Australian Salmon Fishing Championship update:
The results for the biggest salmon caught during July are in with:
1st place: 5.465kg from Talia
2nd place: 4.910kg from Mount Camel
3rd place: 4.625 from Talia
Now for what was biting and where
Elliston / Sheringa
There have been some big Salmon around over the past month to well over 4 kg. First Beach had King George Whiting, Flathead, Tommies and Mullet. It should be warming up so time to dust off the fishing gear and give it a go.
Almonta / Gunyah Beach
A few scattered schools of good size salmon have been around with lure casters scoring fish when they were in close enough.
Farm Beach
Whiting were reliable for the boaties and some nice feeds were caught by land based anglers as well. Surf beaches between Greenly and Convention Beach had a few salmon between 2 and 4 kg.
Coffin Bay
Visibility is still poor in some areas due to the amount of fresh water flowing in from the Minniribbie creek. The jetty and rocks had mixed bags of tommies, salmon trout and whiting.
Port Lincoln
Squid are being caught throughout local bays, and tend to be biting more on an incoming tide on smaller jigs if fishing inshore waters. Gar, snook, whiting, tommies and salmon to 1.5kg were in Boston Bay and along the North Shore. Look for the birds working to find the salmon which have been finding on schools of pilchards. Whiting reports were good down the Passage before the dodge tides. Hordes of red mullet are in the same areas.
Tumby Bay
Whiting at the Group were harder to find during the dodge tides but there was plenty of red mullet and squid caught.
Port Neill
The boaties have been doing well on King George Whiting mostly on the northern grounds. It’s also worth a troll for some Snook. Land based anglers have been catching Tommies, Squid, Garfish and some Snook off the jetty and break water.
Port Lincoln Anglers Club
The next club outing will be in the Lincoln National Park on Sunday august 10th, being a ‘6 of a species event’, leaving the clubrooms at 8am sharp.
