Seascapes beach
Recently moved into a house near Seascapes beach (Near the IGA), been fishing the beach a bit, found a few small Mulloway there. Pretty small, maybe around the 30 - 40 cm range (Returned to the water, obviously), just wondering if it's normal for smaller ones and bigger ones to be in the same place at the same time? Sounds like a stupid question maybe, but I grew up fishing for flathead in the eastern states and found that where you catch small flatties you never find big ones.
Also, it's pretty weedy around there, even short casting into the sandy gutters I seem to find an awful lot of weed, which makes life a lot harder. Anyone got any good tips for minimising the lumps of weed brought into the shore? About the only way of avoiding the weed seems to be fishing unweighted mulies, but the wind doesn't always allow it...

Go for a walk North from
Go for a walk North from where you are and there is plenty of sections off beach to fish. Iv heard of good mulloway being taken along the stretch.
Not sure if you can still fish there, but Blue Bay beach used to hold some decent mulloway in summer when the tailor were on.
Further up the beach between blue bay and Roberts point is some good land based fishing for school mulloway, take some polarised sunnies and pick your spots.
Where you catch small mulloway there will be bigger ones. Your a good chance of some gummy Sharks along that stretch as well where you live
Stick to a tide change preferably high , fresh baits, check the moon phases. The mulloway are there mate.
Good luck let me know how you go
