Where to go fishing near Carnarvon Town?

• Miabooyla Beach Big mulloway and tailor frequent the beach and the key to success is finding a deeper channel and fishing at dawn and dusk. Two wheel drive access however a four wheel drives can accesss the beach and drive north for kilometers in search of the best channels. Mulloway and Tailor can be caught all along this beach.
• One Tree Point A good spot to explore for Mangrove Jack and Flathead. The small creeks have some good structure for cast small to medium hard body lures. Summer is the best time to target Mangrove Jack and flathead will be most active during spring
• Gascoyne River Breakwalls The breakwalls can be access land based from Babbage Island Road. Target Dusky Flathead, Bream and the odd Mangrove Jack.
• Gascoyne River Mouth Flathead, Whiting, Tailor, Trevally and the odd Mangrove Jack. Trolling is a good way to find Flathead. Any structure like timbers will also hold fish. The timber breakwalls and Whitmore Island are good places to get started targeting fish. The breakwalls can be access land based from Babbage Island Road.
• Carnarvon Jetty Mulloway caught all year round from the Canarvon Jetty. Tailor, Trevally and the odd Threadfin Salmon are also caught here. Best fished at dawn, dusk and night. If the water is clear enough big soft plastics work on Mulloway, soft and hard vibes are also affective. Metal slugs for tailor.
• South Carnarvon Bream, Whiting and Flathead from the shore of the small creek that leads to the marina.
• Massey Bay A shallow bay with many small inlets that hold some great fish. The shallow inlets can only be accessed on high tide and it is easy to get stranded and stuck for hours if the tides are judged wrong. The inlets hold Mangrove Jack, Bream, Cod, Flathead and Whiting
• Gascoyne Flats Abundant with sea life, the flats fish well for Whiting, Bream and Flathead. Fishing here is by boat only as access to these spots are difficult land based.
• Bush Bay Deep Channels The deep channels have Cod, Bream, Pink Snapper and small Mackerel.
• Bush Bay inlets Small inlets along the Bush Bay coast line fish well on an outgoing tide for Bream and Dusky Flathead. Mangrove Jack and Bream also hide out in the deeper holes on low tide. Land based access is possible.
