Fishing Guide
Yorke Peninsula is one of Australia’s most appealing, accessible
and affordable destinations for an angling based holiday.
Whether you’re a serious fishing fanatic or simply like to
drop a line from the jetty, there are few locations nation-wide
that offer as much in such a compact package.
It doesn’t matter whether you’re experienced or a novice,
there’s great action to be had from boat, shore or jetty!Head to yorkepeninsula.com.au or contact

upped the ante to sharks and snapper
during teenage years. We managed to
land some quite hefty whaler sharks
during the spring and summer months, a
couple of which would have nudged 200
kilos, and the odd nice snapper to 12kg
or so. I’m not sure about the snapper, but
I’m pretty sure the sharks would still be
there for those with the right gear and a
sense of adventure.
Edithburgh’s boat harbor is yet
another excellent facility, with all-tide
ramp and easy car parking. This is the
gateway to some excellent offshore
fishing grounds, prominent among
which is Tapley Shoal and a host of
renowned whiting areas closer to shore.
It takes a little while to find your way
around off Edithburgh, but once you
have a few reliable spots in the GPS, the
fishing can be pretty good.
As you’d expect, the town is very
well equipped for visiting anglers. Thecaravan park is first rate and holiday
rentals abound. Google is definitely your
friend when searching for short-stay
accommodation anywhere on YP, and
I would advise picking up a copy of the
Yorke Peninsula Fishing Guide to fill in
any information gaps.Edithburgh is among the most
popular YP holiday destinationsuoS
