The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest reef system[1][2] composed of over 2900 individual reefs[3] and 900 islands stretching for over 2600 kilometres (1600 mi) over an area of approximately 344400 square kilometres (133000 sq mi).[4][5] The reef is located in the Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland in northeast Australia. The Great Barrier Reef can be seen from outer space and is the world’s biggest single structure made by living organisms.[6] This reef structure is composed of and built by billions of tiny organisms, known as coral polyps.[7] This reef supports a wide diversity of life, and was selected as a World Heritage Site in 1981.[1][2] CNN labeled it one of the seven natural wonders of the world.[8] The Queensland National Trust named it a state icon of Queensland.[9] A large part of the reef is protected by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, which helps to limit the impact of human use, such as fishing and tourism. Other environmental pressures on the reef and its ecosystem include runoff, climate change accompanied by mass coral bleaching, and cyclic population outbreaks of the crown-of-thorns starfish. The Great Barrier Reef has long been known to and used by the Aboriginal Australian and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and is an important part of local groups’ cultures and spirituality.

www.reefari.com Bit of night fishing of the back of Centurion and Jeff caught this nice Bronze Whaler Shark, Can be a pain at times on the reef, Heaps of Sharks and especially when they take your nice reef fish when trying to pull one in. Good fun and released to no doubt catch again another day. The other sharks you’ll see are Tawny sharks in our videos at times, very docile coming up for an easy feed. They’re quite tame and used to the noise of boats. At numerous spots fishing along the reef edge, would simply swim up to the back of the boat, awesome to see, Normally only do that at the well known anchorages where they get an easy feed of the Live trout boats. So enjoy, subscribe for more great fishing action, tips and news, of our Hardline reefari 2009 trip to come. Cheers Greg http
