 the four met twice a week without fail And lost weight without drinking strange goo made of kale As the year raced along their lives changed such a lot Filled with happiness, fun as so much fitter they got They toned and they strengthened, they laughed and they moved No more aches, no more pains, yes their health had improved So here is your chance to end up like these four All you really need now is to move a bit more.

BECOME THE BEST YOU FOR LIFE!

We often start the new year with a resolution that THIS YEAR we will…..fill in the gap…!

DON’T SPEND ANOTHER YEAR MISERABLE STOP HIDING FROM YOUR MIRROR!

What is the recipe for success I hear you ask?

Why do some of us succeed where others fail again and again?

The great yoga sage Patanjali sited 3 crucial steps in his ‘Kriya Yoga’ Path towards happiness and spiritual enlightenment, they also happen to be the last 3 Niyamas we’ve been looking at as part of our yoga philosophy series each month.

Cathy

It’s A New Year, It’s Time For A Better You Do you want a New Year full of health and fun or embarrassing photos and tight clothes!

No More silly diets that make you gain more weight when you stop.

Think of something NOW you would really like to change in your life for the better this year and we’ll take a brief look at how these 3 Niyamas may apply:

ISHWARA PRANIDANA/SURRENDER – Do you feel you are the do-er and the only one in control? Ishwara pranidana invites us to relinquish our ‘control’ to a higher power, whatever that is for you.. It means that through commitment and self enquiry, we learn to tap into a higher power, call it your intuition, and take the right action for the highest good and in doing that we can NOW surrender the fruits of our labours, without clinging to expectations, trusting in the process.

As with all training, it will be hard at first but the results are definitely worth it. Let me see those defined hearts people!

YOUR BEST YEAR EVER!

Do You Want 2016 to Look Different to 2015?

SWADIYAHA/SELF ENQUIRY – We are very adept at making excuses for staying just as we are. Swadiyaha demands that we carve out space to pierce this veil of delusion with truth, through meditative self enquiry and scrupulous screening of our behaviours and intentions.

Courage, bravery, valour and strength are noble and attractive qualities, however they don’t always come through obvious methods. In-fact, more-often than not they come through surrendering your pride (being broken down), letting it go (resting), and simply saying to yourself, “Nah, this person is worth it”, and loving them anyway (muscle formation!).

By the way this isn’t negating pain or hurt from a wrong-doing but it is forgiving so YOU can have freedom and peace. Mhm brother and sister, this be the way to a strong heart and an authentic character.

Gail Goodair’s amazing, blurred action shot “Weekend Pursuits” was the winning photo.

The club champion for the year with the highest score was Marj Webber with 552 points.

Vince Bowser was second with 483 points.

Vince Bowser did very well this month, winning three of the five categories. His “Sunsets” and “Three sisters” won the two mono divisions and “Waterlilies” took out the Open Colour.

Gordon Bentzen was third with 472 points.

Ron LeHuray’s beautiful “Lilac Blooms” was the winner in the Open Colour.

Three of our members attended the judging of the Tewantin Shield photography competition where our club had entered as a group. This was held in Nambour. Many of our photos scored very well.

Our judge for the month was Georgie Caldwell a PSQA accredited judge who travelled from the Sunshine Coast for the judging. During her critique along with her wonderful sense of humour, she was able to give us valuable tips on how better to present our work. Georgie joined us for supper after the meeting.

Each month we have an exercise in post processing. Six members participated this time and it was interesting to see the different, individual, techniques applied to the set photo.

The Bribie Winelander By now you will all have had your Christmas and New Year Celebrations and have made the usual promises for the year, less drinking, less food and less indulgence at least for the first week of the new year! The year has been a tough one in the local industry, although you would never believe it with the amount of wine in the stores and new labels on the shelves, new varieties and pretty sharp prices, but remember many of these labels belong to the group where you shop as they endeavor to retain you loyalty.

However export markets haven't yet recovered despite the lowering of The Australian Dollar against The U.S. Dollar and sales of imported wines into Australia continue to grow despite local wineries introducing new varieties into the market place.

