Send us Fan MailEpisode 158: Andy Farrer  - Skipper in Pt Lincoln Tuna Classic & Asher Dezsery - RecFish SAThis week we are joined by Andy Farrer, Skipper of Catfish, who has only missed 3 events in the Port Lincoln Tuna Classics 20 year history. He talks us through some of his successful years, why he loves the competition and how he is preparing for this weekend's competition. Andy really sums up what is great about the Port Lincoln Tuna Classic, he competes really hard on the water and then enjoys the social side of the event, having a drink and bantering with other competitors as much as anyone!We are also lucky to be joined for part of the news segment by Asher Dezsery from RecFish SA to discuss the announcements made by Peter Malinauskas in the lead up to the election. Asher fills us in on what is planned for the new Recreational Fishing Authority, what RecFish can do with further funding over the next 4 years and also touches on what the Opposition has proposed if they are successful and also an update on tagging of fish for future rounds of the Let’s Go Fishing Competition!We also explain a competition we are running for our listeners to celebrate the Port Lincoln Tuna Classic, we are giving away a Shimano Socorro 10,000 (which is also our tackle item of the week) for whoever can get ‘closest to the pin’ of how many Tuna our boat will catch over the 2 day weekend! Keep an eye on our social media for more details!Our fishing report is dominated by Port Lincoln fishing including an update on the Tuna fishing prior to the competition, the flathead season is upon us and Jamie Crawford showed the IFish team the best of the fishing around Port Lincoln with Whiting, Crabs, Nannygai and Sharks all playing the game!
