Yallingup

Hey guys im heading down to Yallingup for 5 days from Friday next week. Only been down that way once before and didn't really get a chance to wet a line. I will have my little 14ft runabout in tow but will also be doing some land based during the stay. Where would you guys recommend for me to try? Also is the artificial reef out of Busselton worth a look?

Appreciate the help

Wouldn't even

consider the west coast with the endless winter we're experiencing this year.

Long range forecast suggest next weekend will remain 15-25kn NW with swells ramaining over 3m.

Be bloody careful if your going to try landbased too. With the constant big swells and raging winds the granite rocks down here get bloody slippery and the ocean can be very unpredicable.

Go into Dunsborough outdoor sports (site sponsor) and have a chat to the lads in there. They'll point you in the right direction.

ps. the new artificial reef is offshore from Dunsborough
