Wahoo 146 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Just been reading some of the thumper KG threads in this section & thought I'd share these.Fishie mentions in another thread the power hauling and netting that used to occur on the Stansbury Spit. For years all you could get inside the spit were undersized KGW, waste of time fishing there if you were after KGs. These 2 were caught back in early December, inside the spit in less than 3 metres of water. Both were caught using 6lb braid with 10lb mono trace and size 4 circles. Biggest (caught by the fair one) went 56cm, mine went 51cm. :woohoo: Dropped a similar size one at the boat the next day. Going back in a couple of weeks so fingers crossed.Cheers Wahoo 4THALOVE, Double Trouble, Just Me and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wahoo 146 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Before some smart arse comes on and say's "It's at Stansbury" I'll answer for you. Stansbury is on lower Yorke Peninsula about 20kms North of Edithburgh & about 20km south of Port Vincent. Due to the shape of the coastline it has a large sandspit running offshore in a NE direction for a few kilometres. The spit is home to many razorfish, blue swimmers, squid, tommies, garfish, flathead, snook, KGW and about half a dozen oyster farms. Check it out on Google Maps Just Me and Poppa Snake 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
