Cockburn Goyne Help
Submitted by Colin Hay on Wed, 2008-06-11 15:21
I am wondering if anyone who has fished down Cockburn way can help me. I am going on a tour of the Australian Marine Complex next week and I want to tie it in with a fishing expedition to the Cockburn Groyne. You will note in the attached photo that there is a wide wharf just north of the big shed. Just north of that wharf is the start of the Groyne wall. I have read that there is good snapper fishing on the corner of that groyne. Can anyone tell me if the groyne is still accessible to the public? And if so, can you drive your car out there?
Many thank for your help, Colin Hay

Yep went there for a drive with the girlfriends dad last week. Excellent secret spot by me =P , u can just drive up and in, all the shipping stuff is blocked off so u can just drive where the road is open.

Don't know what happened to my pic. Maybe it was too big.

Pic #1
That's pretty weird Col, when I first enter this thread, I see an outline as if your pic is going to display (download), then it dissapears with just a text thumbnail link. That there is a thumbnail would suggest the pic did upload on the server. Maybe it's a problem with displaying the size.

Let me know what you think Boof
I read that the secret is to cast towards the big wharf to the south.
