lee,
Mate if you can drive past the shoalwater bay area without stopping for a pop then you would have to have blinkers on. This is one of the most beautiful places you will visit on the Queensland coast. There is an absolute mile of places to chase Gt's in the area. When you get there , believe me the spots stick out like dogs balls. There are some truly awsome fish to be caught (and released).
Shoalwater right through to the clara's. Check out some of Nomads stuff , as they charter to Shoalwater. Really impressive place.........
Just be aware of whether or not there is an army closure on when you come up this way as sometimes you aren't allowed anywhere near it.
Oh yea Northern end of fraser island, if you do your homework is home to some of the biggest GT's on earth.
