Spearfishing Perth

Where exactly in Perth local waters can you spearfish? Cockburn Sound? Is there a site that has a map clearly showing where you can and cant spearfish?

Pretty sure you need to go to the DEC site. I know that past the causeway there is a marine park (shoalwater?), but no idea what restrictions there are to the North.

Think there is no spear fishing in any reserve up to 800meters off the beach.

not allowed at the following places, trigg to burns beach, cottesloe marine park, shoalwater marine park..

you are allowed to go 1800m off shore in these places to spearfish however.

this is no good to me as i usually rockhop in search of skippy etc.
