i have famillyfriends in Mclaren vale - there most recent trip they took their daughtesr boyfriend for his first go at fishing from a boat - first hit he caught a 12kg snapper was massive - most fish they catch dont fit in a pan normally in the BBQ only -

Geoff, South Australia has to be among the best spots for snapper. I haven't been as far as Whyalla but have got some big ones near Wedge Island and also Cape Jervis. Last time we went we got a 91 and 92 cm with my first 2 drops. We got our limit and ended up chasing KGW, Salmon and Snook for a bit more fun. Good luck and make sure you have plenty of porridge before you head out. Will look forward to your reports, so try to remember what you did. Cheers, Neil.

how did you go?

[Geoff]

We were due to fish last Monday , the weather turned vey nasty on Sunday night & the charter was canceled so we packed up on Monday morning & headed for the wineries in Clare valley.

No fishing but over the following 4 days visited lots of wineries & tried their products.
