About This Spot
Local knowledge & spot details
Sheepwash Road Boat Ramp in Barwon Heads, VIC, offers a fantastic estuary fishing experience, perfect for both bank anglers and those using small boats or kayaks. The area is renowned for its diverse species, including Bream, Mullet, Silver Trevally, Australian Salmon, Flathead, and the elusive Mulloway.
