Would like to get up there for the mulloway run. Back in the day 3 of us pulled 12 mulloway countless black bream from the river in 3 days. Smallest mulloway was about 5kg, Biggest was about 10kg.

Flood watch
There is a flood watch in progress for the Murchison river through the gorges with lots of tracks closed due to flash flooding as the peak moves down stream. All the main raods are not affected.

Was at Kalbarri yesterday
and the chocholate brown Murchison is s sight, that's for sure. There is a brown cloud that stretches probably for about 3 mile off shore. The water coming down the Murchison is still moving at a fair pace.

Have been in Kalbarri prob
Have been in Kalbarri prob 3-4 weeks after a cyclone going through, same scenario with dirty water going for miles out.
Made for good fishing along the line of dirty & clean border.
The clear water just started to push it's way up past Chinamans when we were there and some good Mulloway were caught!! (-;
