Episode 134: Terry Magryn, Marion Bay boat ramp Engineer

Send us Fan MailEpisode 134: Terry Magryn, Marion Bay boat ramp EngineerThis week we are joined by Terry Magryn, the main man behind Magryn Engineering who worked on the recent Marion Bay boat ramp. After some negative reports around weed building up on the ramp, it was good to chat with Terry about their role in the project. Terry was able to explain that there are a lot of competing issues with designing a new ramp, with wind, wave and weed as well as financial limits, preferences from the local council and guidelines from the South Australian Boating Facility Advisory Committee all impacting on the design. Terry gave us a much greater understanding of the challenges with this boat ramp and also touched on some of his other projects including the Whyalla Jetty. We also discussed all of the news in SA fishing:No cause was identified for fish deaths at SARDI facility last year. Commercial pipi closure linked to algal bloom.Mt Gambier's Valley Lake set for Murray Cod stocking thanks to Recfish SA funding.Another Yabby Net exchange from Recfish and Green Adelaide. Some big boat brands are sold to other companies. 2 incidents of illegal squid fishing from Wirrina. Our tackle item of the week is the recoil rod leash from Shimano and we also chat about the increase in shark sightings across the state, including some epic footage from SA Angler and Dizzy’s dad spotting a Great White just after we were swimming in and out from his mooring. Plus, all of the latest fishing reports including barrels firing up in the South East of the state, winter whiting warming up, plenty of squid, an unusual whale sighting off the Kingscote Jetty and a wrap up of our own fishing over Easter targeting Crabs and Garfish.
