Thanks mate, where is this
Thanks mate, where is this prestigious s bend and Lucy's flat spot? I have done a bit of a Google search and found where the other two are, but for Lucy's flat and s bend there are only websites talking up how good the fishing is. I have looked at other forums on the site and by the sounds of it it is mostly tailor fishing around these locations is there any other species around here that we should be targeting?
Thanks a lot for the advice mate really appreciate it

Sbend is best described as
Sbend is best described as the caravan park, about half way between Dongara and Gero, there's a big "S" in the highway, hence the name, there's quite a few spots out behind here....
Flat at rocks is just before the sbend, there's a road going down to it, funny enough called flat rocks road, when you get to the car park I usually hit the beach and head back south a little.
as for Lucy's, turn into the sbend caravan park from the highway but keep going past it on company road until he end near the rifle club, turn left and keep going in towards the dunes, when you see Lucy (it's a scarecrow thing) I usually go left until the track comes onto the beach... Be aware though, the beach a Lucy's can be a bit (ie REALLY) soft at times
Usually lots of tailor and herring, as well as snook and dart, it's also defiantly worth putting out a bigger bait for mulloway.... Don't be surprised if you pick up quite a few soapies (smaller mulloway) especially at Lucy's... I've had trips there I've pulled soapys in like herring :)

Are you planning on stopping in Dongra, or coming that little bit more up to Geraldton?

I reckon some of the best
I reckon some of the best shorebased fishing in the state along that stretch. I'm planning on a night their when I return form up north next year with my boys. Caught my first ever Mulla at flat rocks and have Dhuies pulled in form there too.
Love the West!
