Exmouth Land based
Submitted by Colesy on Tue, 2010-04-20 12:13
hey heading up to exmouth for the first time end of may :), anyway im hoping to catch a spangled off the beach ive been searching the forums and have come up with some useful info such as fishing the rising tide and dawn and dusk. i was just wondering where will i have the best chance of landing one of these? should i be fishing the west side? will i find then over the large shallow sand flats or over the reef and is it worth having a small berley bucket out or will i just attract every noah within a 10 mile radius? ive downloaded the necessary brochures on bag limits and sanctuary zones. anyway any help would be much appreciated hopefully when i get back ill be able to upload a piccy of my first spangled

bait fishing for spanglies
Places like jacobz acsess on the west side are good around exxy, Ive had the best luck casting between the two lumps off reef use a big lump of squid and about a size 8 ball sinker for casting distance.
Just one more cast
