  trove.nla.gov.au/work/247902206 - Mosman Library has a coloured postcard version...per Mosman Library, the house with the tower was at 2 Raglan St (located at the end of Curraghbeena Point)...it was evidently demolished in 1964...

Fishing party aboard the Bay cruiser Sheila at South White Cliffs, Fraser Island, ca. 1925

from State Library of Queensland

  This is the most frustrating fishing area, but it just adds to the challenge! The water along here looks good enough to produce a fish on every cast, no matter what the conditions… not true! The only really successful anglers are those who keep good records and are able to draw upon this bank of experience. This is true of just about any worthwhile spot but is particularly applicable to South White Cliffs. The area has two characteristics – an extension of typical Hervey Bay ledges and also as a deep snaggy hole near the mouth of an estuary. An approach to fishing the area is to decide whether you’re going to think ‘reefy ledges’ or whether you’re going to think ‘deep snaggy hole’. If you treat the area as you would typical Hervey Bay ledges further north, and fish in the appropriate conditions, you’ll probably find a good feed of reefies like coral bream, blackall, Moses perch, and cod. However, blue parrot and coral trout – common on the reefs further north – are not plentiful here. Source: www.fishingmonthly.com.au/Articles/Display/6708-South-Whi...
