Yeagarup pronounciation

 Silly question guys but how do you pronounce Yeagarup (as in the one down south WA)

 

I have heard

You - garup

yay - garup

yee - garup

 

Any locals able to shed light on this? It's doing my head in how many different names people call it

Everyone I go fishing wish pro-nounce it  "YEA-GERUPS" after the sand dunes in the area and yes there is certainly a lot of salmon down there at the moment and a good size as well.

Always been Yee for as long as I can remember or as the old man and his rellies from Pemberton called the area "Warren"after the mouth of the river.
