The mullies are around already! Just not in big numbers I've heard it's been good at 42 lately, so I went last night after work and got this one, went 23lb, 100cm long, I was chuffed!!

Had good success on squidgy flickbaits, as already mentioned.... in natural coloursalso the Berkley Nemesis, ive found these to be really good also!

The 87lb'er in my avatar was caught on a dodge tide!! Not the best time to fish but you can still be successfull.

It's the best time to catch mulloway e.g. goolwa

caught this one on a 4000 sized shimano.. and a shimano jewel 5-10kg stick with 20lb braid..

In the boat you cant beat the headshakes of a big red thrashing around IMO!!Land based salmon on metals is so much fun! but then again mulloway and the challenge they pose! such a good feeling landing one of the chrome beasts!

AUSSIE SALMON, on the metals off the beach, casting into a school and hooking up is the BEST feeling going around, especially on light gear!!

pulled some from Tennyson with cfr, best time from there is in the warmer months around a receding low tide on a sandbar..

Hey Dylbaa, good luck chasing beach worms mate, it can be very rewarding at times, and frustrating at others.I have only tried it a few times so far but have had success at beaches like Tennyson through to Largs Bay.Tried it down the Coorong with same technique and couldn't get any.Just fish frames in an old stocking works for me.Hope this helps,Steve

You'll want sea conditions with a calm day and low tide

Ive dug them whist cockling at Goolwa.Dab a couple of ST frames in the top of the wash and see what pokes its head up!

if your south of metro try moana, to the right of the life saving club down towards the rocks or aldinga / sellicks, usually bigger worms but patchy ! i use cows liver but bag of fish frames works just as well.Must admit i havent done a lot of worming in the colder months but im guessing theyre still available?

Here is my youtube vid I made.

why not just get an electric reel. cant see you stripping one of them. no offence but i find winching fish in boring. ten lb braid and 30lb leader is the go for me on my lil saltist bayrubber rod. 2500r luvias. now thats fun. but hey. each to there own my mate whos a pro out from prahan uses handlines and still dominates :)goood luck

hi check out this school of monster salmon taking shelter in one of the Coombra Lagoons @ Yalata on South Oz's Far West Coast. not feeding & very fussy we still managed few fish from this school(plus a tailor). some of the salmon landed close to 5kg, some larger not landed enjoy cheers BigAshhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S73U52L3oq8

been working in moonta this week so snuck in a 2hr session after work each night.fished moonta the first three days and got 28 squid, so come wednesday i thort id try for tommies at hughes. got to hughes to find the gents dead so killed that idea but snook were jumpin so had a crack with the soft plastic and got three with 1 undersize that went back.last night thort id try for the snook again.. got the technique down packd and landed 7. got bit off by a biggie at the jetty which suckd.anyway it beats sitting in the pub and giving all ur money to the tabedit : pics arnt working

had a great weekend throwing lures at mullys saturday morning i got this fella at the onkAnd heres one of the many on plastics today down the coorong

Hi DylbaaI have thought long and hard about this subject and what I have got for myself isShimano TLD 25 on a short rod 15/24Kg, roller tip in solid glass. (I have six of them)Should be about $200 all up from BCF on specialYou can only use this outfit for shark fishing, snapper, snook trolling and game fishing but its worth having a special outfit for this.

The Torium would be my choice, could match it to $50 rod if you wanted! It'd be fine.Sure the high end gear is nicer to use, but plenty of fish landed on the lesser.One thing to consider tho, is that a suitable over head won't be very versatile if u want to throw lighter lures/poppers.Maybe a Saragosa spinner would be better unless u want to use the Torium for any high speed work.

Depends on where you plan to fish but for most areas 15lb is fine . If you are near or fishing in some decent current then the fish can use this current to it's advantage and then you will also need to up your main line as well as leader . For example if i was fishing the Onk then i would use 4-9lb line with a 12-20lb leader , For the Coorong i was using 12lb main with a 20lb leader but if i was closer to the mouth i would of gone 20lb main with a 30-40lb leader . In the port the current can be huge and i have been using 40lb line and leader but this was with bait . These are not rules but hopefully a guide to help you out , but see what you feel comfortable with and what casts well also . no good having heavy line if you cant cast to where the fish are . If you get onto a few but keep getting busted of then up you leader size ? Good luck fella .
