Podcast Description: Hi Tide Fishing Show – December 20th
Hook into the ultimate Christmas fishing guide!
Join the Hi Tide crew—Grant, Alan, and Kieran—for a massive festive edition of Australia’s favorite fishing show. As we head into the heat of the Christmas break, we’ve got everything you need to make your time on the water safe, successful, and stress-free.
On this week's show:
- The Christmas Fishing Forecast: We break down what’s biting from the Northern Beaches to the South Coast. Get the latest on the Snapper run, the Marlin moving into the 36-fathom line, and where to find the best Flathead and Whiting for your Christmas table.
- Safety First: With the boat ramps about to get "chock-a-block," we talk to the experts about staying cool under pressure. From the "Plan B" weather strategy to life jacket safety and how to actually get back into your boat if you fall overboard, this segment is a must-listen for every skipper.
- Tech Tip – The Art of Anchoring: Alan Blake from Blake’s Marine joins us to discuss why your anchor setup is your most important insurance policy. Learn about chain lengths, choosing the right anchor for the ground, and how to use "Anchor Alarms" so you can sleep like a log while overnighting.
- Local Legends: We check in with Paul Burt (who catches a fish live on air!), Matt from Salamander Bait and Tackle, and Ross O’Brien from the South Coast for their local "hot spots" and holiday advice.
- Christmas Treats: Paul Burt shares a legendary recipe for syrupy Christmas cherries that definitely isn't "lean burn technology."
Whether you're chasing Meter-plus Cod in the Murrumbidgee or Trolling for Dolphin Fish offshore, Hi Tide is your passenger seat companion this Saturday morning.
Cast a line with us and make it a cracker of a Christmas!