If you are planning a trip to The United States any time soon you may be in for a shock when you peek at your credit card statements after making that special purchase or enjoying a fine wine with a great meal, a thirty dollar steak you enjoyed last night has just cost you $45 Australian.

We spent November traveling across The States from California to Texas, Colorado and Nevada and out of habit I scoured the shelves looking to see what Australian wines are available and to be honest the shelves were indeed bare, apart from a very good presence of Yellow Tail the selection on offer was meager.

It came as a surprise to find that Texas has a vibrant wine industry and is reputed to be the oldest wine growing area in America first being planted by The Spanish. It is also the second most visited region outside California and we were treated to a week-end at a town called Fredericksburg which is about an hour and a half north of San Antonio. What an eye opener it turned out to be, there were wineries galore, varying from small roadside operations to large wineries, as large as anything here in Australia,

but the interesting thing that was missing was rows and rows of grapes, there were indeed very few but Texas wine sales exceed 12 million cases annually.

The majority of grapes are grown in Texas but not necessarily in the region where the cellar doors are and as in Australia as long as at least 85% of the grapes are grown in Texas the wines are labeled as such. Anyway if you are visiting Texas anytime in the future make an effort to visit Fredericksberg, the town is beautiful and for a cost there is a shuttle service from the town center to the outlying cellar doors, but failing that many of the wineries have tasting rooms in the high street and you are even allowed to wander the shops with a glass of your favorite tipple in your hand, which is very civilized.

However you won't be seeing any Texas wine here in Australia as due to rather strange liquor laws the wine can only be sold in Texas and there are even restrictions as to where you can send the wines in The United States should you purchase them, so you should check carefully before ordering. It was mentioned that a regular visitor to a particular winery was President Bush who took a liking to some of the wines and ordered a few cases for The White House. As the District Capital wasn't on the list of areas that allowed the wine to be delivered to the winery got into trouble! If you have the internet have a look at The Grape Creek Winery, this operation could hold it's own with any similar winery anywhere in the world.

Another interesting observation is that the use of corks in America wines was almost 100% even though in the more commercial cheaper wines they use an awful plastic thing. The quality of real cork has certainly improved and I noticed even Yellow Tail was being supplied with a cork enclosure. I wonder if this lack of cork has contributed to the decline in sales of Australian Wine as it could be concluded by the

American Wine drinkers that the screw top is only fit for lower quality wines? However New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is sill under screw top, but this product seems to be a world wide favorite.

Two regions are responsible for producing very large quantities of wine and are the engine room of the Australian Wine Industry.

The Riverland in South Australia where large companies as Angove's, Accolade Wines, Treasury Wine Estates, Banrock Station and Kingstone Estate have the wineries. Further up The River Murray you will find Trentham Estate, Lindemans and Chateau Mildura.

The Riverina in New South Wales is home to Calabria Family Wines, McWilliams, De Bortoli, Casella, Riverina Estate and Miranda amongst others.

These two regions are responsible for over 50% of wine production in Australia and was the original home to the “bag in the box” or wine cask, an Angove's invention, that introduced many of you to wine drinking from the mid 1960's until only recently when many of the wineries decided to concentrate on selling wines by the bottle as casks had become unprofitable.

Over the last twenty years or so instead of pouring uncontrolled amounts of water on the grapes with the intent of producing as much juice as possible without any thought to flavour the wineries in these areas now limit the amount of reticulation which in turn now results in quality wines that can compete with the more premium grape growing regions. The good thing are the wines are sold at prices that are very price competitive giving The Riverina and Riverland areas the edge when it comes to everyday drinking wines.

Look for labels such as Angove's Long Row Range, Calabria's Richland Range, De Bortoli Sacred Hill Range, McWilliams Hanwood Estate Range, Casella Yellow Tail Range, and the

Banrock Station Range, you will always get outstanding value for your money. I noticed the other day The Houghton Line Range, one of my favorite recommendations, at $7 per bottle, you won't get a better red or white wine at this price.

And as wine author Hubrecht Duijker discovered when in traveling through Bordeaux: Now and then you meet people in Bordeaux who swear they do not drink. Even if they consume 4 litres of wine a day, this is not regarded as drinking, yet 1 dram of whisky certainly is.

