Port Hughes is my fave jetty in SA especially for squidYou can catch them all up the jetty on either side but just before the end of the left hand rail in the shallows has produced many a squid for me.For fish just berley up using a berley bucket 3/4 way down and see what shows up. I had a school of 30-40cm salmon show up and was catching the on plastics.Watch out for those shitties that are everywhere along the jetty this time of year. Thats why i only targetmid water to top water fish like gar and tommies. And have a plastic on hand to throw at snook. Youll know if their there if you see gar

Tennyson beach on low tide out on the sand bank works for me usually.

Yeh off the sainties breakwater off the endAlot of small throwbacks around 20cm but kept a few that were high 20s low 30sNah dont smoke em but would love to experiment next winter and buy a smokerI just fillet them and have them beer batteredDelicious but you need to bleed them upon capture

Definately worh a try mateWouldve caught over 50 yesterday all on lures but with the dodge tide you never know

Hey guys instead of starting a new topic i thought id chuck my question here.A lot of people talk of breaking salmons neck upon capture to give a better final tasteJust wondering the easiest way to do this??

Cheers for the replies guys Probably just back the drag off so the livie cant take line off but the mully canI'll be using an easy rig clip to hold the sinker so the livie can move around a bitAgain thanks for the help and if anyone of you WL mully experts got any more tips there more than welcome

Hey Guys,Looking to target some of these elusive Mullys lurking in the depths of Westlakes.My problem is that i don't have a bait runner reel and would like to know is there a way of getting the same "effect" as a bait running real on a regular reel?Cheers for the help guys

Never tried them but they look like a snook killer Only one way to find out if they catch fish

Ive heard around Moonta on the beach at low tide you can pump themJust look for little holes in the sand and just go walking along the beach and you should find some

Good effort even for in a boatHeading out to brighton jetty to try out my new shimano waxwing lures on those snook and some squid on my new sephia squid jags :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

I can't see any problem with it eitherBut i don't understand WHY someone would go out there way to drive to west lakes and release a doggy when they could just chuck it back in and keep fishing I mean seriously what does that achieve

How does the dodge affect the Pat

I better get the heavy gear out next time i go fishing at the lake Have heard stories of people throwing small bronzies' date=' black rays and eaglies in there as well.[/quote']Why

Not that i know of mate :unsure:Why do you ask?

Looks like it going to come down to the grand final. A little frustated :c that i came 4th cause i could've used those squid jags Congrats to Hullbilly who has won the squid jags And i hope nick and rick the best of luck which ever team they vote

Terrible news mate.My deepest condolences go to his family and friends.

Not sure about cuttlefish as never caught one but i seen recently watching Adventure Bound on dvd when he caught a big squid he would hold it up to the sun light and in the middle of the back of the squid ( the lighter part ) if there was a big white area in the middle it usualy ment it was carrying eggs.

I headed to st kilda under estimating the size of the tides and almost had to swim back and only caught one and i think the only salmon trout caught that day there.

Hey does anyone now where i can get that lead putty stuff to put in your lures to weigh them down. I've found it online but if anyone knows where i can pick it up in Adelaide it would be great.

Was at wallaroo jetty yesterday and at about 1pm wasn't raining or windy or nothin. But you could see the storm and lightning coming in from over the sea. Amazing site but we had to leave cause you could it was gonna hit the jetty in like half an hour. Was litterely out driving the storm until we hit second storm which flooded the road upto the car doors :ohmy: . (BTW caught half a dozon crabs a squid and had a run from a pretty big snapper )

Yeh i still got a little jar of them somewhere i used them last january off port hughes jetty and got loads of tommies and even a few gar on them but they were realy thick so i suppose you would have got them on anything that was white a 1/2 an inch long they looked realy handy when i bought them and something that you could use in a spur the moment thing You would just use them as normal gent and they stay on the hooks heaps better and even when you've unhooked a fish there still on the hook ready to catch another. But i would still use live ones for gars but if there heaps of gars and tomm

Just wonderin if its better to go for them at low or high tide

Had a holiday few years back for my birthday in feb and stayed at a waterfront villa. Bloody beautiful. Went out every mornin and was catchin 30-40cm bream on a few pieces of bread For landbased i'd recoomend tryin out a few lagoons for your bream yellowfin trevaly. Treat the river nearby as you would treat westlakes i suppose.Anyway goodluck:P
