Hetherington 0 Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Has anyone ever seen a salmon school line up like travelling ants as opposed to the usual round/oval school of fish? CARL, dale1396235468, dylzzz69 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

piratepom 3,197 Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Just 'liked' this on FB. Awesome photo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fishie 98 Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 It's as if they've found that warm bit of water just off the shore and they are all in it. When I do I normally get eaten by sea lice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Knackers 696 Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Plenty of times. But never that long! Great photo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dale1396235468 0 Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Been fishing over 25 years lived on the west coast for a while and caught/seen many a sambo but always tightly packed schools sometimes at conventions multiple schools bigger than footy ovals always changing shape and generally unless burleying constantly on the move. That is a great photo would love to know where that was taken??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hetherington 0 Posted December 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 I thought it was quite unusual aswell, as I have always seen schools bunched up also! Photo was taken on the southern Yorke Peninsula dale1396235468 and Liam1396235567 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Des 818 Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Enter Shark! And see how quickly they get bunched up.It sure looks like a nice, relaxed, leisurely day for the salmon. An infrequent situation as the Predators are ever present. :ohmy: Cheers, Des dylzzz69 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
