Come Play at Shoalwater Bay (Part 1) Part One: Part Two: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kgZshNCqcw This mini documentary was directed and produced by David Bradbury, who took me on in my student years as his emergency editor. It has been created in protest against the military wargames held in Shoalwater Bay, Nth Queensland. "Shoalwater Bay (SWB), 70 km north of Rockhampton, Queensland, is a biologically diverse and beautiful coastal treasure of 400,000 hectares, including beaches, harbours and coral islands. Public sentiment changed when, in 2005, the Australia Government entered agreements with the USA providing long-term access and joint use of Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA). This agreement ties Australia to the rapid military build up in the Pacific, particularly in Guam, a US territory to our north. The "Talisman Sabre 2007" (TS07) exercise is a result. As part of the Australian--USA Joint Combined Training Centre, SWB is one of the US Pentagon's largest and most important training and bombing ranges in the Asia-Pacific region. There has not been disclosure of these agreements or the weaponry to be used in Australia." Source: http://www.shoalwaterbay.org/ Tags: Shoalwater Bay military talisman sabre bradbury wargames |

Shoalwater bay Fantastic spot with some of the biggest GT's we have ever seen. May spotted close to the 150lb mark but catching them in the strong current and reef is almost impossible. 130lb braid is not enough to stop these monsters. Only accessible by water this is a spot for the GT fanatic. Tags: wahoo fly popper jig gt dogtooth spearfishing coral sea fishing australia nomad plane adventure holiday |

I was Only 19 - TJ Dedication This song was written in the 70's, by a bloke called John Schuman and performed by him in a band called "Redgum". It became a national hit especially among Veterans almost immediately. It is still performed today whenever Vietnam Vets get together for a concert. Royalties from sales were donated to the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia. Just a few things that may help you understand the lyrics better. 'Puckapunyal' was a recruit training center 'Cunungra' is a Jungle Warfare training center 'Shoalwater' was a place that the Army used for Military exercises The 'SLR' was the personal weapon mostly used in Vietnam. 'Vung Tau' & 'Nui Dat' were Aussie bases in Vietnam. 'V B' is 'Victorian Bitter' a very popular Aussie beer. 'ANZAC' is the acronym for the Australian New Zealand Army Corps - see 'And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda - ANZAC Legend Begins' for more on that subject matter.

The Herd - I Was Only 19 (Redgums) Mum, Dad and Denny were some amongst many who turned up to see the passing out parade at Puckapunyal Seemed every man and his mongrel watched cadets stumble on the long march to the Viet jungle "Oh Christ", I mumbled as I drew that card And my mates came to slap me on the back with due regard We were the sixth battalion, yep next to tour we did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left, rest assured Seemed half of Townsville turned out to see us leave And they lined the footpaths as we marched to the quay The papers wrote it up like you would not believe but we were looking to the future for a fast reprieve The newspaper clippings show us young, strong and clean rockin' slouch hats, slung SLRs and greens God help me, I was only nineteen From Vung Tau in black helicopters The chinook pilots seemed relieved at Nui Dat when they dropped us Feels like months running on and off landing pads letters to Dad 'cause it's like, man, he's sad But he can't see the tents that we call home cans of VB and pin-ups of chicks off TV The noise, the mosquitoes and the heat surprising like the first time you see an agent orange horizon [Chorus] So please can you tell me doctor why I still can't get to sleep The scar's left in me? Night time's just a jungle, dark and a barking M16 that keeps saying "rest in peace" And what the hell's this rash that comes and goes I don't suppose you can tell me what that means? God help me, I was only nineteen Sent off on a four-week long operation where every single step could be your last one On two legs it was sorta living hell falling with the shells, war within yourself But you wouldn't let your mates down 'til they had you dusted off so you closed your eyes and thought of something else Then someone yelled "contact!", another bloke swore we hooked in there for hours then a god almighty roar Then Frankie kicked a mine, the day that mankind kicked the moon God help me, he was going home in June And I can still see Frank with a can in his hand thirty-six hour leave in the bar at the Grand I can still hear Frank, a screaming mess of bleeding flesh, couldn't retrieve his legs The ANZAC legend neglected to mention the mud The fear, the blood, the tears, the tension Dad's recollection beyond comprehension didn't seem quite real until we were sent in The chaos and confusion, the fire and steel hot shrapnel in my back I didn't even feel God help me, I was only nineteen [Chorus] [2nd] So please can you tell me doctor, why I can't get to sleep I can't hardly eat? And the sound of the Channel Seven chopper still chills me to my feet still fuels my grief? And what's this rash that comes and goes like the dreams, can you tell me what that means? God help me, I was only nineteen Mum and Dad and Denny saw the passing out parade at Puckapunyal It was a long march from Cadets The sixth battalion was the next to tour It was me who drew the card we did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left [Chorus] [2nd repeated] Tags: Australian Hip Hop The Herd Was Only 19 |

Big GT's Shoalwater Bay is a massive Military training area on the Queensland Coast. Only accessible a few months a year and only by Boat it is truly unique. I think the best way to describe the fishing is action packed and diverse. We had a huge variety of fish caught, using a variety of styles and techniques. The variety of locations we fished was astounding, and the weather did everything from being perfect for 6 days straight, through to 50kn of wind and driving rain while we were safely anchored up a creek. We had a morning where we caught 3 GTs over 45kg, with the biggest around 55kg, and this in itself was truly astonishing. We finished the 2nd week with all dories fishing within 200m of each other, with a queenfish and tuna session that lasted for hours. Literally every cast was a fish of some description, and all on surface lures!! We fished in some new places that were just piscatorally and visually stunning. In fact it would be fair to say that visually, this area would have to be right up there with anywhere in the world for stunning backdrops to a fishing trip. The combination of fishing, great anchorages and incredible scenery has firmly cemented this location in the Nomad Sportfishing yearly schedule. With 4 GTs over 50kgs landed in the first 10 days fishing I think it's going to be tough to beat that record next year.
