I would have thought dolphins were smarter than that........Once caught a brown snake in a backwater near Morgan.....wasn't exactly "caught" as "tangled".Needless to say it was "released" trailing 20 yards of 6lb mono.

i thought the same mate, was uncoated wire aswell, and 400lblucky it took me over some reef, not before nearly spooling my 6/0,

Caught a callop with my hands on goolwa beach a few weeks ago but i think the weirdest was I caught a dingo at bobs kitchen up at yalata on the west coast one night....Pitch dark and the reel starts screaming - I grab the rod go to strike and its peeling off into the sandhills behind me!!!! The sinker and salmon slab washed up on the beach with the rip and the dingo got my bait!!! Was a weird moment - not exactly knowing where the water was - :blink: Thought I had one too many jimmys there for a sec!

Yeah 4the, 4bies are good down there - stop at every deep gutter and have a try...or the other method is walk down from the carpark and burley burley burley!!! and let them come to you....(Actually done better with the second method) But if you havent been there before a 4bie is a great way to have a squizz at the place! Lots of great spots! Heres a link to yalata bookings etc.... Cheers Greg.. http://www.yalata.org/camping.htm

Saw a classic one one afternoon. It didn't happen at the beach or near the water but did involve a fishing rod and a squid jag. It was back in the early 90's when I was working for the commonwealth railways at Pt Augusta. A few of us went to a colleagues place after work for a few beers and being still Summer, was quite warm. The blokes two sons were outside practising what they loved. The older son was into golf and was practising his putting on the lawn. His younger son was into fishing. Squid fishing in particular. So he was practising his casting techniques, also on the lawn. He was facing away from his older brother and casting across the yard. This went on for several minutes before we heard a blood curdling scream. Sure enough, the younger brother had flicked the rod back over his shoulder for another cast and had moved back a bit closer to his older brother. The squid jag had flicked over the older boy's shoulder and when the younger boy went to cast it, it shot up and lodged in his older brothers ear lobe! TO make matters worse, instead of seeing what was stopping him from casting, the young lad proceeded to pull on the rod trying to complete his cast!

you can catch and release as many as you want but only keep one then no more. penalties are severe may loose your tackle if you catch more after keeping onesize limit determined by angler

And a lot of wives dont even like you fishing for other wives.Atleast fish dont get to say, now that youve caught me - how dare you try for another. :pinch: :pinch:LOL, oh and I once caught a big snapper whilst trying to catch small snapper...thought that was weird..LOL
