Giant Snapper From SA's Glory Days!

In this blast from the past, Steve 'Starlo' Starling and his wife Jo Starling join Shane Mensforth and The Fishing DVD crew on South Australian Gulf waters to chase some truly epic snapper on their Squidgy soft plastics.

This one takes us back to the halcyon days before SA's snapper stocks crashed and had to be protected with total bans. But word on the water is that the stocks are now rebuilding strongly... So, could we ever see fishing like this again in our southern seas? It's certainly something to dream about!

"The Fishing DVD" (later changing its name to Fishing Downunder) was a much-loved quarterly video magazine that appeared for many years during the early 2000s and became a firm favourite with lots of Aussie anglers, as well as numerous overseas fans. Produced by the dynamic duo of John & Peta Haenke, this DVD series represents a priceless archive of angling action from right around the country and beyond... and now we're delighted to share some of it with a whole new generation of fishers!

These days, the Haenkes are semi-retired and living in Bowen, north Queensland, but still very active in fishing (especially John's passion of fly fishing). John has also revealed his artistic streak and eye for detail via his on-line shop, selling his original artwork in several formats. You'll find that outlet here: https://artwork-by-john-haenke.square.site/
