Shark Bay 1st week in June

Heading up to Shark bay as a family for the first week in June, have hired a 6m runabout for a couple of day (wasn't enough notice to get my old trailer sorted for the trip)

 

Any how heading out with the family for a day out there, but also curious if anyone else will be up there an is interested in coming out for a deeper fishing day as i dont think the family will cope with me out deep, too young to be good deckies :-)

 

Also if anyone has any suggestions about areas to target up there with the family that would be a great help

 

Cheers

I'll be up there at the end on july early august, but try the fault line around steep point cliffs, near monkey rock, burley up at anchor, baldies, pinkies, some monster cod and have a floater out the back, the mackies love the still water around that fault line, also follow the marker bouys when your heading out, its very shallow in the bay itself and if its blowing the beaches are always good for a feed of whiting.

Shark Bay

Mullaruss, check the areas you are allowed to fish in the hire boat. They are only covered by insurance in certain areas. You don't need to travel that far for good fish. You can catch Mackies anywhere from the boat ramp on. Same with Snapper Cobia and Emperor. Bluebone are everywhere through the weed straight out from Denham. Burley burley burley. If you want a good session on Pinkies then Bent Pin on the tide change is dynamite. You'll probably catch a Mullaway or thirty there aswell. Stay safe and don't get to cocky near rocks etc, the bay is beautiful but she bites. Good luck

yep can vouch for the bent pin. or also called the 12 mile pin but its only 10.5nm from the ramp. definately need to be there on the turn of the tide or you just wont get your bait down to the bottom

Thanks for the heads up, wont be going to wild with the family on board...And  unless i can find a deckie when i am up there will be limited to that.

But worst case I'll give Unreal charter a hola and see if they have any spaces.
