netman21 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 hav,nt heard of any mulloway caught from our local metropolitan jetties but have heard of them being caught off the rocks at north haven using salmon trout as livebait it,s the rocks with the green light flashing at the end where the north haven boat docks are. kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbnrs 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Thanks netman I've heard of them at north arm and outer harbour as such so why wouldn't they swim on the metropolitan coast :silly: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Barbz 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Thanks netman I've heard of them at north arm and outer harbour as such so why wouldn't they swim on the metropolitan coast :silly:Tell ur old man to get a boat man or make Shen take you out . No doubt someone would have gotten them at some stage off metro beaches and jetties, but nothing good and big besides sharks at the right time and rays come from metro jetties now. And the occasional snapper of glenelg and porties in the right conditions kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

M.Hittler 0 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Big mulloway have been caught of every metro jetty. Biggest two ivy seen is 66lb of glenelg and a 70lb of semaphore jetty. kbnrs, Del and Barbz 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tinker 1,645 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I was fishing the Garden Island jetty a few years ago and caught but didn't land an estimated 70-75cm mulloway on my bream gear.Wasn't expecting it and probably wouldn't recommend it as a prime mulloway spot, but you never know where or when they will turn up.And Garden Island is chockas with shitties, which is what I was using for bait when I caught it.I should go back there and fish one night again, but I get paranoid about my car getting pinched or damaged these days.Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smokeykebab 175 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 have caught tiddlers from grange and port noarlunga jettys on bait whilst trying to catch live bait to target them in the onkaparinga and west lakes. :dry: I did live bait for them at grange on this occasion and got spooled by a ray it put an end to my mulloway hunt in the lake that night. kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 1,645 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I guess to get a fish like that, you would have to put in the long hours, and be in the right place at the right time.And by the looks of things, that could be anywhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Damo67 6 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Have caught Mulloway off the beach at Kingston Park. Middle of the day. October maybe 12 years ago. kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Knackers 696 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I have heard of them being caught near the torrens outlet and off and near the west beach boat ramp. Also saw a topic on here once detailing similar. kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fished out 0 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I would Imagine Port Nourlunga to be in with a shot. River mouth down the beach and a fringing reef surrounded with baitfish. kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kgbeats 1 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 i was snorkeling at port noarlunga last summer on the little reef about 15meters from shore and there were 2 1m+ mullies staring at me under a ledge so id say its a possibility to catch em there kbnrs and plankton 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
O2Catch1 170 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 One of my friends speared one under the Henley Jetty back in Dec 1973 (the day we finished our year 12 exams) As was said here, some big ones can be caught off the NH breakwater. One day I took my sons out there chasing salmon trout, there was a pile scales, the largest was a little bigger than a 20 cent piece, up on the rocks near the small beacon. Definitely mulloway scales!! kbnrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
