Broome

Lots of information about Broome in the search but I reckon this is the best one.  Bit of land based, bit of boat.  Maybe a 4WD might be a better option too.

 4 to 6 kg tackle will do you mate for most places ..head to Willie and Barred creeks, You can fish the creek mouths as well. GTs, Queenies, Maybe mackeral also off the rocks at Barred Creek. Difficult to fish the other creeks landbased successfully due to the big tides. The jetty fires at this time of the year also. Work your jigs very hard under the jetty and you be surprised whats there. Thats where your heavy gear might come in handy I suppose.barra, Mulloway, GTs, mackeral, Queenies ...great time of the year for fishing in broome.good luck
