Greg James’ S.A. Seasonal Fishing Calendar
72
This new book from Greg James is unique! It’s meant to be used like your own on-water street directory - a Fishing
Pathfinder! The maps are drawn to an international grid scale based on the accurate application of latitude and
longitude from the international Global Positioning System (GPS).
You can:
•
Apply Greg’s many GPS fishing marks to the relevant maps and then add your own!
•
Design your own “go-to” routes and save time and money when you go fishing!
•
Travel to new locations and not waste time and more money on trying to find fishing grounds that only
the locals know about!
•
Use the book for both shore-based and boat fishing marks and plan your fishing trips!
•
Use the fish and rig sketches to ID, target and catch your favourite fish species.
•
WGS84 compatible - If you have a boat, car or hand-held GPS unit that needs GPS marks with that extra
final digit, simply add a “0” or a “5” and away you go!
TIGHT LINES!

FISHCARE volunteers protecting
precious resources
FISHCARE volunteers are dedicated people who give their time, energy and effort to help others understand the
rules and regulations that apply to recreational fishing in South Australia.
The volunteer program is a key pillar of PIRSA Fisheries and Aquaculture’s education and awareness initiatives,
helping promote responsible and sustainable fishing practices now and in the future.
FISHCARE volunteers are a great information resource, with teams located across the South Australian coastline and
in the Riverland. You’ll see them at jetties, beaches, boat ramps, field days, shows and community events where
they offer advice, assistance and free fishing information to interested members of the public.
Anyone over the age of 18, male or female, can become a Fishcare Volunteer. All you need is an interest in conserving
our fisheries resources and be willing to provide helpful information to the fishing public of South Australia.
If you are interested in joining this dynamic group of volunteers, please contact: FISHCARE Volunteer Coordinator

Best Fish, Best Rigs, Best Bait
1. Blue Crabs
The famous blue crab – not a fish – is Greg James favourite marine species of all time! Portunus pelagicus is also known as
the blue swimmer or blue manna crab and can be caught with drop nets or dabbed from the shore. The fertilised female
is called a ‘sponge crab’ and produces an incredible 2 million odd larvae in mating season. The larvae (zoea) are swept out
to sea and covered in an external ‘exoskeleton’ which has to be shed for growth to progress. Female crabs moult regularly
and achieve full size in their second year (our SA summer).
The protective actions of the male
crab after mating need to be seen to
be believed – the male fully protects
the softer shelled female (jenny) until
her shell hardens and she is safe from
predators.
Males are a brilliant dark blue on top with
a white under-carriage. Females are a
mottled green/blue and grey. Best bait is
fish frames.
Table Eating Quality:
2. Flathead
Flathead are from the fish family of Platycephalidae and are known to enjoy the habitats such as estuaries and southern
sandy flats and beaches of the Australian coast. They are particularly notable for having their rather large eyes on the
top of a flattened head, giving excellent binocular vision to attack overhead prey and as such, are somewhat similar to
flounder.
The better known Australian species are dusky, sand and tiger. Dusky brown and striped with colours of sand also apparent.
Best bait is bloodworms, cockles, plastics.
3. Garfish
Southern garfish (Hyporhamphus melanochir) is a schooling species of pelagic fish that forage and inhabit sheltered bays
and coastal estuaries across Southern Australia in waters to a depth of 20 metres. These fish alternate between the
surface and the sea floor, seeking safety and food in beds of seagrass and ribbon weed.
Garfish belong to the marine half-beak fish family which are omnivores feeding on algae and marine plants such as
seagrasses. Plankton, crustaceans and small fish also form part of their diet. A beautiful blue/green on top, running to a
silver body. Best bait is gents, cockles.
4. Kingfish
The highly-prized Kingfish is in fact a mackerel from the Carangidae family of fishes, which makes it a close relation to fish
like tuna, wahoo and bonito. Features of the Australian Kingfish include two dorsal fins and a unique ability to ‘hide’ its
dorsal fins in clefts of the fish body itself - making it an outstanding swimming and hunting machine!
Kingies spawn seasonally around reasonably shallow reefs and sometimes in sheltered bays where their buoyant eggs
benefit from warm water and a reasonably good supply of plankton-like food for early stage sustenance and life. Incredibly,
Kingfish eggs (spawn) have a minute droplet of fish oil embedded in the larvae which maintains buoyancy! Kingfish have
mainly a carnivore diet which consists of other smaller fish species, baby squid and shrimps. Colouring is deep grey on top
running to silver/grey bottom, often with yellow-fringed fins. Best bait is fish pieces, soft squid, pilchards/mulies.
