Freshwater fishing in WA
Freshwater fishing in WA being somewhat limited you might find people wont give up there spots too quickly. Warren river has always been pretty consistent for redfin for me, have got the odd trout too.
have caught 2 nice trout in the Donnelly but have tried there 3 times. Dwellingup seems to produce nice redfin going by reports (think they were on bait) but i've only caught little ones on lure there.

Hi mate,
I do a fair bit of fresh water fishing myself and love to hit up the redfin.
If in a kayak I would suggest doing the travel to Pemberton. Go along the Heartbreak Trail and there are many places you can launch a Kayak. Than just paddle around casting small bibbed minnows like RMG Scorpians at all the fallen trees. You will almost definitley get redfin. There are plenty of streams like The Lefroy to spin or fly cast for Rainbow trout and the odd brown in Pemberton aswell.
Hope this helps, If you need more info just come in and see us or shoot a PM.
Cheers