Plus an old French saying: When the cork is pulled the wine must be drunk or should that be in Australia when the cap is twisted and removed?

Christmas Dilemma on the Canal

Judges of the Pacific Harbour Christmas Lights Boat Parade were left in awe after Christmas was bought to life on Saturday December 19. Boaties and residents decked out their vessels and abodes, vying to be named best decorated boat or house of the night.

At the end of the parade no unanimous decision could be made about who took out the crowns and official bragging rights of the canal, thanks to the quality of the lighting extravaganza.

Pacific Harbour Residential Community Association (PHRCA) President and “Best-decorated boat” judge Jeff Wall said this year’s event exceeded everyone’s expectations.

“We had to review images of all the boats in the parade; the effort and dedication of those involved was just incredible - it’s hard to pick just one winner,” Jeff said.

A decision was finally made that the best creatively decorated boat

was awarded to Scott Hansen with “Chaperone”. Runners up were “Tuff Duck”, “Capathia”, “Hakuna Matata”, “Kuzi” and “Time Out”.

Home owners gave boaties a run for their money with the canal banks

adorned with festively decorated homes glowing and twinkling over the water.

PHRCA Committee member and “Best-decorated house” judge Robbie Robinson said he was overwhelmed by the task at hand.

“The lights this year are even better than any previous year, residents have obviously made an extra special effort if that’s possible,” “More houses than last year have joined in the festive fun and really put some effort into innovative designs everybody should win” Said Robbie.

The parade was preceded with Santa delivering 800 bags of lollies in the afternoon aboard the Volunteer Marine Rescue’s Energex Bribie III to the children waiting on pontoons and in canal parks.

Residents John and Jeanette Price said the parade got everyone in the festive spirit, shouting “Merry Christmas” and “Ho Ho Ho” from houses, pontoons, bridges and parks as the flotilla cruised the canals.

“We would like to express our sincere thanks to all who took part in this annual event, which to us, shows the true spirit of the celebration of Christmas – friends and families gathering together to celebrate the wonderful community of Bribie Island,” said John and Janette Price.

“We will be cruising the canal again on Christmas Eve to narrow down the choice and make a decision on “Bestdecorated house” - don’t forget to keep those lights on,” Robbie said.

The Cycling Debate As cycling becomes an increasingly popular sport on Bribie Island, locals are left bickering about where they belong - the road or the path.

Bribie Island residents shared their views on our Facebook page, with one woman saying it is not only bicycles but also motorised scooters.

“I don’t think you will find enough ‘bike paths’ on the island for cyclists to actually get where they may wish to go,” Missy Kit said.

“Yes, there are bike paths for leisure riding but both footpaths and bike paths are in short demand in many areas of the island.

“This also affects the elderly with their motorised scooters etc. The bike paths and foot paths are only along the foreshores.

“There is a very obvious lack of them in the side streets for use of children, the elderly or cyclists.”

Local woman Tracey Shew said she didn’t mind the cyclists on the walking paths.

“But it would be nice if you could warn people you are coming… and it’s not the young kids who do it, it’s the older people who should have more ‘common’ sense,” she said.

Local man Phil Baker made his view

very obvious saying “the road is no place for pushies [sic], no way”.

But even the cyclists face their own problems with local facilities.

“My husband often rides his bike to work for exercise,” local woman Heather May said.

“But the main problem for him is trying to get over the bridge, especially at night when people are illegally fishing off the bridge.

“There is not a lot of room to start with but you get them on the bridge with their fishing gear and he has to manually steer it over the bridge.

“Because of this he’s stopped riding his bike to work which he really needed to do for his health.”

While general road rules apply to cyclists, they also have specific laws to obey.

A common offence specific to cyclists is failing to give way to pedestrians on a footpath or shared path.

Cyclists must also avoid being a traffic hazard at all times - meaning they must not ride into the path of a driver or pedestrian.

Busy Fingers Fundraisers Inc. Busy Fingers Fundraisers Inc. Committee, Staff and Volunteers hope our supporters had a Very Merry Christmas and A Safe and Happy New Year.

