there are lots of good spots close to nambour although nambour itself is missing a bit. Dam at maleny half an hour away where you can paddle for bass. Noosa system has heaps of opps, there are guides you can use to familiarise yourself with the system, basss, jack occasional salmon barra flattie etc
maroochy river half an hour or less, good for juvenile jew, big jack, flathead, bream etc
go out from mooloolaba for reefies if you're lucky, also mackeral etc available offshore and other pelagics. hour or less north to tincanbay and sandy strait good for estuary species and pelagics or through wide bay bar, also hervey bay 2.5 hours north and three+ hours north to monduran and 5 to awoonga although both of those are lacking a little as I understand at the moment. Also bourumba dam at Imbil only half an hour away for bass, toga, yellowbelly. Mary river cod etc
Yeah i'd say it's a pretty good spot all up.
good luck jim
