Additional Surfing Infos
 Walk out onto the sandbar at Pinkenba or Fisherman's Island. Before ya go check the Cruise ship/tankership schedule in the Courier Mail and make sure there are big ships scheduled to enter the port. Get a mini mal and wait for a tanker to pass and about 10 perfectly peeling 1 footer's will come through. get the third wave of the set... If ya miss it you will have to wait a long time for the next one. long rides though.
  Overview
  Atmosphere You are out the front of the brisbane river with mangroves on one side and a massive port on the other. take a fishing rod and drop a line in while ya wait for the ships to come through. There's a couple of ships per hour.
  General Pretty shithouse but so is living in brisbane.

Coochie mudlow surf camp - now operating
In light of all the recent interest in wake surfing in moreton bay we hav edecied to tell the world about our exclusive resort located on the beautifull Island Of Coochie mudlow. The Island is open to all kinds of swell (depending on shipping times) and has 6 known breaks-all world class, in the 1-2 foot size range. Take advantage of our opening specials. For the next 2 weeks only we will only be charging the low low price of $550.00 per day. That includes boat trips out to the breaks, tent style accom, unlimited sausage sizzles and a daily ration of 2 cartons of XXXX a day.
check us out at www.pullthe otherone.com.au/tosser/brisso/wanker

cheers
