Hi,
Am planning a trip to Adelaide and would appreciate some advice on single day offshore fishing charter/s. Some local knowledge or recommendation of the charters or skipper/deck hands will be greatly appreciated. Am after the great SA Snapper/reef fishes etc.

Many Thanks for all responses!

I can't be too much of a help other than to say u will have to travel to either York Peninsular, say Moonta or marion Bay or down Victor Harbour way. There may be local charters but u will spend too much time getting to and from the fishing in the boat.

Howdy Con,
can recommend Reef Encounters, based at Pondalowie Bay, Yorke Peninsula, 0407609988 ask for Mark. Also Port Victoria Charters, 08 8834 2069. Sea Ranger Fishing Charters operates out of Marion Bay, 0408885725. Don't think you will be disappointed with any of these.
Cheers Peter and Lez

Whyalla (bit of a drive from Adelade!!) is meant to be the spot for snapper in SA...try K & R Charters.

You can ofcourse put a boat in at Port Pirie (FREE BOAT RAMP) and save 2 hours travelling time!!

Wouldn't have thought so, the Whyalla snapper comp is held at Easter, plenty of BIG snapper caught then.
