What do you want to know? Fishing, Tourism? I cant say much on fishing as our charter was cancelled on monday due to other parties cancelling at the last minute. I didnt actually witness anyone fishing cable beach, though there were a million 4wds on the southern end towards gantume pt last night but I think that was mainly for the sunset.
Plenty of people fishing off the Broome Wharf this morning and around Reddell Beach, just to the south of cable beach and from all the rocks and beaches into roebuck bay to the town beach, from what I saw while on a sea kayak. Saw plenty of mullet, some unknowns with yellow tails and a black dorsal fin about 2 ft long, and some kind of shark from a distance hammering mullet.
I lived in Broome on and off for 6 years. And spent a bit of time on Cable beach, not to much fishing though. You get blue nosed salmon north of the nudie beach. Mackies about 500m off the beach trolling along a small reef also north of the nudie beach. Alot of gardies at the southern end near the race track and the odd queenie in between, but not a great place to catch fish.
Head to the wharf or a creek out of town or jump on a charter boat.
