Afternoon all, Over the last two years i have mainly been fishing catch and release, as i enjoy watching the fish swim away more than i would going to the effort of prepping it for the table. Now when i release a fish i often get other fishermen or pedestrians on jetties giving me dirty looks or questioning why i am releasing the fish. I am not sure whether they want to keep the fish for themselves as they rarely state the fact or whether they are just curious, So i just thought it would be interesting to see if some of you guys offer your catch to others before returning it to the water?Cheer

Hey mate, If you are after free diving i have been to Rapid bay. Calm conditions is a must. The sea dragons and squid were fascinating to watch in the shallower water, while various other fish species make an appearance. :f If you are diving with a tank i have been hearing of a reef a little bit out from Second Valley.. Hopefully someone else can elaborate further as i am also starting to sort diving schools.Cheers, S121.

Beach fishing - you should be in for a chance with Mullet, Yellowfin Whiting, and flathead. Be sure to post a report if you do well.Cheers, S121.

Taken from PIRSA website.Hooks must not exceed 56mm in shank length and a gape of 23mm between 5am and 9pm.The use of any wire trace or a monofilament trace exceeding 1mm in diameter is strictly prohibited between 5am and 9pm.It is my understanding that if your hooks/leader etc. comply with the above rules, it should be all good..Perhaps someone could elaborate further?Cheers, S121.

Went for a day trip to the Murray River (near Mannum) yesterday. Managed to catch 5 Callap (a couple of 40cm specimens) 3 carp, and 7 Catfish . until this year I have only ever caught 1 other catfish in my life and have never seen anyone else catch one. Now they seem to be more abundant in the areas I am fishing than carp! Has anyone else noticed a significant number increase upon other areas of the Murray?

Hey there, I am currently on the look out for work in the Fishing Operations Industry. I am applying for a Cert 3 in Fishing Operations for TAFE, however, I must be working in a related industry prior to enrolling. I have looked through SEEK and nothing is on offer. Does anyone know of a good place to start?Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!Cheers, S121.

Hey guys, Have heard through friends that the end of the jetty,(where the ship can dock) has been closed off to the public. Is this true? Will this ruin the fishing for bigger game, such as snapper?

Cheers for the help guys! much appreciated.

Hey guys, I have been looking into fly fishing over the past few weeks, and am really keen to start getting into it. I have been checking out quick vids on youtube, but are mostly vague. Just hoping someone could let me know the best set up to start with, some of the basics, IE: size of rod, line, etc. Cheers in advance!S121

kadava was right, hunting Redfin. sorry for being vague. Cheers for all the help guys!

Hey guys, just after some advice on soft plastics. I have been using them for quite a few months now and am yet to yield anything. Starting to think that my technique is wrong. Usually just cast it out with slow retrieve, though have tried flicking the lure every now and then. Mostly after some reds. Is my technique wrong or will persistence pay off?Cheers, S121.
