Hey Brendan. Good luck on your fight. Ever person needs to stand up for our own area. The corporates (most of them) don’t care about nature. We are fighting Adani in QLD now. They have polluted 10,000 hectares in their home country, they are trying to expand here on the Great Barrier Reef. I’m not against coal but we can’t eat or breath coal! Adani hasn’t even got final approval and already been fined for pollution before having approval to expand. They will also be given free water when our struggling farmers are foreclosing due to drought. Things will never become right until every man, woman and child stands up for our environment. This fight is happening all over the world.
Need to make a stand against this POLLUTION Plant, in our precious waterways. Western port isn't just the best waterway for squid breeding grounds, but it is also the generations to come, when it comes to fishing, as this waterway keeps the numbers up, since it is a top breeding ground for most species from squid, to Gummy sharks. Well said Mate!
The weedy sea dragons are an endangered species and only found around there to frankston. Also I think the squid will be a good food source for us locals in the future as they'll thrive in the warmer sea temps. Spread the message.
This is so sad .. speaking from perth wa ... something similar is also happening to our local fishing waters known as cockburn sound ... they in the movement of putting a new shipping port to meet international freight in the new years .. it's sad how much they do not take consideration of how it effects our environment an the sea life .. I'll be with yous every step of the way for support.. love it videos mate
Great video and clearly it had an impact. This info from AGL's web site as of May 2021 “The decision to cease any further development of the Gas Import Jetty Project follows the Independent Advisory Committee (IAC) findings and the Victorian Planning Minister’s determination on 30 March 2021 that the project would have unacceptable environmental effects.”
Think the worst thing about this is that Australia is the largest exporter of gas in the region, so why are we looking to import it? Someone is making a turn exporting it and then clipping the ticket again on the importation, and who pays? We do! This project makes no sense, just don’t export as much in the first place.
Try talking to David Kramer from Talking Fishing he has contacts or friends in the state government and fisheries and a shit load of viewers you never know everyone may get behind it Save Western port. Tony
I am in NSW and like you guys we will feel the efect like you There is a problem with somr science it depends on who is calling the tune to find in there favour as we have see with so many result Next election we have the biggest say Thanks for a great video and information .
Just sent your link thru to Neil Mitchell on 3aw and also emailed agl and asked for there environment impact report.going to also to send your link to Greg hunt our local federal member..some one should also get Rex hunt on to it..your a champ Winga. Love ur work and I brought a bar Crusher because of watching you..welcome on board any day..don’t give up..cheers
To see how true this is you all only have to look back at Burnie, Tasmania when we had tioxid it made our sea Blood Red no fish no life left in the water so bad Midnight Oil even had a song about it. Tioxid has gone now, the sea is blue the fish are everywhere, Melbourne don't let this happen to you over $$$$$$$$$$$
You are so right, Winga. Everyone who cares about our environment, our fishing, our lives needs to pound every politician with the seriousness of this travesty. Also make sure AGL know that we will punish them economically. Let your super annuation company know that if they invest in AGL you will change super to someone with a conscience. Money is the only language these peanuts understand so make sure they know there will be financial consequence for this sort of short-sighted, mercenary exploitation of our environment.
Hey mate. I'm new to squid fishing. Are they biting in Western Port at the moment? Alot of people saying water is too cold. Cherrs mate, love your vids
Hi Mate I’m having trouble editing the letter to Richard and putting my name and address on it. Don’t know if anyone else is having this trouble, probably user error.
Its a shame if that goes through. Do we have any say in this? I have signed the petition but would AGL listen? This is totally wrong. How this even be considered to put industry in the middle of Secluded pristine waters of westernport bay?
find some aboriginal artifacts or bones.....wink wink. found...placed... even speak with the local tribe leaders for help. I'm sure they'll be on board with protecting the land.
hello~ Big fish channel I like to contact with you guys. Would you let me know how? I am from south korea. I am planning to go fishing there~ Thank you for your concern.
Brendon we need to unite around the country and become a political force. I am from Sydney and when the fisho united we were able to stop 25 unscientific lock out site simply because there were was no direct science which means the were not able to fulfil the 'null hypothesis"of scientific research. Simply put without direct science they have no base line to determine what damage is taking place. It is imperative that direct scientific data is available as a comparison. From our battle with lockouts we have have a massive passenger terminal they want to build around Mollineaux point the premier fishing location in Botany Bay. This place holds enormous amounts of bait and every main Sydney species, Kingfish, Mulloway, Big Aussie Salmon, pelagics, trevally etc... If we can create an Australia wide movement that genuinely will threaten political seats then we are in the game, if not we are small fish that they will pick off, it is imperative we become nation wide to show the numbers they are up against. Good luck with the battle we will help in any way we can because you made Western Port a bucket list destination for me.
I didn't think the bay had completely recovered yet from when the scallop boats were banned, and now a bunch of parasites want to come and re-destroy it. I love to jump into my sharkcat and scream out there to catch a feed of squid. I don't get to do it enough at the moment, but 18 months from now I hope to be able to do it weekly, and it sounds like, by then, it may be too late. Also, is this all so someone can sell our natural gas for 2 cents per liquid litre to china, so they can use it to make 3rd rate products from our iron ore and bauxite to sell back to us, to build profits to assist them to take over the world? Or am I missing the part where I suffer, but get something in return?
Ok let us dumb it down for you. We are not against progress. We are against a foreign flagged ships with foreign staff polluting western port so AGL can make rich rich men richer
no no no, the port of hastings development would have done a lot of damage to the Bay too. but you .you supported that strongly. im against both of those developments .
You're drawing the longest bow here buddy. Don't blame a company that wants to secure its customers gas needs, blame a government that has BANNED all gas exploration onshore for the past 3 years. New exploration can not start until 2021, and only for conventional gas. So the Daniel Andrews Labor government caused this, otherwise AGL would have no need to build this thing. This is only needed because of the idiots you probably voted in. So in effect you have likely caused this terminal to be built. The customers that use that gas right near where you filmed this are making glass, cardboard packaging, and other Victorian made products. So be thankful that we at least have one iota of the manufacturing industry still left in this country.

