This week’s pictures are of Indigo (2 and a half) with her first unaided fish and of Davin Pedler plus friend with a couple of nice Sampson fish from a recent trip to Flinders Island.
Now for what was biting and where
Elliston
Try the jetty for tommies, garfish and squid. A few flathead are being caught in waterloo bay, along with some smaller salmon. Locks Well anglers are reporting salmon, however are not indicating any size to these fish.
Sheringa
Tommies, whiting and mullet are being caught locally. Salmon of varying sizes have been caught over the past week.
Almonta / Gunyah Beach
Very few anglers have given reports from this area over the last week, but we have heard of the odd salmon from this stretch of the coast.
Farm Beach
Whiting can be caught in good numbers of a decent size from all depths of water. A few nannygai are being caught offshore
Coffin Bay
Anglers are still producing decent bags of King George Whiting from this area as well as a few tommies, trevally and squid.
Port Lincoln
Try the Thistle Island grounds for whiting and the odd bigger squid.Spalding cove & Taylors landing for whiting and squid, with best results during an incoming tide and with the use of berley. Local jettys for squid in good numbers during evenings and early mornings. Good quality jigs in smaller sizes are outperforming the cheaper jigs when the squid are fussy.
Tumby Bay
A few squid and King George Whiting have been reported by visiting anglers.
Port Neill
The town jetty has tommies, large squid, and nice garfish. Boaties had been successful fishing the northern grounds for whiting if prepared to move about. Snapper were coming from the inshore reefs, along with a few fish out wide. Reasonable size salmon are being caught from the town’s southern beaches.
Arno Bay
Squid and snook are in the bay. Be prepared to move about if targeting whiting.
Cowell
A few people are still getting some nice sized Blue Swimmer crabs as well as some nice squid.
