A little birdy told me that Premier Beattie will be looking at pacifying the greens by closing some 80% of the Cape to fishing.
Isn't tourism in Qld going to go ahead in leaps and bounds?

Have to wait and see. The pro netters reckon they're going to work around it as they don't believe it'll be policed anyway. I've been pulled up once in 15 years and that was only because we were filming at the time - the inspectors were being sticky beaks.
