WHOPPER CAUGHT IN THE BAY
A 20 ft. 2000lb, sawfish was caught in Moreton Bay about a mile on the Bribie side of Redcliffe jetty, at .10.30 a.m. yesterday.
It was not caught by a big-game fisher man— 14 .303 bullets
fired from a trawler killed the monster after it had attacked and ruined the trawler’s £200 prawn net.
The trawler, the 72ft. Nanango, is owned by commercial prawner, Mr. M. Drinan, of Woody Point.
