plenty of options and they scored well on the inshore reefs particularly. Anthing from Pinkies, Queenies, Blackarse, Skippy, Salmon and Sambo's etc.

Did well on SP and particularly fishing from thier small boat around the deep washes along the headlands. good light gear sportfishing. Easy beach launching options for small boats.

should be XXsalmon from teh beaches, not the little buggers you get over there....(old days fishing Warrnambool, kilarney, Wolamai etc)

wouldn't miss Cape Arid NP east of Esperance (we will be there over Easter)

Haven't been there for a few years but most of the beaches hold fish. recommend going to a couple of place little boat harbour for a few bread and butter spieces (good shallow water diving there as well very sheltered). Short beach after dark can turn up a multitude of spieces of the beach one memorable catch was a yellow tail kingy of about 50kgs there, salmon should be there. if you have a 4x4 then a few other places to go would be Dylan bay and Reef beach or Fosters ( may haave to hook up with a local for the last to as access os threw a farm). still some of the most beautiful beaches you will ever see there too mate, pure white sand.

any questions pm me.

shore based:
herring (tommy rough)
salmon above 6kgs (somtimes normal)
whiting sands and kg's
taylor
pink snapper of the rocks (be careful of waves)
samsonfish of the rocks

boating:
haliquin
red snapper
queen snapper
dhu fish (if your lucky)
pinky's
samson's
sharks
black ass
groper
harpuka if you go out to the shelf

there is probable more but these arethe most common from experience
flat head

hey, with that choice of species we`ll be lucky to get to Capel, it sounds great! limited to 2 WD ( commutor bus) & no boat, but look forward to fishin the beaches. What do the KGs go for?

I`d rather be fishin`!!!

fresh squid will work atreat just any where around fisheries beach or little boat harbour will get you squid. anything out that way is 2wd changed from when it use to take hours of fun get there. hope you have a great time.
