Could I please have some help with fishing in Onslow
Submitted by bluemino55 on Mon, 2014-01-06 16:14
I have just moved to Onslow for work and would like some help or advice to where to go fishing. I have a 6m Polycraft and 200litres of fuel so have a decent range I can travel. Any help would be great, I am currently thinking about getting a tinnie as well as there seams to be endless options with all the creeks about. As you most probably know fuel in town is $2.15 and would like a couple of starting points and from there I will find my own spots.
I m also keen to chase a mulloway either from the boat or from the shore, just need a starting point on where they are.

Despite the $2.15 per litre
Despite the $2.15 per litre issue, if you have moved to onslow, can read a chart and know how to bait a hook, your set. Best easy fishing in WA. Good luck, you won't need it!

it's not hard to find fish
it's not hard to find fish out off Onslow mate, i've had good sessions in 13m off the back of Thevenard and got a shitload of big blue lined emps and coral trout. sharks are thick around Rosily Cay, some great light tackle around Airlie Island and well macks, bills and deeper reef species off the shelf. Shame you have to travel a fair way to fish it all at $2.15 a litre, i'll fill up before i get down there next for sure!