5. Mullet
There are 16 known species of mullet in Australia with the yelloweye mullet in SA being one of the more famous - Coorong
Mullet - a much-loved table species for many years. The yelloweye and grey mullet is from the fish family of Mugiligae
and inhabit our coastal estuaries, creeks and sandy beaches. Both species can be identified by their distinct colouring and
the presence of two clearly separate dorsal fins.
Mullet generally feed on seaweeds and grasses, small molluscs, shellfish and sea worms. Grey and more grey with mixtures
of white and silver! Best bait is gents, cockles, pilchards/mulies.
6. Mulloway
Rapidly becoming a famous species targeted by shore-based anglers, the Argyrosomus japonicus is a silver/bronze
coloured fish which grow up to 2 metres in length and weigh anything up to 42 plus kilograms! We call it mulloway in SA,
while our West Aussie cousins know it as Jewfish, the name coming from the large ‘earstones’ which are located behind
and below the eyes.
For many years it was and still is sold in restaurants and take-away food outlets as butterfish, a delicious, rich and creamy
tasting fish, often battered and cooked in hot oil. Mulloway feed on smaller fish species, molluscs, small crabs and
crustaceans. Green/brown top, large scales running to an off-white body that reflects its bottom feeding nature. Best bait
is fish strips, pilchards/mulies, lures, plastics.
7. Red Nannygai
The Centroberyx gerrardi lives from the continental shelf to our rocky shores, forming dense schools close to the bottom at
dawn and dusk and dispersing at night to feed. Juveniles also aggregate in schools and are found in estuaries and shallow
coastal waters to feed on small fish, crustaceans and molluscs.
Over exploitation by commercial trawling and netting has drastically reduced the nannygai numbers since the 1950’s. Here
is a beautiful fish species that has clearly demonstrated lineage to Australia’s un-equalled ancient marine history. Exact
fossils of this fish are found high in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia - demonstrating the fact that it was here millions
of years before any humans came close to our shores!
Greg James believes Australian governments should place the red snapper on the endangered species list for a minimum
of 10 years to help recovery of the species. Often pink more than red, the colours also include white and yellow with blue
and white horizontal stripes.
Best bait is fish pieces, soft squid,
whole pilchards/mulies, plastics.
8. Salmon
A beautiful fish with an enormous migratory habit, salmon gather in huge schools off the NSW and Victorian coasts for
migration to Western Australia in January each year. They spawn at sea and then enter bays and estuaries to feed, with
the younger fish often known as salmon trout.
Scientific name is Arripis trutta and they will take most baits when feeding. Salmon can be caught from the beach in the
deeper sandy holes in the surf, off rocky points and by boat when trolling. A great fish to eat very fresh or smoked and
cured. Colouring is shaded green/brown with yellow spots fading to silver/white underbelly. Best bait is lures, pilchards/
mulies, small fish fillets.

9. Snapper
The beautiful, iconic snapper is one of our most instantly recognized fish with several intriguing family/botanic names such
as Pagrus auratus & Chrysophyrus auratus.
To many anglers it is a glamour fish - a much sought after species and has subsequently been heavily fished for decades.
Snapper can take up to five (5) years after birth to choose their sex and vary in colour from dark red to a bright pink, with
colourful sparkling blue beauty spots across the main part of the body. Juvenile (baby) snapper, also known as rugger
snapper, are found in relatively sheltered marine waters while the adults tend to inhabit reefs, rocky ledges & drop-offs
in greater depths.
Snapper in South Australian waters will spawn between late October and early March, with most snapper in the gulf
waters reaching sexual maturity when they reach 28cm in length. An interesting size:age chart for snapper is as follows:
28cms = 5 years / 38cms = 6 years 60cms = 12 years / 90+cms = 35 years.
Research indicates that snapper prefer
a diet which includes octopus, leafy
sea-dragons, blue, velvet & sand crab,
squid, abalone, sea urchins & mussels.
Best bait is fish pieces, mushy squid,
small whole fish.
10. Snook
Also known as the Sea Pike, this beautiful fish is a relative to the barracuda family and is found in all Australian States and
grows up to 1 metre or more in length. The scientific name is Sphyraena novaehollandiae which means it was one of the
very first fish caught and named by the European navigators in the 15th & 16th century on their journeys to the Great
South Land, most likely by the early Dutch seafarers as their ships sailed along our southern coastline.
Snook are caught by trolling with lures from a boat or off jetties. Colouring is black/deep blue running to dark silver. Best
bait is lures, flotation bladder, fish strips.
