If you are a true foodie, you crave quality ingredients and authentic cooking experiences. You enjoy creating your own dishes far more than tearing open packages or ordering off a menu. Why settle for anything less than the best when it comes to pizza? Only a wood fired pizza oven can give you the rich flavor and traditional cooking practices your culinary passion deserves.

Even if you don’t consider yourself a skilled at-home chef, you can add a wood fired pizza oven in your yard or garden and enjoy cooking a family favorite over an open flame. Plus, an outdoor pizza oven takes your entertaining capabilities to the next level. You can easily custom-create pizzas to suit everyone’s taste—whether cooking for a few people or a large party with many guests.

Wood-burning ovens are ancient methods of food preparation. Culinary experts state that there are many benefits to cooking pizzas, and other food, in a wood-burning oven.

If you want the best-quality pizza oven for your backyard, you should turn to Mason-Lite. Our team has over a century of combined experience in fireplaces and can help you understand how a masonry fireplace or Pizza Oven fits in to your outdoor landscape.

Have you experienced the delight of cooking your pizza in a wood-fired oven? If so, we would love to hear from you:

How has cooking pizza over an open flame changed your perception of this classic dish?
What cooking tips do you have for anyone new to cooking pizza in an outdoor over?

Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park – Park Activities Pizza Time

Wood-Fired Ovens Cook Pizza Quickly

Pizza has become a favorite convenience food for busy individuals and families. Many people stop by their local pizza shop to pick up their favorite pie on a regular basis. Countless others rely on pre-made frozen pizzas or compile their own using components, such as packaged crusts and canned sauces.

No matter how you put together a pizza, there are limitations to how quickly your home oven can cook it. While a pizza shop can heat their ovens to 700 to 800 degrees Fahrenheit, most conventional home ovens max out at around 500 degrees. At that heat, it takes between 20 and 30 minutes to preheat the oven, plus eight to 15 minutes to bake a pizza.

Satay Chicken Pizza

With a wood fired pizza oven, you can attain higher temperatures—approximately 500 to 700 degrees. This sharply cuts pizza cooking time. As a result, you can expect your pizza to cook in just two to five minutes in a wood-fired oven (depending on the dough thickness).

Wood-Fired Ovens Boost Food Flavor

If you have ever experienced pizza cooked in a wood fired oven, you’ve undoubtedly noticed a significant taste difference. In part, the enhanced flavor that wood-fired cooking offers is due to even heat distribution. In addition, cooking pizza wood imparts a unique, smoky flavor that is impossible to replicate with a traditional home oven.

Satay Chicken Pizza

Wood-Fired Ovens Help Food Retain Nutrients

Many health-conscious individuals top pizzas with tasty fruits and veggies. Cooking over an open flame in a wood-fired oven cooks vegetables and fruits very quickly and helps them retain specific nutrients and antioxidants. A longer cooking process can cause depletion of these antioxidants and nutrients and diminish the pizza’s nutritional value.

HINT: Add cornmeal on your pizza peel before adding the pizza to help the pizza slide into the oven easier.

Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park Pizza At Park

Wood-Fired Ovens can Fulfill Other Cooking Purposes

While modern-day Australians often seek an outdoor oven for pizza, these versatile fireplaces can cook many other types of food as well. If you think about it, the bulk of cooking throughout human history has been done in a wood-fired oven. Many contemporary ovens can bake bread, roast meats and vegetables, and much more.

Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park Pizza

Wood-Fired Ovens Save Energy

Anyone who wants to maintain a green lifestyle is always on the lookout for ways to trim their energy consumption. In those cases, a wood-fired oven is a great option. A wood oven does not require any electricity or gas to operate. The only energy source is heat from the fire.

Pizza Lover Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park Special Pizza

However, cooking over an open flame does produce smoke. In some areas of the country, municipalities have instituted restrictions of wood burning to help reduce air pollution. Before investing in a wood-burning fireplace, you should check on wood-burning regulations in your local community and understand any relevant restrictions.

Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park Pizza Wooden Fire

Enjoy all the Benefits of Cooking Pizza in a Wood-Fired Oven

To the uninitiated, cooking pizza over a wood-burning oven may sound complicated, but it is truly very simple. In fact, you can follow the same steps you would use to make a pizza from scratch in your conventional condition. Select or make dough, top with sauce, cheese, desired accompaniments and bake. The only step that is truly different is that you make a delightful fire instead of flipping on a switch.

Wood-Fired-Pizza-Oven-Stock

Wood-fired pizza is a true culinary delight that takes an all-time favorite to new heights of flavor. You also gain nutritional benefits from the wood-fired cooking process, but do not lose the convenience of this easy-to-cook staple.

Karumba Birds Life

The Gulf area is home to numerous and diverse species of birds including migratory species – parrots, finches, honeyeater, herons, birds of prey, brolgas and much much more. Karumba being located on the coastline with savannah grassland, meandering wetlands stretching up to 30km inland, savannah scrub and coastal mangrove environments is a virtual birdwatchers paradise.

The Gulf Savannah extends from the Great Dividing Range in the east, to the Northern Territory border in the west – covering around 186,000 sq kilometers. There are vast flat plains around the southern Gulf area stretching to the south. To the east and southwest of the region there are rising uplands. Savannah grasses, shrubs and trees along with a rich variety of wildlife provides a landscape which really is – amazing!

The southwest area of the Gulf region is heavily mineralized and is part of the north west mineral province. The Gulf’s land area can be compared to being approximately 80% the size of Victoria. There is an annual water run-off equivalent to almost 30% the national total – this is larger then the Murray Darling basin!

The Gulf Savannah features a tropical climate – wet season in the summer and dry season through the winter. The temperatures range from a daily average maximum of 33°c and minimum of 20°c, with an approximate rainfall of 900 mm per annum.

There are two bio-regions in the Gulf:

The Northern Gulf – Resource Management Group – NRM and

The Southern Gulf – Catchments – NRM

The role of these groups is to produce strategies for the management and protection of the bio-regions. Supporting this process at the catchment level, are catchment co-ordination and Landcare groups.

There are 20 wetlands in the Gulf region and the Gulf is drained by 28 drainage basins, with the majority of streams flowing north and northwest into the Gulf of Carpentaria. These river basins include the Mitchell, Flinders, Gilbert, Leichhardt, Nicholson, Norman and Staaten.

Following are various photos provided from Karumba locals – Rose & Jockey Bouwens.

Phil Horton from catching the big Spanish Mackerels Fish

Well, it looks like you just can’t stop Phil Horton from catching the big Spanish Mackerels Fish

This is a big one. 1.6 meters. Great fish Spanish mackerel Fish is a highly valued species, targeted by recreational and commercial fishers alike throughout Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park Queensland. Populations within the Gulf of Carpentaria are a separate biological stock to populations along the east coast. Spanish mackerel, an especially good eating finfish, produces an attractive plate-size cutlet or an essentially boneless fillet.

Jim & Phil have a successful day out today

Jim & Phil have a successful day out today

 

This spawning behavior is quite common and sees big runs of Spanish mackerel in the far northern part of Queensland around the summer months.

This spawning behavior is quite common and sees big runs of Spanish mackerel in the far northern part of Queensland around the summer months. At the other end of the state, the story is quite similar with the more predominant runs usually taking place around the southeast corner between January and May. The central and northern areas of Queensland usually see their bigger inshore aggregations anywhere between the winter and spring months of July and November. There is not much known on how far these fish move or whether they do travel up and down the coast, however, it is known that female fish mature much quicker than males and can reach the legal 75cm mark in just two years. This is one of the reasons why Spanish mackerel is second behind coral trout in terms of commercial fisheries as they grow so quickly and are so abundant.

