Hi Everyone,

In all my fishing experiences around this country and overseas, I have never been to somewhere as amazing as Shark Bay, just up from Geraldton and approximately midway in Western Australia itself.

The place which really left me speechless was a place the locals call Borals Bar.

To get to Borals Bar you will need to get a boat from Denham and go towards the salt mine operation, on the other side of the bay.

Borals Bar, from what I was told by a mine official, is where the seawater is collected, fed into the primary ponds going into the salt farm eventually extracting salt.

Now because it is a mine area you are not allowed on the gangways or water gate bridge, however you are allowed general access to Borals Bar itself, as long as you stay in your boat and fish from your boat (and don't walk around shore).

Fishing as close to the gangway at Borals Bar as possible without disturbing the mine, I have to say I have never nor caught as many snapper as I did that day.
On average I was hooking Pink Snapper at least every 1-2 mins( The locals call them 'stinky pinkies', as they get sick of catching them all the time).

There is also an abundance of Mulloway, Wrasse, Bream, Mackerel, Queen fish, Tailor and Shark.

I can't recommend this fishing area highly enough,I just wish I had allocated more time in my trip to this place!

I can only liken the place to fishing in a fish farm where you are guaranteed a fish strike and would rate it a A+++.

Good fishing and there is plenty of tackle supply stores in Denham who can show you Borals Bar on a local map if you get lost!
