Yes you can drive to it, it is roughly in line with The Blvd (a little north)

You can see the drain here (directly level with Oban Road)

Is a couple of km south of Scarborough. Swanbourne is closer to Cott.

With Regaurds to salmon of cottesloe and citybeach

Being a relative novice at the game would you and your fellow members be able to suggest the best bait mulies; live ;or dair I say lures

Hi Unclue Stu

Personally I take two outfits. One spinning set-up to toss out lures. Halco twistys or Nilsmasters. The other rod I bait up with mulies - or even better if you have a live bait use it. Whiting, herring, are all good.
But a lot of it will really depend on your conditions. A day like today would have been great for tossing out lures and unweighted or very lightly weighted mulies. Come Wednesday or Thursday you will need to set up a pateroster rig and a solid sinker to keep your bait in the gutters.
Give Grant St a try. I reckon if there aren't any salmon near thta reef there should be some decent tailor.
