    Entrance to the Marina - just past the yaght club in the entrance channel. Park in the dirt carpark. You will see a small wall extending out when you get out of the car. They tell me they catch mackeral there (probably doggies but they will be fun). Can't see why you wouldn't get a barra there too.
    Also Molongle Ck (where ever that is!!)
    If you go past Flagstaff hill and to the left to an old quarry you can fish a rocky shore and there should be parrot here too.
    Mick Baker fishes Rose Bay off the rocks for big parrot. There is a post on here somewhere from Mick.
    The Bowen and Collinsville Tourist Guide and Holiday Planner should be available from the Motel and there should be some local knowledge around

    Large comp on in Bowen this weekend with several hundred competitors so will be busy.Entertainment along foreshore and weighins should be worth a look.Usually some very good fish brought in.

    The weather up there is fantastic so i reckon the weigh in would be all worth a look. Some big macks and reef fish for sure.
