Hi All,
Heading up to Broome for 4 days fishing at the end of the month.
First time there so any advice on charter and land based fishing would be appreciated.
Cheers

Get on either sentosa,
Get on either sentosa, snagabarra or broome gamefishing charters. All good and worked and been on all of them. Landbased get up to willie creek on a rising tide for massive barra, gts, thredies and the like.....but watch for crocks! They are there! The misses can go to the pearl farm while you fish!hehehe. The jetty at roebuck bay at night is one of the best in ausralia for jetty fishing. Garanteed gts, queenies and mungrove jacks after dark. The third green wheelie bin along is the best spot as there is an awsome reef/rock structure there that always produces good fish. Fish heavier than you think and lots of wieght is required to hold bottom as you will find out. Right at the end of the jetty is great for landbased mackies and there big! Spoons, slices and poppers are the go for lures and whitehead jiggs as well work. The beach at town beach near the cafe is also a great spot for thredies on a rising tide cast right hard up against the mangroves for the best luck. North of cabel beach is good for queenies off the beach and i have seen sailfish beleive it or not come within 100m from there as well! Best thing is its a nudie beach as well so if the fish dont bite theres always somrthing to look at! :) Hope this helps.
Keep it tight, reeeeeeel tight!

Agree
Was up there a couple of weeks ago and there were some absolute monster Bluebone caught off the jetty on crabs. Have a look at low tide and you will see the structure Spess mentioned. I have seen people busted off on 200lb handlines on that jetty.