 

Jim Phil has a successful day out today

Wherever you target these fish, the first step to snaring a big Spanish mackerel is to find out when these fish are most predominant in your local area. Once you know when they are ‘in season’ your chances increase dramatically, as well as the number of fish per angler.

QUEENSLAND anglers are gearing up for barramundi season, which re-opened at midday on Friday, February 1.

Queensland Boating and Fisheries Patrol district expert reminded fishers to check the size and possession limits that apply to the iconic Queensland species when the season opens. “It’s important that fishers refresh their knowledge of the rules and regulations before dropping a line to avoid being fined,” Expert said. “The minimum size limit for barramundi on the east coast and Gulf of Carpentaria is 58cm, the maximum size limit is 120cm and the possession limit is five fish per person. For those fishing in some of Queensland’s stocked freshwaters, one barramundi may be taken if it is greater than 120cm.”

Barramundi Season Opening 2019

For the full list of these stocked freshwater locations, visit https://www.daf.qld.gov.au/fisheries/recreational/rules-regulations/closed-seasons-fresh-waters

Closed seasons have been in place for barramundi since October 7, 2018 in the Gulf of Carpentaria and on the east coast since November 1. Expert said annual closures apply to barramundi fishing to ensure the long-term sustainability of the fish species. “The closed seasons which coincide with spawning periods protect barramundi stocks during this vulnerable time in their life cycle. This allows the fish to spawn and replenish to ensure healthy fish stocks for current and future generations of Queenslanders.”

If you suspect illegal fishing, whether seen in person or online, report it to the Fishwatch hotline on 1800 017 116. Don’t engage with the person, as this can compromise an investigation.

For more information on Queensland’s fishing closed seasons, visit www.fisheries.qld.gov.au, call 13 25 23 or download the free ‘Qld Fishing’ app from Apple and Google app stores. You can follow Fisheries Queensland on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@FisheriesQld).

Local Fish in Karumba

Fish Caught at Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park in one week

There are so many options when it comes to fishing at Karumba that sometimes it’s hard to know where to begin! A good spot for starters is the Norman River, where you’ll find huge fish like.

Prince-Electrical Caught Fish. They stayed at Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Barramundi

Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park Holidays, Easter Vacations

The Barramundi is widely regarded as Australia’s premier native sport fish and the Gulf Country in Tropical North Queensland offers excellent opportunities to target this much sought after species.

Rod and Kim. 2 nice people with 4 very nice Barra. Caught today in Karumba 26 th April 2017. Well done guys.

Regarded as a true sporting fish with great fighting ability, the bite is sudden and savage and once hooked barramundi perform aerobatics and repeated powerful runs for cover in snags. The Australian record catch for a Barra is 37.85kg. Size and bag limits do apply.

Salmon (Blue & King)

A-King-Salmon Caught Karumba Point Sunset Caravan ParkA-King-Salmon Caught Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Here in Tropical North Queensland we have two species, the blue salmon and the threadfin or king salmon as it is called in Queens land. Our species are great sport on light tackle and readily take lures or flies when fishing for Barramundi. Its firm white flesh is arguably better eating than barramundi, easy to fillet and freezes quite well. Average captures vary from 50cm to just under 1 M., and size and bag limits do apply.

Back to Top

Javelin (Grunter)

Barra-Dave-scores-a-55-cm-Grunter-Bream-in-the-Norman-river-while-staying-at-the-Sunset-Caravan-Park-on-there-annual-holidays

Grunter (javelin fish) are probably the most prolific fish in our estuary and tidal systems and many a bait fishing outing has been saved by the catching of dozens of these common, but very underrated fish. They are one of the best eating fish to come from our waters, but being so easy to catch, do not have the glamour nor appeal of the more famous species like Mangrove Jacks or Barramundi. Size and bag limits do apply to grunter. Soft white flesh and excellent eating.

