Reeling in the Summer Heat

Despite a sprinkle of rain mid-week, the weather is expected to be excellent with northeasterly winds, making for ideal conditions for fishing. The South Coast has been thriving with good catches of game fish, including cob, garrick, and the occasional out-of-season shad. Freshwater fishing has also been strong, with solid catches of bass and carp in various dams, particularly at Midmar and Albert Falls, and excellent trout fishing in the Midlands.
The North Coast is seeing a steady stream of non-edible fish, including honeycombs, sand sharks, and even some offshore dorado and tuna. The warmer waters and good conditions have fueled the summer fishing boom, with boat anglers enjoying great success as the sea settles. The harbour is also producing grunter, springer, and kingfish.
