Episode 163: Brad Towler, Fleurieu Charters
This week we have a huge guest who has made some SA Fishing history in the last few days, catching a barrel sized Southern Bluefin Tuna off the Fleurieu Peninsula. After first seeing some massive fish on the sounder and having his school Tuna gear spooled, he returned the next day with heavier tackle and sealed the deal! Brad gives us an insight into how hes been catching them over multiple trips out this week, plus talks us through a slower than normal School Tuna season but strong recent form on Whiting, Gummy sharks and reef species! This is a chat not to be missed and very timely with these fish only being caught for the first time this week!
As always, we have all the latest fishing news, including:
- Artificial reef modules deployed off Wirrina and KI this week with temporary fishing closures in place for the next 12 months.
- The Australian Salmon Championship is about to kick off in Eliston.
- OzFish is now looking for assistance from the public with collecting seagrass fragments as a part of their ‘Seagrass for Blue Swimmers’ Project at West Lakes.
- Algae numbers on the rise in Port Lincoln.
- A huge illegal haul of 240 Blue Swimmer Crabs, many of which were undersized.
We also have all of the latest fishing reports, including Winter Whiting, Barrel Tuna, Garfish sighted at Port Turton and Sunfish footage off Fowlers Bay. While Dizzy has a theory on using a ‘Throw Flasher’ for rod and reel fishing instead of its normal application in Spear Fishing!
