Episode 102: Gavin Matthews

This week we are joined by Kangaroo Island local, Gavin, who joined us for an epic day of Tuna fishing on our recent week long trip over to KI. It was great to have some local knowledge on the day and awesome to have an expert local on the show to discuss all things KI fishing! He shares some of his best experiences fishing on the Island, and gives an update on the Tuna season they are having over there including his own recent success catching Tuna off Island Beach recently!

Plus we have a full recap of the rest of our KI trip, including plenty of whiting, lots of time getting the kids on the boat and a run in with not 1 but 2 local Kangaroos on the first morning! 

As always we have all the SA fishing news including:

  • A recently released SA recreational fishing tourism strategy.
  • A wrap up of the Coast 2 Coast Comp and preview of the Wirrina Comp.
  • SA Angler going digital instead of hard copy. 
  • King Penguin sightings across the state.

We also have all the fishing reports across the state, including our own KI fishing, an update on where the Tuna are biting and some better reports of Blue Swimmer Crabs and Yellowfin Whiting as the weather finally warms up!

And finally our first listener question sent in by former guest Ben Calvert with an answer from a reputable source!