(smoked) (fresh)
11. Squid
From the marine family of ‘Cephalopods’ (ancient Greek for ‘head with feet’) there are several hundred squid species
around the world. These are truly beautiful and amazing creatures, possessing 3 hearts (each with 3 chambers), a waterfuelled, oscillating jet propulsion system and a skin that is made up of chromatophores (enabling camouflage).
The tough beak in the mouth is comprised of chitin & even the stomachs of whales cannot digest it. Interestingly, marine
scientific research is arriving at the conclusion that squid (& cuttlefish) are believed to be colour-blind! Colours are varied
from dark brown, green and grey to a clear, opaque body.
Best bait is lures/jigs, fish. Respect & protect the cephalopod family by not using them as live bait for other species!
12. Sweep
There are several species of this great little ‘rascal’ fish and they are generally found around our exposed reefs & rocky
bottoms in surging tides and rough water. The Scorpis aequipinnis can grow up to 40cm & schools with snapper & trevalley.
Sweep are aggressive feeders and inhabit the coastline in SA from Fowlers Bay on the West Coast through to Port
McDonnell in the State’s South East. If there is ever a species that reflects the exquisite beauty of our coastline habitats,
Greg James feels The Banded Sweep is it! Colours are grey with silver and one/two black vertical lines on main body of
fish. Best bait is cockle, squid, pilchards/mulies.
13. Tommy Ruff
One of our most loveable, frisky, spiky and enduring fish species found in South Australia. The politically correct advocates
would want us call it the ‘Australian Herring’ but we all know, love and call it ‘Tommy Ruff’ or as Greg calls them ‘Mr Ruffs,
Monster Ruffs, Rascally Ruffs and Monster Tomsters’.
The Arripis georgianus is a true-blood of the family of salmon, pilchard (mulies) and sardine fishes and for jetty anglers
often one of the first caught when they go fishing. The Ruffs go to school with companion fish such as gar, snook and
mullet and can grow to close to a kilo in weight and size.
The largest recorded jetty-caught ruff in SA came in at just under 800gms from the Stenhouse Bay jetty in the late 1970’s.
Colouring a mottled grey/green drifting to striped sides and silver belly. A Monster Tomster Ruff for sure!
Best bait is gents, cockles, pilchards/mulies.
(fresh)
(smoked)
14. Trevally
The magnificent Trevally, Pseudocaranx dentex from the extensive Carangidae family of fishes is generally found in the
bays and recesses of South Australia’s coastal waters. Many juveniles inhabit estuaries & offshore reef systems after having
been incubated from an extensive egg system that is pelagic (meaning they exist near the surface). After expending eggs
most adult fish head out into relatively deeper water and have been recorded swimming in depths of up to 300 metres..
Greg James believes South Australia’s two gulfs provide a critically important shelter for the trevally i.e. anywhere from the
western and eastern tip of Kangaroo Island in a direct line to Cape Jervis (east) and Louth Bay (west) - as one of the world’s
largest natural breeding grounds! A bright green and yellow pique fading to white.
Best bait is soft squid, lures, plastics, fish pieces.
15. Whiting - King George
An iconic fish almost endemic to marine fishing and life in Australia, the Sillaginodes punctatus inhabits coastal areas
from Jurien Bay in the West to Botany Bay in the East. It is the largest member of the smelt-whiting family and is easily
distinguished by the patterns of silvery/brown spots and its length.
First named by the explorer Cuvier in 1829, the name ‘King George’ was actually taken from ‘King George Sound’, the
body of water where it was caught, rather than the bloke himself. A natural bottom feeder, there is some evidence that KG
whiting use a system of ‘sonar’ searching for prey rather than sight. Colouring is brown spots on top to an off-white side
and belly. Often covered in a clear protective thick mist.
Best bait is cockles, sandworms, very soft squid, plastics.
16. Whiting - Yellowfin
The yellowfin whiting Sillago schomburgkii (aka the sand whiting) is a member of the smelt-whiting family Sillaginidae, as
is the KG whiting. Identifiable by the yellow fins and silver body, these lovely fish live across a large coastal area from Gulf
St Vincent in SA right round to Dampier in WA in relatively shallow waters for perhaps their entire life.
Yellowfin whiting are benthic carnivores, taking a diet of sea-worms, bugs, clickers and small crustaceans. Reproduction
occurs often during the warm weather spells with an incredible 217,000 eggs produced per season! Shorter than kg
whiting and distinguishable by its light brown top, small yellow fins and white under-belly.
Best bait is bloodworms, cockles, very soft squid.