Back to Top

Fingermark (Golden Snapper)

Jules go to town on a fabulous Finger Mark fish. She stayed at Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

The finger mark bream (spotted scale sea perch – big scale red) derives its name from the distinctive “thumb print” like black spot found near its tail when just landed. This spot will fade as the fish dies as will its magnificent copper colouring. It is a splendid fish, highly prized for its eating qualities ( arguably the best eating fish to come from the estuaries) and offers a dogged hard fight to the boat. Finger mark show exceptionally slow growth rates, take only what you need for a good feed as fish stocks can easily be put under pressure from over fishing. Size and bag limits do apply.

Back to Top

Cobia

Sues-15.5-KG-Cobia.-Good-looking-fish Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Also commonly called black king fish, cobia are usually caught while targeting other species. Taking both trolled lures or garfish meant for mackerel and hooked by bait fisherman working the bottom, they offer a very hard exhausting fight. Fish to 30+ lb inhabit the tropical reef waters and are usually found near structures. Their habit of accompanying large mantas and devil rays is well known and many an alert angler will entice a strike by casting a lure at these gliding monsters. They are excellent eating.

Back to Top

Spanish Mackerel

Phil The Thrill Horton Bags A Spanish Mackerel Stayed At Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Narrow-Barred Mackerel or Tanguigue (more commonly called Spanish Mackerel or just Spaniards) are the prime target in our waters with specimens to over 60 lb (27 kg) common. They will readily take jigged chrome slices, trolled or floated garfish and pilchard baits as well as trolled lures. Sport fishing tackle of at least 6 kg is preferred with the use of a heavy wire leader and black swivels essential for both lure and bait fishing. Once hooked Spaniards will make one long spirited run and usually tire shortly after, smaller shorter runs precede gaffing at the boat.

Len and Judi Sure Know How To Get The Big Spanish Mackerel Great Catch Guys Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Spaniards are excellent eating but must be killed by a sharp blow to the head and bled immediately upon capture. This will not only preserve the flesh but make them much easier/ safer to handle, most anglers will carry a heavy wooden “donger”, similar to a small baseball bat, on board for this purpose. The fish can either be cut up into steaks or filleted and skinned, either way the flesh is excellent eating. Size and bag limits do apply.

Black JewFish

Great season.
We get the big ones at Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park.

Jewies are a cousin of the southern mulloway and look fairly identical apart from their scales which are much darker and have a black spot, hence the name. Their preferred habitat is around deep structure, wrecks and inshore reefs.

Brian Coates 1.34 metre Jew Fish catch. Stay at Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Excellent eating, hard fighting and available in XLS sizes makes this fish a prime target but apart from a few well known spots their numbers and consistency of capture are not prolific. Size and bag limits apply.

Local Rules Local Fish Rules Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Fishing – Local Rules

Local Rules Karumba_Point_Sunset_Caravan_Park_Fishing_Rules_Australia

Local Rules Why do we have Size Limits?

In Queensland, for many fish species there are limits on the size of fish that can be legally taken. There are minimum size limits and also some maximum size limits.

Local Rule This Barramundi Did Not Get Away Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Size limits are typically based on biological research into each species’ reproductive cycles. Minimum size limits generally allow fish to spawn at least once and contribute to the population before they are taken.
However, some species spawn as they become larger which means a maximum size limit applies. For example, most barramundi begin their lives as males and later, as they grow larger, become females. A maximum size limit is applied to protect large females and to allow them to spawn.

Back to Top

Why do we have take and possession limits?

Local Rule Take and Possession Limits Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

A take and possession limit is the number of fish that one person can legally take and keep.
These limits serve several purposes. They conserve heavily exploited species, conserve species that are susceptible to capture, share the catch more equally among anglers, reduce the illegal marketing of fish and convey the message of ethical and responsible behavior.

Back to Top

Why do we have Closed Seasons?

Local Rule Spawning Seasons – Fishing Rules Karumba Point Sunset Caravan Park

Closed seasons prevent people from fishing at certain times of the year and protect species at particularly vulnerable times of their lifecycle such as spawning seasons.
