Rottnest Advice

Hi Guys,

Hoping to take the kids over to Rotto on Monday the 13th for an overnighter on the boat. I have never fished the area I wondering if anybody can offer some advise on recent catches over there. Thanks in advance.

fishing in close is fun in the wash around reef up towards the western end. But be cautious of swell. Always have a big outfit ready for a sambo or king. Demersals you will have to venture past the 25 m line and really work you sounder and move lots but you will find fish on both the north and south sides. Rotto gets a fair bit of fishing pressure so make sure you gear is good and baits are fresh to temp what ever you can
