seeing as you are geared up for smaller fish denmark and walpole inlets fish well for black bream and other species, soft placcies work a treat.  Beach fishing is pretty good around esperance maybe get some longer rods while you are there

gday mate, do you have a 4wd , do you know how to drive on soft sand tracks and beachs, letting tyres out etc

if so esp to albany has many many good beach fishing spots. Get yourself a good map , and you will see most of the

little tracks headn south from the main hway lead to a beach somewhere. Be aware if its during the week , not many people

go to these spots , so your on your own, make sure you know what your doing. Find yourself a gutter( deep channel)

and fish just before high tide.There could be salmon , skippy herring etc. large gear not always needed, depending on the

wind and weather

If no 4wd, then all your inlets and town beachs as mentioned already are the way to go.

good luck , maybe a story again latter in the week on how you went, will get you some more advise.

and as there are alot of old perverts on the site, haha maybe a pic of the missus holding a fish!

Welcome Kiwitrout

If you ever get as far north as Port Hedland, drop me a line. Salmon season is in full swing up here.

unfortunately you are in the middle of some pretty shitty weather. You are however heading through some beautiful country down in the South and south west. As Rig has suggested Walpole and Denmark have some great options for small gear. If you are heading inland a bit up toward Pemberton then you have a chance to do some Trout fishing. When you are in Albany I suggest you cruise down to Emu Point for a look. A nice restraunt there and a great place to fish with lite gear. Plenty of options around Albany on the coast and inland.

Good luck with your travels. Keep us posted on results.

G'day Jason, good to see you made it on here mate....you wont find a better bunch of fishos with a greater wealth of knowledge anywhere.

I've sorted him out for Esperance...let us know how you go. Pity the weather is so crap

 Hi, 

I would recomend you get your hands on one of the local fishing guide books, they are full of info on the fish, rigs and locations and cost around $10 - $15 .

Sandgropers guide to better fishing or Phil Stanleys fishing WA are the two currently still in print. However if you pass any second hand book shops have a look for Fishing the Wild West, By Ross Cusack and Mike Roennfeldt. its the best of the small guides and has heaps of great info.

Cheers

Wow thanks woody for putting me onto this. We got a few whiting at Dandy before the weather came through. We are now in Bremer Bay and have purchased a big beach rod and got onto a couple monster salmon. Keep the info coming! I have done a fair bit of beach driving before but at the moment im lacking a compressor to get the tyres back up to pressure so at the moment got to walk from the carpark but i dont mind that.

 Hopefully this weather dies off so we can get more fishing in.

Shaunn66 we will be up there in a month or so i think but ill keep in touch. Looking forward to meeting some members for a fish. Anyway hanging here for a day or so then on to Albany.

Troutkiwi,

Kool no worries. I should be around, somewhere. Im on Westmoore Island from the 2nd July for about a week, then will have another week or so off. Hope to catch up if ur there. Our salmon are bluenose salmon. Very good eating.

 sounds great mate im definitely in. we just arrived in denmark going to try the inlet the hit a beach later for a cast. we are campong at parrys beach i think whats the fishing like there anyone know?

 your best bet for info on where the fish are going off would be to look on here daily. always new reports of fish and where they are at. 

welcome to the site , plenty of info to go around. dont forget to post a few stories and pics along the way.

 Hey troutkiwi,

Just wondering did you manage to stop by Albany to have a few fishing? I am heading down that way next week. So need more info about the beach condition around there at the moment. Thanks

 hi mate the weather was terrible when i was there. we went straight to margaret river. kinda good we got four months for the trip and i wanted to spend 3 of those further north. Thanks Faulkner family ill check the reports. ill keep checking in in case anyone has a hot tip or wants to meet up for a fish. we got onto some pretty big herring here this arvo, was after a tailor though. oh well hopefully tomorrowe

Checked out the reports couldnt find too much on there though, We are going to have another fish in morning at the beach here then are going to start moving towards Perth in the arvo. Got a couple of days up my sleeve, Is there anywhere thats fishing well between Margaret River and Perth?

Hows the fishing going? Where are you at?

 Hi mate when you finish in perth and start heading north Jurien bay is a great little town for a fish. Sandy Cape is a 10 miniute drive from the town and great spot for tailor, Skippy and hering. another one of my favourites is Lucky bay and Kalbarri for your chance for a big tailor
