| FISHING |
| Beautiful Bremer beaches are a great place to relax and catch the big one. |
| Hook up a Western Australian Salmon. |
| Fishing from Reef Beach 4WD access only. Get there by driving down Warramurrup Road. |
| When catching and keeping Salmon always remove the head and guts straight away to maintain the freshness of the flesh. |
| A safe place for the children to fish from is our Boat Mariner or locally known as the Jetty.Lots of little fish and in the evening Squid. |
| Watch out for our local Seal who hangs around the Jetty and steals the fish, he is very entertaining. |
| Salmon size limit is 30cm as well as Breaksea Cod (blackarse) Fingermark Bream Flathead Sweetlip Yellowfin Bream Red Snapper Tailor(only 2 fish over 60cm) |
| 25 cm is the size limit for Black Bream, Leatherjacket, Skippy(Trevally),Tarwhine & Sooty Grunter. 28 cm is the size limit for North-west Snapper & King George Whiting. 40 cm for Baldchin Groper & Estuary Cod. 42 cm for Cobbler, Snapper Red Emporer, Spangled Emporer & Coral Trout. 50 cm for Blue Groper, Mackerel, Mulloway, WA Dhufish & Mahi mahi. 60 cm for Samson fish & Yellowtail King fish. |
| The bait used here is up to you but the most common is Pilchards(Mulies), Squid, Octopus and Mullet. If you are fishing in the Wellstead Estuary(Bremer River) then river prawns and blue bait seem to be the best. You can get your bait from the General Store,Roadhouse or Elders Hardware Store. |
| Try Squidding at dusk from the Jetty or off Little Boat Harbour rocks. |
| Fishing from Back Beach. Very soft sand. Definite 4WD only. |
| Herring are plentiful |
| Fishing from Reef Beach during the Salmon run is always rewarding. |
| Skippy are a great tasting fish and very feisty when hooked. |
| Deep Sea fishing is a great way to spend your day. Bring your boat and have some fun. Dhu fish can be caught as well as Nannygai, Samson, Pink Snapper,Queenies, Trevally and the occasional Groper. |
| Nannygai is great to eat |
| Fishing in The Estuary will see you attract Black Bream, Mullet, King George Whiting & Cobbler. |
