Episode 144: Richard Hill, Savage Tackle
This week we are joined by Richard Hill, the new owner of Savage Tackle, a local SA company making top quality sinkers, burley pots and all things lead! Richard was kind enough to take us out fishing out from Port Hughes, in his beautiful boat, alongside previous owner and good mate Simon Hill. We chat about our day out, the great fishing on offer around Port Hughes at the moment as well as chatting about all things making sinkers!
We also have all of the news in SA fishing, including:
- A plan for a ‘bubble curtain’ to protect the prized cuttlefish eggs near Whyalla.

- The 20th Onka Stompa is coming up, including a tribute to the late Mark Mills.
- The Port Noarlunga Jetty is re-opened after storm damage has been repaired
We chat about upgrading our boats gaff as our tackle item of the week and discuss our competition promoting positivity in SA fishing with a great prize of a Shimano Ultegra 2500 and Izalus 702 rod!
