I am starting to wonder if the fight is worth it. Seems no one is interested. Does not matter what you do it seems you are met with apathy, opposition, criticism and out right attacks on your own lifestyle. Maybe I should just sit back on my arse like everyone else and watch PEW take over the world, and stick it up those trying to do the right thing.
Nearly 50000 members here and from my calulations we get positive feedback from about 0.001%
I guess everyone is happy to give up there fishing lifestyle.

We'll try this again as the last post seemed to disapear. We've all seen the signs at Fisherman Is. Saying No Parking and No Fishing. I thought I would follow up with the Port of Brisbane Corporation and find out exactly what is happening. The POBC have released articles stating while the construction of the duplicate bridge beside Capt. Bishop bridge is about to commence there is a total restriction zone in the area. As from May 2010 the fisherman Is. boat ramp will not have access to the Brisbane river via the passage for a period of twelve months. I have spoken to 3 people there including the project manager and I've asked for actual documentation to be E-mailed to me but I'm yet to see it although the closure has been advertised in Quest newspapers 3/2/2010. This not only effects river anglers but all who normally access the bay via the brisbane river. I have asked on behalf of the land based angler weather he will eventually have access to the rock walls where many have... [Read More]
