    These things make excellent compost / fertilizer in the garden. Just dig holes, chop it up and bury it. Then leave it and watch things grow. You WILL be surprised. "Oh" and don't let the dog get it.

    There are some very rare fish in the Torrens, one of only two places I know they exist, they are listed as ‘extinct’ species. Strange that they survive well in such polluted waters.

      @jasonjpl5301 2 роки тому

      @@stringbean1010 i tried around the convention centre and somewhere around 2k past bonython park. i did some research and found that the governent has done some electrofishing (elecrecuting fish) in the torrens lake (around the billabong to the torrens weir) and they have reduced the amount of fish to around 280 kg of carp per hectare (10000km swuared) and they hope that if they continue this they can reduce it to around. 80 kg per hectare in 2027. i think that. because of this there should be more carp past the weir in the section leading to henley. It wont be very convenient because me and my friends ride our bikes to the river and fish so we will have to ride quite far to catch carp now.

    Hello Mate , I am currently residing on Adelaide. I am interested at fishing. But, I have a lot to learn. You are really good at techniques and everything. Can you help me ? I caught 16 carps so far in clayton bay, a small sized salmon in west lakes here. I am really interested in Salmon Fishing can give me some tips, advise and stuff ? I use frozen pilchard as bait, what do you think about that ?
    Thanks

      G'day mate.
      Awesome to hear that you have been catching fish! Some people struggle to even find fish. Salmon have been tough this year. But on a good year, you can get plenty down south on the surf beaches using pilchards on a paternoster rig. South port beach, christies beach, waitpinga beach and parsons beach. Hopefully next year is a better one! Good luck mate.

      30-50 gram metal lures work well off the beach in heavy swell. Otherwise good lures off jetties and in estuaries are the Daiwa Double Clutch ans Zman Slim Swimz.
      The reason why you didn't hook any might be because of the hook size. Also make sure that the hook is exposed with the bait on it.

      I would never eat the fish in the Torrens downstream of the gorge where the river enters the city suburbs, upstream from there should be no problem, the water is pretty clean.
