The turn off is just before you get to Jurien Bay.
It's technically a no camping spot, but as long as you have a line in the water you're fishing not camping. Just don't make a mess or start a fire or anything like that.
When I was there we parked up near a gutter and got tailor and herring in the afternoon/early evening. Then later on in the night caught a couple of small sharks and some big stingrays.
I haven't tried fishing in the river, but you might be able to find some bream in there.
It's a nice spot, but might be windy there this weekend. Although it's going to be pretty windy wherever you go.

Yeah Hill River
Been catching some nice tailor (40cm+) and hooked a good shark last week on a talior live bait.
I've spent half my life fishing.. The other half I have wasted..
