New to fishing in Perth
Submitted by dodo on Tue, 2009-07-21 23:46
Hello everybody!
I am new to fishing in Perth and just bought a boat. This will be my first outing in my boat this week-end with the come-back of the sun. Can you guys tell me the best places to go to do some crabbing or trolling? Or even bait fisshing! In fact whichever good fishing plans that you can suggest me please.

Cockburn crabbing???????
Yes Cockburn Sound is good for all the options.... Just don't get caught crabbing in the sound as the ban is still on until further notice.

Thsmkd for this mates! I actually have 16' GLASSCRAFT with a 40 hp and use to launch at Riverton but still can drive it to any jetty around Perth if necessary! So I guess Cockburn will be the good choice for this wknd, thank you!

you should be able
to head out to the 5 fathom and a bit beyond and do some trolling or when you hit the 30 mtr mark look for some ground (doesnt have to be much)and chase the kg's or sand whiting, if you anchor and burley it will bring in the skippy and maybe even something bigger, anything is possable out there
