the beach at parkdale, sorry as much info as i can give you, i know guys have been cleaning up off mt martha off the beach, but better to talk to tackleworld cranny, as those guys are the ones
You know when they have a fishing show on TV? They catch the fish and then let it go. They don't want to eat the fish, they just want to make it late for something.

Plenty of good King George around Lakes entrance at the moment. All the channels around Kalimna and Fraser island area are producing good catches. Secret is to get the tide right. Slack water in the channels at the end of the run out and the start of the run in are the best bet. Quite a few people bagging out on the good days. I took the Kayak out yestarday ,but was a bit late and only got one before the tide started running too hard. Going back later in the week for another try. Other boats that were there all had 6-10 good size ones when I got there. :r
There's nothing . . . absolutely nothing . . . half so much worth doing as simply messing around in boats.
