Hey guys, heading down to Mandurah next week. Can anyone tell me what's biting down there

My Dad tells me... sandflies, so remember the stingose!

I was down there at easter and the blowies were goin oorrrfff!!!...

People were supposedly catching herring in the cut, but none that I saw!

trumpeters galore in the cut!
great chook food!

The KGW should be making an appearance in the Cut about now, guess I'll know by the number of pensioners hooking up worms at the Jolly Frog jetty when I get down

I got some herring and a couple of BIG bites (salmon or big tailor) here in the middle of the day..



Interesting beach on the north side there, some unusual currents stiring things up.

Cheers EB, I've heard whispers of some salmon running past the mouth, not that I'd know what to do with one to prepare it... I take it you have to bleed them out straight away? Looks like I'll be packing the 12 footer too

Yep, bleed em straight away..

I'm going to be doing a bit of salmon fishing this year, didn't do much last year, but want to add some more to this thread. viewtopic.php?f=48&t=7434

Caught 4 nice bull Herring last night and about 20 undersized bream

Tried for some squid at the old bridge last night to discover people plucking crabs from the surface of the outgoing tide. Gonna get me some of that tonight

With the salmon you have 2 choices. Take a pic of them and put them back where you found them, or give them to someone you don't like and go to the fishmonger and buy some fish to eat.

Hey guys, from memory that North-facing beach in Halls Head is a non-fishing zone/"swimming beach". The reason I know is my parents live there and I always wonder about casting a line, catching a feed, crossing the road and cooking up the fresh fish - much like aquaponics haha
