About This Spot

Local knowledge & spot details

Bush Bay in Carnarvon, WA, offers a serene estuary fishing experience that attracts both novice and seasoned anglers. Set against a backdrop of lush shorelines, this spot is ideal for targeting a variety of species, including whiting, flathead, bream, trevally, mangrove jack, and even mud crabs. Fishing is best during dawn and dusk when the low light conditions enhance activity, particularly with the moving tide. Anglers can fish from the shore or venture out by boat where permitted, but it’s essential to be mindful of tide movement and wind, as these factors can affect water clarity and the behaviour of fish. Whether you prefer bait fishing or lure fishing, Bush Bay provides a rewarding fishing adventure amidst its natural beauty.
