Episode 141: Jamie Crawford

This week we are joined by another repeat guest and regular SA Angler contributor Jamie Crawford from Port Lincoln, to discuss the variety of different species he targets with great success. We chat about flicking soft plastics for flathead, targeting table size bronze whalers, Eyre Peninsula King Fish, Callop from the Murray and big Salmon from the beaches around Port Lincoln. He shares plenty of tips on how to catch as many fish as he does and even lets us in on his go to soft plastic for big flathead: The Squidgies 110mm Ridge Shad. 

We also cover all the news in SA Fishing, including lots on the current Algal Bloom situation:

• Dolphin death blamed on starvation. 
• The SA Government briefing the rest of the country.
• $28 million of funding from state and federal governments. 
• PIRSA giving the ok to eat seafood
• Northbank Wallaroo fishing competition cancelled.

While in other news we cover the AFTA Tackle Show where all of the fishing brands are launching new gear, including the new Shimano 700mm insulated fish bag that stays super cold for 3 days and we are keen to fill with Whiting, Squid and Nannygai!

A bit more positivity in the fishing report with plenty of Whiting on the western side of Yorkes, including Port Hughes Fishing Charters catching 60 KGW in 10 minutes! Elsewhere there are Salmon on the Fleurieu, plenty of freshwater species firing and Bream in the Port River also going well.
