FISHING 5 CHOICE FISHING SPOTS TO WET A LINE! Arno 1 Bay SA – a perfect spot along the Eyre Peninsula’s eastern side. Catch squid and King George Whiting from the jetty. Want snapper, then a boat is best in the offshore waters. 2 North Stradbroke Island QLD – the protected waters of Moreton Bay are a perfect breeding ground for bream and whiting. Be wary of the regular dolphins that visit the eastern side – perhaps take a beach rod to Flinders Beach instead. 3 Coffs Harbour NSW – the waters of Coffs Harbour make a great spot to wet a line. Solitary Islands Marine Park is home to a variety of species. Or cruise out to the open waters for a bit of game fishing. 4 Exmouth WA – with the Ningaloo Reef so close to shore, trevally, bream and squid are often caught from the jetty. Grab a zoning map from the tackle shop as some areas a restricted to fishing. 5 Walkerville VIC – this small village is a favourite for many to fish. Launch your boat from the beach, choose a rocky outcrop to cast a line or cast right from the beach. 38
