Fishing...
« on: May 24, 2006, 09:20:16 AM »
any fisherman (or fisherwomen) amongst us out there?

i recently went lure fishing in a local creek and produced these two little guys, well not so little really (30cm and 45cm)...


was wondering if anyone had any 'secret' spots they wanted to share and what to expect there??? if ya tell me your spots  ill be happy to share where mine are.... mind you its only really practical for me to go fishing in region one sort of area.... although i would love a crack at some west coast spots... lol

Medevac,

We have MANY fishing spots on the West Coast, catch whiting, garfish, squid, tuna, kingfish etc..

BUT I'm certainly not going to divulge my spots on this site. :-D

If you ever come over, I'll take you fishing..

Can't beat Coorong Mullet, just ask Andrew Lawson!! If anyone is ever near Meningie i'll take you out. My outlaws have a shack on the Coorong, we set a net (easy way) :-P and do some rod fishing and then motor across the Coorong to the beach, walk over the sand hills and do some surf fishing, finish at the beach, check the net on the way home then clean and cook all the fish to eat for lunch or tea. Nothing like eating fresh fish staight from the water. :-D

ahhh good old carp... after my cousins left pt lincoln they moved to mannum, so used to pull a few out every now and then.... there were some bigguns in the shallows too...

i had a go in the murray mouth there at goolwa a while ago, but only managed one small whiting  :-(

Does the Murray Mouth have any depth yet with the dredging ? I thought while the dredging was going on, that area was a bit useless.

But I would be interested in an update...

Murray mouth was excellent when I went down there at Christmas (Have they dredged any more since then?).  Most of the fish were too small, but as we were pulling them in every 2 minutes, it didn't take long to find bigger ones ;)

Off sugars beach (opposite the mouth) they're meant to be picking up a few small salmon and the odd school mulloway at the moment, but where the dredges have been its pretty deep. Where it's being dredged it's not in the mouth itself it's the inside of it.

For all those wondering the best time to fish the mouth and surrounding beaches for the bigguns is around jan-feb and sometimes into march, but other than that you can usually pick up smallish ones most of the year.
