Northern Exmouth Gulf to Onslow
Submitted by Roughas on Sat, 2025-05-31 14:58
G'day all. I've spent a fair bit of time in the eastern gulf from Giralia to north to Tent Island. Absolutely love it. I'm now thinking of travelling up that side from Tent Is. to Onslow. Fuel is not an issue. Google Earth shows it as being a bit featureless,; more solid mangroves without the nooks and crannies of the southern part. Has anyone done it that could give me some info? I want to catch fish, but more of the inshore, estuarine species like cod and jack and maybe a muddy or two.
Thanks in advance, John

see if that works.be very careful very shallow the area is not surveyed,the channels run parrarel north from the creeks. stand up high on your boat to see them.
one of the areas id like to get back to,remote id like to stay just inside on the dune,fire with a whisky seeing if i can catch any jacks.

Other than an island full of sea birds, it doesnt really show a lot.
Ningaloo Crew on youtube did a bit of camping on some of those eastern gulf islands and it may give you an idea.
