Urangan Peir - Sea side entertainment

Heading north, we visited a few spots to do laundry, Robbie spent all day in the hot sun fixing some electrics of the car.. he now claims he is a electrician and a mechanic.
We stopped in some small towns, and stayed in some national parks, nothing really to note there.

On Monday we went to a lovely little spot near Hervey Bay called Urangan Pier. The pier stretches for almost a kilometre, and is one of the longest in Australia. We strolled down there and noticed that there were many people with karts carrying all their fishing gear, 5-10 rods per person, buckets, nets, bait.. as we walked along the pier we looked over the railing into the water and saw the amazing amount of activity in the water. Giant trevally chasing schools of bait fish, people catching sting rays, flat head and whiting all over the place. This spot was obviously for game fishing as people were geared up to catch anything. At one point we noticed that the birds were getting in on the action by waiting for a fisherman to throw in his bait, and then diving under the water to grab the bait straight off the hook. Honestly you could stay there all day watching the activity on that Pier. Highly recommend a visit there.

Didn’t take any videos of the sea action, but Robbie put on a show for the camera xRead more
