moon bob, but also an hour or so either side of high and low tide. when the tide is running hard the prawns bury in the mud/sand. when you get tides with a small high and a big low, you can get them all day. you can also chase the tides in different places. all good when it comes together, but they can be there one day and gone the next. in this area the season starts around nudgee, north side of the Brisbane river, moves south and usually ends around Jacobs well but in the last few years it's been all over the place. I know a bloke from woodgate beach about 200 k's from here, their season starts around Anzac day and only lasts a couple of weeks, but big, big prawns. get there one day . . . .mick

Is that is the Logan Mick or there abouts?

Good Luck, they would have to be the best tasting prawns caught fresh like that,

small ones are marinated in sweet chilli and garlic for pizzas. larger ones fried off with garlic, add a bottle of tuna bake, then mix in cooked fettuccine. then the old favourite, boiled and chilled, home made seafood sauce and crusty bread. but then again, a mate that i prawn with peels them and eats them raw while we catch themConfused. i was going today, should have . the wind isn't what was predicted. by the time i finished cleaning yesterdays lot, more then half were gone to kids and friends, all good get some next time. . .mick

This is pretty late in the year for you to be getting prawns isn’t it Mick?

We have barely seen any prawns up here. Normally we can get some off the trawlers but none have sold them since Christmas last year