Well said, this is a very very serious topic and actions need to be taken to save such a beautiful waterway we have!
Thank you Winga, didn't know about this. I was my kids to enjoy this beautiful country of ours, the way I can today.

Well done Winga, I think this issue has great merit and thank you for bringing this to my attention.
Great vid

Who needs a study, no doubt that it will have a negative affect on our Western Port Bay 👎

How can they be stopped? Western port needs to stay fresh
Have we stopped it yet or are we still fighting
We can’t let this happen!
Your right squid are like chameleons mate thanks for the info this is a serious matter love all your vids keep on casting peace😀👍✌
Have we stopped it yet winga
Agl have now said that if they do go ahead it’s not going to impact anything
That should be illegal for them to build a gas plant on WPB
You are so right, Winga. Everyone who cares about our environment, our fishing, our lives needs to pound every politician with the seriousness of this travesty. Also make sure AGL know that we will punish them economically. Let your super annuation company know that if they invest in AGL you will change super to someone with a conscience. Money is the only language these peanuts understand so make sure they know there will be financial consequence for this sort of short-sighted, mercenary exploitation of our environment.
Kiss big red goodbye if this goes ahead.
I don’t want this to happen,I won’t allow it to happen not on our watch time to fight this!
Hey mate. I'm new to squid fishing. Are they biting in Western Port at the moment? Alot of people saying water is too cold. Cherrs mate, love your vids
Nice vid
See SaveWesternPort.org and take action
I’m pretty sure they have stopped it
Yuk, we don't need this
There goes any chances of you hooking another blue fin from flinders. What a shame....
Hi Mate
I’m having trouble editing the letter to Richard and putting my name and address on it.
Don’t know if anyone else is having this trouble, probably user error.
Is this still happening I have contacts from iseaicareaustralia maybe I can tell the coordinator
I was out today off blue gum .. just managed to snap my steering wheel off ... fixed and out tommoz 😛
There’s some thumbs down? Well done Winga
Yep 4 cock flogs
Its a shame if that goes through. Do we have any say in this? I have signed the petition but would AGL listen? This is totally wrong. How this even be considered to put industry in the middle of Secluded pristine waters of westernport bay?
deathplant haha not wrong
How are we going to stop this
FISHERMAN FRANK follow the links
Make a petition

BigFishChannel sorry I'm going to sign now even though I have never been to Australia I just don't want any waterways to turn out like others
Why aren't you taking the bar crusher out know
find some aboriginal artifacts or bones.....wink wink. found...placed... even speak with the local tribe leaders for help. I'm sure they'll be on board with protecting the land.
