Glenelg River Fishing Session

Here, Mullet are a little oily, but good eating even so. But, so much tricky to fish. I already desisted of them. Big schools ever passing front, but ever no bite.

I fished the Glenelg river yesterday, i first fished the upper section at a place a small town called 'Donovans' the South Australian section of the river  -



Donovans jetty is a good place to fish & relax -



Donovans has great views of the pristine Glenelg river estuary -



Later i moved to the lower sections of the estuary for a fish -



Yellow Eye Mullet are great fun to catch & test the anglers skill, as hooking them is often difficult -



I caught many Bay Trout  that i used as live bait for Mulloway, i caught Yellow Eye Mullet -



Three nice big Bream to 40cm -



It was a nice winters fishing session on the Glenelg river estuary 

I fished the Glenelg river Estuary again this evening for a few hours -



It was quiet fishing with No bites at the start & later on the bite's started up -



My rod buckled over with the 8lbs line screaming off, i hooked a nice 'And Rare' 34.5cm Estuary Perch   



This is my first Estuary Perch, these fish are excellent light line sport fish & are great fighter + great eating am told -



I also caught & released another smaller Estuary Perch 'My Second' 



Later as the afternoon was becoming night, my rod buckled over again with line screaming off 'Big Bream On' -



I hooked a nice 37cm hard fighting Southern Black Bream   



End of my estuary fishing session, i got a nice Estuary Perch, Big Bream, a Australian Salmon & two Bay Trout for bait - 



Calm water estuary fishing is relaxing & very enjoyable, catching is a bonus in my opinion 

Yes it was a good fishing session, i caught my first Estuary Perch

I went for a estuary fishing session yesterday evening on the Glenelg river -



Fished with my Daiwa Free Swimmer BR 3000 reels, Gary Howard custom made Estuary 8' rods -



This was the first fishing session with my new estuary Daiwa reels & estuary 8' rods - 



I fished a section called 'The Isle Of Bags' -



A couple of anglers launched their traditional 'Putt Putt' estuary fishing boat -



These are old school classic style estuary river boats -



Classic 'Putt Putt' estuary river boats are still ever popular on the Glenelg river - 



Even though i burley up the spot, i only managed two smaller Estuary Perch, which i released both 'It was Quiet' -
