Episode 137: Ethan Yeo
This week we are joined by Ethan Yeo; gun spearfisherman, professional diver and social media star. Ethan has quickly gone from first finding his passion for spearfishing to working as diver on the Great Barrier Reef catching Crayfish, guiding in Tonga and collecting 11,000 Periwinkles per day when working in the states South East. He also has some epic recreational catches, including a 103kg Southern Bluefin Tuna and big Samson Fish and Kingfish locally, as well as plenty of epic tropical catches in queensland and overseas. He has grown a huge social media presence who love seeing his epic adventures and is up to 147 million views on youtube and has over 60,000 Instagram followers. It is great to hear all about both his professional and recreational diving both locally and abroad.
We also chat about all of the SA fishing news which largely centres around the storms we had last week, covering:
- Damage to some local jetties and infrastructure.
- Will the storms help to disperse the Algal Bloom
- The storms look to have pushed some of the Algae into the Coorong - Hopefully the damage from this is minimal.
Plus we chat about the Australian Salmon Fishing Competition in Elliston, a pilchard virus in Tasmania and a group that are awaiting and trying to minimise the impact of the expected arrival of a new bird flu to South Australia.
Plus we have a brief fishing report, with bad weather and Algae limiting a lot of fishing, but we are optimistic things might be on the up with winter Whiting, Australian Salmon and Barrel Tuna expected to fire again soon! Our tackle item of the week is the Survival First Aid: Ocean Warrior Kit that we are lucky to have as some prizes to give away in the coming weeks, thanks to Mike and the Survival First Aid team!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
