Woody Island

Woody Island, located just off the coast of Esperance in WA, offers an exceptional offshore fishing experience. This picturesque spot, accessible by boat or shore, features a stunning bay shoreline that attracts a variety of species. Anglers can expect to reel in Herring, Skippy, Squid, King George Whiting, and even the formidable Samson Fish or Australian Salmon. The prime times for fishing here are at dawn and dusk, particularly during a moving tide when the fish are more active. With low swell conditions, the waters are generally more inviting, but it's essential to check local wind, swell, and current conditions before heading out to ensure a safe outing. Whether you prefer bait fishing or lure fishing, Woody Island presents a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the diverse marine life of the region.
