Beat the crowds

Mon, 2012-02-06 12:25

I love going south for salmon at easter but it is getting harder to find places without the crowds of other fisho's and campers.

Last year i went to Hopetoun but found myself driving further east to avoid everyone.

I found this great spot with not too many other people camping there. You get all the usual fish including sharks.

Check out the video it shows the beach quite well , then you could google map the location. I'll be back there this easter for sure .

Mason's Bay east of Hopetoun

Mason's Bay east of Hopetoun would be a nice little hideaway, but you need to be early to get a good spot. As for down here or Dunsborough, if you haven't booked a spot already, then you've probly left it too late.

 

Cheers

Great spot that's for sure

I spent time over Xmas down there. My Brother comes down from Kal and has a camper. We were lucky to get a spot but you have to be quick. Those who go there generally are well set up and stay for some time.

Wind was a problem while we were there and from all reports, it's a good place to stay away from in inclement weather. Other than that, it's just a beautiful spot with great fishing on offer in the right conditions. Not too far from the pub if you run out of beer
