Episode 142 : Jordan Saliba 

This week we are joined by Jordan Saliba, a repeat guest on the show after first joining us in episode 57, all the way back in May 2022. Jordan talks about some of the articles he has written for SA Angler, his work running fishing clinics for RecFish SA and how the Algal Bloom has been affecting his own fishing! He also talks to us about kayak fishing for squid, whiting and even his PB catch of a 91cm Kingfish, as well as sharing his own experience doing some Drone Fishing recently!

We also discuss all of the SA fishing news, including an update on all things related to the Algal Bloom:

• The Government has announced a package to help recreational fishing.
• Community forums around the state + a channel 7 news special. 
• State parliament travels to the Yorke Peninsula to get a first hand look. 
• BOM and Pirsa are working on predicting future marine heat waves. 

In other news we also cover:

• OzFish building Oyster Reefs.
• Australian bass to be stocked in local reservoirs.
• The Ardrossan Jetty to be closed for 6 months for repairs.

We chat about the Shimano Izalus rod as our tackle item of the week, it's a light weight rod that is unbelievably cheap for its quality and we are lucky to have one included in an upcoming prize! We also have all the fishing reports from across the state, including Port Hughes firing for Whiting, barrel sized Tuna reappearing at Port MacDonnell, Nannygai off Marion bay, while Salmon fishing and the freshwater scene are continuing to fish well!
