Where to go fishing near Forrest Beach?

  • Geographe Bay Troll medium diving hard body lures for Bonito and Tailor. Salmon also show up in Autumn however boating anglers are not permitted near them.
  • Vasse Estuary Black Bream throughout the small estuary and creeks around Busselton.
  • Wonnerup Inlet Bream Black Bream and Whiting in the Wonnerup Estuary, small minnows and soft plastics worked slowly. Whiting on small poppers during the warmer months.
  • Wonnerup Estuary Fairly shallow, can fish well for small Black Bream, whiting, Skippy and the odd King George Whiting, expect most fish to be fairly small. The mouth of the estuary fishes well for Mulloway and should be done at night. After heavy rains is generally the best time when fishing for Mulloway around Busselton at the creek mouths.
  • Peppermint Grove Pepperment Grove Beach provides okay fishing for Tailor, Herring Skippy, Whiting and Flathead.
  • Capel River Mainly small Black Bream on small minnows and soft plastics work well, several land based based options for fishing Capel River, it can also be fished from a Kayak or Boat.
  • Busselton Jetty At the end of Jetty anglers can cast metal slugs to target Bonito and the odd Southern Bluefin Tuna, metal slugs are best worked fast through the water. Mulloway show up, best at night, target them on large 10-20mm soft plastics and soft rubber vibe lures, slowly jigged on the bottom. The odd samson fish.
