TV program on ABC

[Lucky_Phill]

There is a program on the ABC this Thursday night called, Catalyst, and in that program is a segment on a natural phenomenon that has been creating havoc for Trawlers and other boats in far northern waters of Australia.

8pm Thursday 18th May.

I have heard about these things from pro fishermen, and they believe they are underground freshwater springs. Maybe worth a look if you can pull yourselves away from " reality TV ". ::) :P

Cheers Phill

thanks Phill, I don't mind Catalyst

[DICER]

Sounds interesting - I'd be glad to get a fill in on this, as I'm not in Australia.

Catalyst is a good show.

You learn some interesting things from Catalyst

Thanks for the tip.

Might be about "Wonky holes" When these things are flowing they really bring the fish in and trawlers do stay away from them.

[Lucky_Phill]

Yep, Wonky Holes is the story ;)

Some say that these fresh water springs are the cause of lost ships in the Bermuda Triangle, the freshwater has a lower density and when the ship/boat runs over that area it simply sinks.

Should make good viewing.
