It has been another terrible stretch of weather again this past week and looking forward we are in for another week of strong wind and four to six metres of swell.


We have had few windows of opportunity to fish the coast comfortably, but as usual Flynn Thomas made the effort and raced down to Piccaninnie Beach for a quick session last Thursday evening.


He was hoping for an early snapper but instead was rewarded with a nice gummy shark and salmon.


We are starting to hear of some nice snapper off Portland’s Lee breakwater so they should start to turn up here shortly.


September is prime time for big salmon along our south east coast but as our weather continues to play havoc, reports have been few and far between.


Good schools have regularly been spotted by the cray fishos, but they have been hanging out wide.


When the sea eventually settles down, I have no doubt we are in for some excellent fishing.


We have had a few Coorong reports filter through and from all accounts the beaches are very soft, and the big swells have moved a huge amount of sand.


So, if you are heading up that way anytime soon, take it slowly and make sure you let your tyres down before you get into strife and not after.


I am told the gummies have been okay if you can get through the salmon.


It is time to get the yabby gear out and head inland.


Normally this time of year the yabbies are dominating every fishing report, but the weather has been so terrible most fishos are waiting for the sun to come out.


Let’s hope it’s sooner not later.


How lucky are we to have the Glenelg River so close.


Even in the worst weather it is still fishable, if you are keen enough! Mulloway reports are showing signs of slowly improving.


Hayden Sneath and crew trolled lures from Dry Creek up to Sandy Waterholes last weekend.


They hooked a couple of decent mulloway but pulled hooks unfortunately.


The guys got a good look at one fish and called it for around 75cm.


Not a monster by any means but a mulloway is a mulloway.


We also heard of a couple of really good fish from Dry Creek hooked on bait.


Again, no fish landed but still encouraging.


The estuary perch are schooled up in good numbers along the same stretch.


Troll or cast smallish hard bodies or plastics and you will have no trouble hooking up.


Looking at the bright side of fishing, if we are not out there catching them, they are only getting bigger!


Until next week safe fishing.
