    Hi everyone, We're currently looking for one more sponsor for the footy tipping comp. The prize can be something like fishing gear a day out on a charter, or a voucher for online or in store purchase. In the past we've had a first prize valued at $250. If anyone is interested or knows who may be interested please send me a PM. Tight lines and good luck to all those in the tipping comp

    The OnkaStompa is celebrating it's 10th year this year and the comp is quickly approaching. The event will be held on Sunday Nov 16th from 7am-12pm followed by presentations at Perry's Bend, Onkaparinga River, Noarlunga Downs. The OnkaStompa really needs more sponsors. Ideally business sponsors would be great to have on board but personal sponsors are just as important and are most welcome also. To get in contact and sponsor the event please check out the links below. Website www.onkastompafishingcomp.com Facebook https://www.facebook.com/OnkaStompaFishingComp

    Pictured are Sharon Lee with a nice Salmon caught off Talia and a Sampson Fish caught by Dan Harvey. If you have some recent fish pictures, please send them through to portlincoln@spotonfishing.com.au. Now for what was biting and where Elliston / Sheringa Salmon are being caught from the beaches, varying in size, with some fish up to 4kg being caught. Don’t forget that the Elliston Salmon Comp ends on the 31st of August, so you only have 2 weeks before you run out of time. The Elliston jetty also has had reports of nice garfish in the area.

    Thanks kelvin, yeah it's metro. I reckon I could definitely go smaller hooks, I've only ever caught two snapper from that spot and they were just over legal. Other fish around the place like salmon, wrasse and leatheries I could catch on smaller hooks too so makes sense. I think I might have been setting my expectations too high in the past from this spot. Also keen to try singles too. I guess if I still lose hooks I'll lose half as many with a single hook.

    I'm about to head back to a favourite spot of mine to start my land based snapper mission due to the reports that have been coming in lately. It's a spot where I lose lots of rigs. I have always used a peternoster rig, a 3oz or more bomb sinker on the bottom and roughly 30cm up a dropper loop leading to 2 snoozed 6/0 circles. When I reel in I give the line a good whack before winding in hoping it doesn't get snagged on the rocks and pulls through tough weed. It's pretty good rig that has worked well but I still lose heaps of sinkers and hooks so.... any suggestions what I can do to

    All good rod, I get called lots of things Yeah for me at the moment I don't have much storage space for bait and berley so I'm limited to small batches for a while. Mid range I might be able to manage. One day I'll definitely have to go the mulcher they look like they do a perfect job.
  12. bjorn2fish
    Had to start somewhere. I was actually quite surprised that little mixer managed to chop up most of the ingredients pretty well. Next time though to chop up the fish frames I'll need something more powerful, not sure if I'll go straight for the mulcher but perhaps some kind of meat grinder.
  13. bjorn2fish
    Thanks for the suggestion iron chef. I did consider curry powder but wasn't sure if that was more for just certain species of fish or if it worked as a good all rounder.

    I finally got around to making a batch of berley blocks. Ingredients included old bait like cockles, a few weird looking pillies, salmon trout, salmon frames, tommies, fresh prawn shells, squid, some old snapper and stale bread, I think that was about it. Some nice containers ready to use. I saved a few round containers so the berley could go in those small, screw top, plastic berley pots. My berley BEAST! Ok not a beast. I actually chipped the blades on the fish frames The berley mix looked awesome and sooo very tasty. Packed and ready to freeze.

    Awesome bream there mate! I deliberately left all the fish untouched in the morning so you could catch em all in the afternoon

If you would like a chance to see your fishing photos in this report please send the details to our new email address: portlincoln@spotonfishing.com.au Finally a few nice days have given local anglers the opportunity to get out and get some fishing done.

Talia beach anglers have also reported smaller salmon. The salmon beach along Sheringa has had reports of 3kg s

    A question with berley on the bottom. Do you guys mince and mash up your berley real small so the particles float out easily or do you keep it chunky so bits of it stay in your berley pot and are more of an attractant than a feed?
  23. bjorn2fish
    Those jigs look awesome. I'd love to see them in action.
  24. bjorn2fish
    Absolute monster Chuck, that would have been an exciting one to land.
