Dad reckons fishing is 10% brains and 95% muscle, the rest is just good luck.
He's picking the wrong mushrooms mate.
And here I am thinking this was going to be another thread about a passage flatty that broke the mythical 50cm mark
I hear the lizards are big up that way but surely you don't need traps to catch a flatty.
Just spoke to Dept EHP. They have no record of current sightings or set traps in Ningi Creek.

I saw a croc in Ningi creek, it was feasting on a bunyip at the time.
Cheers adam
why are there signs up at inskip warning of estuarine crocodile sightings. yeah sure seems pretty unbelievable ..Originally Posted by bazza65
bit like barra in the clarence river .. or
seals at scarborough marina ..
Creatures are never found out of their normal habitat zones are they??
extremely unlikely there is one in ningi creek.. but its not impossible

But define normal? I remember reading once that pre settlement, crocs were common as far south as Coffs Harbour. Plenty of images on google of big crocs fished from the Logan in the early 1900s. At one point, crocs would have been common place in Moreton Bay and Ningi creek....
There used to be croc farm tourist places at beenleigh didn't there?
That would mean that even back in the eighties a croc could live and breed in our climate.
If it truly is warmer now then they will be even happier. I reckon they will come back.... what's to stop them?

I wouldn't be surprised to see a croc in Pumicestone Passage, Noosa River had one a few years ago that was verified.

I remember when just a little tacker in the late 50's my father coming home & saying to my mum " Well, love, Charlies pet croc's got too much for him so he's got rid of it"
Charlie lived at Dohles Rocks. I asked my Dad years later what he meant by "Got rid of it" but he wasn't sure whether it was killed or released.
