Crabs are starting to be caught in the shallow waters, with the sandy drop-offs producing some nice big blue manas, the crabs have started moving up the rivers into the lakes.

The Taylor are running stronger than ever they are everywhere, for the beach fishers the silver sands beach is producing some nice choppers for light gear silver or bronze slices seem to work well, if you are after some bigger Taylor try Tims thicket or white hills. The cut Is Firing at the entrance with some nice Taylor being landed around the 40cm mark, and the salmon trout are still chasing the baitfish (lure that mimic baitfish are the way to go) but salmon trout take nearly anything.

The rivers are producing some nice black bream, you might want to try further up the rivers to get away from the blowies and the crabs. the Gorden road bridge is alway a good shot. Bream around 30 - 40 cm are being caught and released. Remember watch out for the algee bloom, dont fish were there is algee bloom, you can get really sick.

Out in the boats the Dhughfish have been in the shallower water, around the five has been producing some nice dhugfish around the 15kg mark (fresh ockey or squid is the way to go , also some nice Queenies have been caught too, Little Tip Fish around the craypots if you don’t have any spots marked, around the pots seem to produce some nice fish. a few reef and hammer head sharks have been caught.

For the speroes at night the cobler don’t seem to be running to good this year, a few smaller cobler (20cm to small) hanging around the marina, but the best bet is the Mandurah forshaw in-between the 2 bridges. Plenty Of ockeys along the rockwalls.

Squid are in good numbers in the bay in shallow water of the weedy ground, also some nice kg and whiting. burlying up will almost guaranty a nice feed of herring and maybe even some nice Taylor.
