Life on Fraser Island: Fishing With Wilko On Fraser Island

FRASER ISLAND: The beaches are great and we're also pleased to report that some weed in the water seems to be heading north from Eurong and there's only a small bit washing up on the beach heading to Hook Point.

To the rods, dart have been on the bite and there's been a few anglers catching sand whiting off 75 Mile Beach too. Those afternoon summer storms have also been providing a great excuse to share a yarn (and a pint or two) at the XXXX Beach Bar.

If you're got something to boast about, we'd love to see your pics on Facebook or social media - don't forget to tag us with ‪#‎eurongbeach‬ and ‪#‎fraserisland‬.

John 'Wilko' Wilkins is the Resort Manager at Eurong Beach Resort and a mad keen fisherman.

Fraser Island

Fraser Island stretches over 123 kilometres in length and 22 kilometres at its widest point. With an area of 184 000 hectares it is the largest sand island in the world.

Fraser Island's World Heritage listing ranks it with Australia's Uluru, Kakadu and the Great Barrier Reef. Fraser Island is a precious part of Australia's natural and cultural heritage, it is protected for all to appreciate and enjoy.

Fraser island is a place of exceptional beauty, with its long uninterrupted white beaches flanked by strikingly coloured sand cliffs, and over 100 freshwater lakes, some tea-coloured and others clear and blue all ringed by white sandy beaches. Ancient rainforests grow in sand along the banks of fast-flowing, crystal-clear creeks.
