trigg or city beach have been good for tailor in the past for me but i started rock fishing instead so havnt been there in some time.  cant beat mulies for tailor with a star sinker on the bottom and gang hooks 700mm up.   not an expert but i have seen 3 15kg mullaway pulled up of city beahc on that rig and i cought a salmon.  mind you it was 30 knot n/w winds. good luck!

THE TAILOR HOLES TOWN OF CAMBRIDGE BEACHES
Park adjacent to Hale Road and walk across West Coast Highway to the beach using the marked tracks.Walk north 200 metres to the Tailor Holes. This is an excellent all year round spot for tailor, herring, garfish and mulloway. The beach formations are changing regularly in this area.The many holes and gutters provide excellent angling.
FLOREAT BEACH
Park in one of the many convenient car parks in the area and follow the tracks to the beach and some great fishing.
FLOREAT DRAIN
This is one of Perth’s most popular fishing spots. Park in Car Park 314 and follow the marked path across to the beach. Produces a lot of tailor, herring and garfish. Occasional mulloway and skippy are also caught along this stretch.
FLOREAT (NORTHERN)GROYNE
This spot fishes better during the evening for tailor, whiting and herring. Larger specimens of herring and tailor, as well as mulloway
and salmon, can be caught during the winter months.
Check the signs for angling access to this groyne. It is shared with surfers chasing waves. When anglers are not able to fish from this groyne they can relocate to the southern groyne at City Beach.

but I can suggest you try places like Grant St at Cottesloe if that is not too far for you. There should be some good tailor showing up there soon.

Westaus you can be lucky and catch one straight away

but it normally takes a lot of time and effort and a lot of patience.

Some of the young guns on here did very well last year when we had a junior anglers comp and landed a couple of great mulloway, but they put the effort in to get those results.

So read up on the what gear and bait works best, ask around for what are the best spots to try and have a go.

You will always remember the time when you catch your first decent Mulloway
