Fishing esperance??

 Recently moved to kalgoorlie for work and thinking of heading down to esperance for a weekend fishing. Just looking for some general advice as I've never fished there before both land based and boat have a 5 metre cono so anything within reasonable distances.

 

Thanks

I'm an Espy local mate, best

I'm an Espy local mate, best bet is to do a search on here....plenty of good info been posted.

Miles and miles of beaches to explore, grab a map/tidechart from tackle shop in the Boulevard. Grab a 12 foot beach rod and decent spinning reel, find a nice hole/gutter and pitch out a mulie.....heaps of salmon around at the moment. Few gummys and big skips too. Also a lot of big swells and weed washed up so if you come down see if you can time it when it flattens off a bit...good for both beach and boat.

Heaps of whiting and squid in the bay to get you started.

PM me if you want any more info...happy to help.

I was also in Kal last week and managed to make it down to Espy for a couple days work and managed to wet a line. Went out of the beach about 15km past Bandy Creek and found a gutter we got a dozen salmon easily. Great place esperance.
