Trout and Reds in Shark Bay?
Submitted by Sea Hunter on Sun, 2013-07-07 07:09
On the yearly boys trip we normally get plenty of Mack's and Spanglies as well as our Snapper limits, but this year I wanted to target Red Emporer and Coral Trout.
Any advice or even cordinates would be great.

Inside
You will find trout on most of the reefs fringeing the inside of Dirk Hartog, Dorre and Bernier islands.
While its not impossible to catch reds inside it is not too common as most are caught outside in deeper waters.

reds and trout
we have caught lots of undersize trout around turtle bay , but never any on the dampier reef. Reds on the west side of Dirk Harhog in deeper water on flat coral bottom, big hooks and fillets of red throat.
