Welcome to the column with all the hot tips for fishing around Yorke Peninsula; contact Greg by email at greg@gregjamesfishing.com.au.

Port Broughton: King George whiting are in the shallows around the tidal grounds north towards Shag Island and Wood Point, then well offshore at the Plank Shoals. Garfish and blue crabs have been the other main reports at the jetty in the late afternoon sea breezes.

Wallaroo: Fine weather made for ideal week-long fishing conditions at the jetty as keen anglers tried for tommy ruff (Australian herring), squid and blue crabs, while boat crews went out for whiting, gar, snook and blueys. Bream and a few mullet are around the marina and off Point Riley.

Moonta Bay/Port Hughes: KG whiting are here in the northern reaches of Moonta Bay and then well south of Port Hughes towards Cape Elizabeth and the Steamer Channel, along with blueys and a few squid. Early season mullet are making an appearance at local beaches on the afternoon high tides, with the jetties worth a try for gar, squid, snook and blue crabs.

Point Turton: Some big gar and whiting from The Banks, Point Souttar (shallow high tide) and Port Rickaby have been the main reports this week. The jetty has squid and small garfish.

Stenhouse Bay/Marion Bay: Tuna are still being targeted by the boat crews fishing the grounds well offshore along with red nannygai, kingfish and trevalley. Closer to shore there are a few whiting, flathead, squid and snook. Shore-based anglers are reporting mulloway, mullet and flathead from Gleesons Landing and Butlers, Browns and Hillocky Beaches.

Edithburgh/Stansbury: A couple of large KG whiting were caught south of Rocky Gully and Troubridge Light, just west of the prawn trawler lay-ups, along with pesky leather jackets and blue morwong. Snook are around Marion Reef and Troubridge Island with the town jetty holding a few ruff and squid at night.

Ardrossan: Garfish and blue crabs were the main report for boat crews as they used the good weather to run out to the old north-east reef and then south of the main loading jetty. The town fishing jetty has overnight soapie mulloway and a few blue crabs.

Tight lines and see you next week!
