Rybak 622 Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 A mate of mine wants to catch a Gummy Shark. Is there anywhere in SA that is worth a try on a boat ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Softy 2,991 Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 I've seen them caught down around KI if he is up for traveling that far. Rybak 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kuerschie 2,309 Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 I Would suggest KI/Cape Jervis offshore for one place. Another spot is out off Port Victoria on the whiting drops, have a slop line with a whole squid head and gummy gets taken out there. I’m unsure on the season for them there though. Depending on how far you want to drive, Coffin Bay has them in the bays at times and outside the bay to the north. Or down in the South East down Robe way they can get them as well.

southie THE BANGA 2,304 Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 A couple mates have been getting a few while drone fishing along the south south around Victor/ Port Elliot etc might be worth a look...... Been dropping baits a few hundred metres from shore Rybak 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jackmac 307 Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 I have been catching some impressive gummies around Edithburgh.Try the rips around Saltana Point around dusk.Use squid heads on a running rig.I know its not against the law to catch and keep females but after gutting a good size female a few years ago and finding over 30 pups happily swimming around inside her,i have made it my rule not to keep females.The one I am holding here is a male.

Hunter69 1,461 Posted May 21, 2020 Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 Plenty down the bottom end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rybak 622 Posted May 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2020 Thanks for the responses. A few areas to try at least. I like the Edithburgh idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