2015 was very busy with the planning of the shop extension at 38 Cotterill Ave, Bongaree, which is now underway, and we wish to thank Les Struthers (Architect) for his patience and dedication to this project, which has been over 3 years in the making. We also would like to thank Rob Hartmann of Hartmann & Cunington for coming on board to build us a larger shop, ensuring that we can raise the necessary funds for the benefit and support of the Bribie Community.

We sincerely thank all the volunteers, who give their time to help us support the many community associations, schools and sporting bodies on the island. These volunteers work very hard throughout the year and without them we would not be able to donate much needed items. Listed below is an example of the wishes we have been able to fulfil this year, we support the Kindergartens, Schools, Sporting Clubs, VMR, Hospice, Diabetes Support, SES, Police and the Bribie Island Retirement Village & Aged Care to name a few.

The B.I primary school received a much needed Electronic Notice Board, the Girl Guides now have 2 newly

renovated bathrooms and the Aged Care required new regency chairs and an electrical shower chair. These items are quite expensive and it is our donors of preloved goods and our customers that help us make this possible..... Thank You. The shop was closed between Christmas and New Year, as usual it was a hectic time for after-hours donations, for which we thank those who left us some wonderful preloved items. But once again there were the few who used our driveway as a rubbish dump. The first week of each year our truck spends more time going to the dump than they do pick-ups and deliveries, this creates so many problems for our manager and her staff. The dump is not far past the bridge and we would appreciate everyone using it this year, please only leave clean resaleable items.

Many thanks to our dedicated staff and committee for their hard work over the past year and thank you for all your support throughout the year, helping us to continue to support our small and close community. Volunteers are always needed, so if you have a few hours spare and want to make new friends please contact Sonia on 3408 1014 or pop into the shop for a chat.

GAME FISHING MORETON ISLAND

By Richard Whetlor

My prize catch Just as I was leaving Jai’s house her husband Matt arrives back from work excited, raving on about going fishing tomorrow and asks me do I want to go game fishing as there is a space left?

I’ve never been game fishing before and have always wanted too, so lucky to be my own boss, but I check with Jai and Bee (the real boss :0) if its OK work wise? Yep all good so YEE HAA I’m going game fishing, YES! The plan is to meet tomorrow at 3:30 am on Phil B’s Boat in Banksia. I go home and I’m feeling excited about the big day out game fishing.

Wednesday 23 rd December 3:00 am: Up early and excited I’m going game fishing for the first time, brilliant! I get to Banksia and meet Phil B, Troy and friends, Matt’s running

My Spotted Mackerel caught on TGA 30 and Green Skirt Lure

Our view of Moreton Island

the west side of Moreton Island, it’s sunny and blue skies, what a view, what a buzz.

OK, so were at the 60 metre deep mark and the rods are in! In go the teasers one is an oblong shape with mirrors on each of the 4 sides and the other sits out behind the boat too with wheel like devices either side that spin to create bubbles and splashing. I’m up first on rod watch, Matty passes me the belt which I put on and wait eagerly watching the rods. Not knowing what if anything we are about to catch. There are some seriously big fish out there.

Not long and bang were on, the reel starts buzzing and Matty grabs the rod gives it a tug, winds it in a bit and passes it to me.

Here we go I’m reeling something in, feels Eye eye Captain! Phil B up Matt B getting the gear ready pretty big, I lower the on top deck rod as I’m reeling in and then pull back and start winding in again, just like you see on the fishing programmes!

I get the fish to the rear of the boat Bribie Island – BBQ Boat Hire – Fishing Boat Hire and Troy Gaf’s it into the boat, a spotted Mackerel just over a metre long and caught on a green skirt. What a buzz, I can see myself getting into this sport.

We carry on trawling for quite a few hours Fishing Boat but never got another bite for the day.

How lucky am I to get out for the day game fishing and get the only catch! I have the buzz and cant wait to get out there again, cheers to Phil B, Matt B, Troy and the gang it was an awesome day out. Until next time.

