Episode 78: Katrine Hildyard and Kelly Wise 

This week we are lucky enough to have 2 excellent guests. Firstly we are joined by Katrine Hildyard, the Member for Reynell in Adelaide’s southern suburbs and also the Minister for Sport and Recreation. It was great to hear about some fishing related news in her local area including an update on the O’Sullivans Beach boat ramp and friend of the show Mark Mills winning the Citizen of the Year for the Onkaparinga Council. We also chatted about wider fishing issues such as additional funding that is available now fishing is recognised as a sport, a bit of an update on Snapper and discuss the upcoming RecFish SA Fishing Adventure Day

We are also joined by Kelly Wise, Skipper of ‘The Salty One’, the winning boat in the recent Port Lincoln Tuna Comp. Kelly gives a great wrap up of the competition, tells the story of catching the winning fish and gives a great review if what sounded like an epic weekend away for all competitors. 

Plus we have all the fishing news including:

·      The Pirtek Fishing Challenge is now open to SA Fishos

·      Encounter Bay kayak rescue

·      Issues with trailers at Marion Bay

·      An update on Snapper fingerlings for release soon into the gulfs.

As always we have a full fishing report including tuna across the state and freshwater fishing in the southern reservoirs, plus discuss the Bait Ezy crab bait holder in our tackle item of the week.
