if you plan on fishing there
if you plan on fishing there you will need to get there alot earlier than that as there will be about 100 people lined up at the beach fishing. you should get some small tailor around there and also some undesired species like rays ect.
i went last week at 5 and had idiot casting their lines over mine, it seems that it is becoming more and more populare.
i am a mad keen fisher who will go fishing rain hail or shine
send us a message if you want to catch up for a cast

Yep a stinking hot day with easterlies in the evening is a recipe for a packed Floreat Drain. Instead of parking at the carpark near the drain try a couple further north along the same slip road. Should be less crowded and the fishing's as good IMO.

everytime i seem to go it
everytime i seem to go it always packed right up to observation city pretty much :)
if you want a good tailor session where it isnt so packe try at swanbourne reef, just be prepared cause you may get some old guys walk up to you swinging around their dicks!
so just be prepared as its on the edge of a nudist beach ( probably the reason why its not so crowded)

An amazing night, I really didn't care f I didn't catch fish, fishing on a school night in magical conditions is a dream come true. The massive surface strike made it even more awesome.
