Fishing limits search

Recreational fishers must comply with the daily fishing limits for marine and freshwater species caught in South Australian waters.

All limits apply for a 24-hour period from midnight to midnight. Once you have caught the limit for a species, you are not allowed to take any more.

Use the search function below to select different species and see their daily fishing limits.

Any species that is not listed in the search does not have size or bag limit restrictions in SA – take only what you need for personal use.

For more information, check the explanations for size, bag and boat limits, including how to request a measuring device. Limits may vary for charter boat fishing.