SPINNAKER SOUND MARINA SPINNAKER DRIVE, SANDSTONE POINT

FISHING BRIBIE

By Vin Donovan

With summer now in full swing and the east Australian current pushing more water our way, we should see increasing numbers of summer species over the oncoming months.

The current runs from south to north during the winter months and from the north to south in the summer months.

Whales, sharks, dolphins, and fish all use these highway of currents to migrate up and down the east coast of Australia.The current brings nutrient rich water, food and minerals, to supply and feed the entire marine ecosystem.

Some species will spend their entire life in and around the local area and Moreton Bay, not having to travel or migrate. Some species will definately have a particular season or time in the year when they are more prolific.

Moreton Bay Marine Park is an absolutely amazing marine ecosystem that we all should protect and preserve for generations to come.There are several marine park go slow zones and a number of no-fishing or green zones in and around the Moreton Bay Marine Park. Ensure you know clearly where these all are. Always take all your rubbish and old fishing line home with you. If you are camping in one of the many designated camp zones on Bribie Island or Moreton Island please ensure you leave the site clean and tidy, take

8-15m in the bay. Once again fresh bait and good quality pots definately will catch more crabs.

Outside fishing once again has produced some quality fish. The 100m line has produced plenty of school sized wahoo, dolphin fish and tuna.

The reefs and shoals off the cape have had a great variety of reef fish and pelagics caught over the last month.

Green jobfish, redthroats, moses perch, husser, snapper, cod and much more are being taken.

Lil vin and a nice mid 60cm flaty taken on hardbody... all your rubbish with you, and don’t destroy what you come to enjoy.

Now as we know fishing on Bribie Island is always good.Tides, moons, winds, tackle, techniques and locations all play a big part in whether you catch nothing or whether you catch plenty.

So be more particular about certain conditions or tactics used.Start writing up a fishing diary and predict the next months fishing or species you should target according to your last year’s diary. Trust me it definitely works.

Date, rigs, tides, moon, conditions, winds and results will give you a good indication of what’s happening next year around that time.

Mud crabs should gradually increase and become bigger and fuller over the next couple of months. Hopefully over Jan, Feb and March we get some good rain to flush those big bucks out of their mangrove holes. Using fresh bait and good quality pro pots will definitely help catch more crabs. Spring tides around the new and full moon crab best.

Plenty of school sized wahoo off the cape hitting skirts and lures hard...

Generally the annual run on prawns dosn’t really start until the end of January into Febuary but definitely March and April will see most of the bigger banana prawns being caught.All of the passage creeks have prawns in them at the moment.These prawns double in size every month as they shed their skin once every month or two, dependent on species. Using a good sounder, top pocket cast net and keeping an eye out for skipping

Once again the current has been roaring.Trolling skirts, hardbody and swim baits has accounted for most of the pelagics. Yellowtail kingfish have been in plague proportions on most of the shoals. Nice snapper, pearlies and some great size tuskies are coming from Caloundra wide to deep tempest around the 80m-120m line. Big plastics have accounted for most of the bigger fish. The bay still has plenty of school and spotted mackeral on the chew and they should hang around for a few months yet.Some nice school sized Spanish mackeral are being caught around the shallows off Caloundra and through the back 30m dropoff on the back of the wild banks.The two artificial reefs off the top of Moreton and the Wild Banks will continue to fish better and better the longer they are there for. The bait around there at the moment is unbelievable.

Local young lad harry with his nice mahi mahi.... prawns will ensure you’re guaranteed a good feed.The last 3 hours of the runout tide is the best, as the nutrients and food all drain off the mud and sandbanks. Over the next couple of months when the prawns really start to fire is one of the best times to fish the estuaries and creeks.

There will be a number of different species, all taking advantage of the feeding frenzy on the prawns.

Grunter, jacks, threadies, whiting, bream, flatties, cod and trevally all cannot resist a feed on fresh prawns.

Sand crabs are about all year round.

Generally in summer when the water tempature is up, they prefer the deeper water. Try crabbing

Anyway keep an eye on the weather, stay safe and alert out at sea, enjoy your time in the marine park and I hope you guys all catch plenty.

Bring on 2016 to fish hard….
