CAPTION ON PHOTO (Brisbane Truth 18 January 1948) Photographer Bill Robinson, of Tewantin, snapped this picture of a big catch of turrum fish at Noosa Heads. Tewantin fishermen, Evans and Co., caught them in a net in the surf on the beach. In one haul there were 80 fish, weighing from 50 to 95lb., and averaging 70lb. The fish sold in the market for 10d. and 11d. a lb., so it was a very profitable haul.
