Submitted by Bakes007 on Wed, 2014-07-16 15:13
Hey all, im only new to this site and trying to find my way around.. anyway i have booked a 4 day trip to WAGOE in the middle of august and i was wondering if anyone has been there this time of year?????, I know its not ideal but its not often all the boys have the same time off.. I havent been there before just wondering if i could get a bit of a heads up as to what i can expect? we have a couple of prepared fourbys gong up hows the beach to drive on aswell ???
Any advice would be appreciated

Wagoe
Always good to get up there mate no matter what time of year. It's a beautiful stretch..
4x4 wise you shouldnt have any problem if your a reasonable driver and you have you tyres at correct pressure.. North of the wagoe chalets can get a bit boggy but just use common sence and you'll be right..
Fishing wise Mack's might be a little hard but should be plenty of snapper, mulloway, tailor etc. Big bitties after dark if that's your thing also..
Advice: Be careful on the reef as it is oyster covered and cuts you real easy. Kalbarri is 20mins away for stitches !
Look out for whales the come in real close there. In early June this year there was one about 30m of the beach it was pretty cool.
If you surf take a board there's some nice uncrowded waves close by.
Take plenty of beer incase it blows!!!!
Anything else just ask I'm happy to share..
Good luck Belly

Tracks are easy, just soft
Tracks are easy, just soft sand. The 'beach' is actually a reef ledge for most of its length, which can be tricky and/or downright dangerous to fish off if theres a swell up. If you head south, there are a few breaks in the reef where you can cast from sand. These spots are popular though and you might need to get there early if there's other people around. Be careful if you reach the 'lagoon', the beach between it and the sea can be verrry soft. Think you can get around the back of it if you need to (I think there's more 'beach' fishing spots to the south of it).
