I reckon the numbers are on the rise and their getting more game. I've had a few incounters now, where I thought they were stalking the boat (or whats in it) If you tell the DPI or Np's they just say, there is nothing they can do and just keep of the croc's way. But it a worrying when a 5 meter fat dog pop's up beside the boat. :o

Heard on the grapevine an Eco Tour operator is feeding the crocs up Prossy way for the tourists..Wouldn't like to be the next poor fisherman to pull up in a 12ft tinny at the spot he's doing it:) The crocs would be lining up around you for a free feed.. Condition an animal enough and problems will arise.. Look at the dingo population on Fraser??

So Fin-Addict, what was the culprit of the shortening that big barra of yours anyway?? 12kg of head and shoulders is a pretty bloody big barra!!!

A dirty rotten unseen shark are my thoughts >:( Got the pics on disc today. I'll have a go at posting them now

When holidaying up around Prossy I saw a guy on a mud flat with a croc hooked onto his lure! The croc was doing the ol death roll - guy must have wanted his lure back pretty bad! It's bad enough just launching the boat on the ramp having branches brush past your legs - you just never know!

[Fin_Addict]

Not the best place to take a refreshing dip ;D The hole down near Stony Broke prodced the the goods Smithy..Gold Spot cod were the dominant species taken..Even nailed some Grass Sweetlip and juvenile Reds.. Had the auscam cover done by Ray at Sundown.. The pic was taken 2weeks ago in the Gregory River (20km approx) south of Bowen..
