Ah if only. I use all the carp I catch in the torrens for fishing as well as stingrays as they are a very easy to get and sustainable bait. I'm going to get a kayak soon so I won't be fishing on jetties for too much longer hopefully The other thing that gets me is people leaving dead fish on jetties too, somehow i always manage to step on them. Totally live for it though, just a pity I can't get out more often.I'm very keen to get into crabbing off the kayak later in the year, just waiting for the boat show so I can hopefully pick up a bargain...

I'm yet to convert to braid but i absolutely love this stuff, best line i've used to date.

I loved the idea of the squidwitch but I was using mine for the first time on a jetty and wasn't paying attention and it wrapped around and i lost it So I never actually caught a squid on it but i think they look fantastic when they are rigged up, they would have to out squid anything else. As soon as I have some money to throw around i'm off to buy another

I'll get in touch with them soon if you think it can be done. Very keen as I'd like to keep dry and warm nothing worse than standing in near waist depth in winter in boardies Terrible on the aggets...

I've never targeted snapper before but I saw these recently in Wildcoast. They look the part but what sizes are best for snapper? My mate has recently started chasing them and i'm keen to give them a go. Just a pity about the price tag...But if anyone can let me know of a more productive size and/or colour I would greatly appreciate it.Cheers Tom

Someone may be able to help me on here but I have never owned waders and I am very keen to purchase some. Although i'm at uni and have no money money is not an issue as i believe in buying right the first time. Now the issue preventing me so far... I have size 15 feet can they actually be purchased that big? If not, as long as they are quality i don't mind paying extra. I doubt anyone will be able to help me as a size 15 shoe is hard enough to buy as it is I might just have to brave the freezing water in winter.Cheers Tom

Yeah Carps I totally agree. It just seems odd that they make such a big deal about it in the paper and on the news. It truly is a pity that more fisherman don't care about the environment or even just respect the fact that other fishers use the same jetties as them and they should tidy up after themselves.I was at browns beach the other week and was fishing right down the end of the lagoon. On my walk back I must have picked up at least 15 bottles and cans that were strewn about the beach from careless fishers that night. I also stepped on some gang hooks that were sitting in the sand near the

I don't fully understand this rule so I hope someone can clarify it for me as I can't make any sense of it. I have looked on the fisheries website and i've also printed off the relevant act and all I can make from it is that you can use ANY fish based burley. This legislation was brought in to stop people attracting sharks and I can sort of understand where they are coming from by not allowing animal meat to be used but...What is stopping me from chumming up a jetty with chunks of fish and a drum of fish oil? The legislation technically allows this but that would definitely attract sharks, so

HA ha hah ha hah haha, that would have to be the funniest picture i've ever seen. He totally copped it, thats so funny!

Hey new to this and didn't realise how many fished in the torrens... I'll find the pictures later on but the best i've done was 8.2kg near the zoo, i think it was around 82cm if i remember correctly. Fought brilliantly on 6lb line, luckily i'd invested in a gaff specifically for torrens fishing. I've probably caught 15-20 around the 4.5-6.5kg mark there too, awesome fun and so easy to get to.
