Elecmuso 77 Posted October 31, 2020 Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 I'm going to do a camping trip with my son in December or Jan and was thinking Hillocks Drive. Is there much to be had at Hillocks / Butlers beach in the summer months? Are there other Yorks spots likely to have success on the fishing side of things? I gather not the best time of year for Salmon. Any other locations recommended for a camping/fishing trip that time of year? West coast is probably a bit far, but still on the radar. doobie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hunter69 1,463 Posted October 31, 2020 Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 Personally, i'd like to have a camp around Parsons, some crazy landbase reef systems there that would keep you entertained all day. Foul Bay, Stomper kgw are caught off the beach during summer time. Even Cray by snorkel You could fish the surf beach's around Inne's for Mullys and shark. Ardossan has a couple areas you can camp, Rake crabs, squid off the jetty, go floundering at night time on the flats. Spoilt for choices. doobie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mrfish 327 Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 Anywhere on the bottom of yorkes is potentially good. Stenhouse bay jetty would be a great place to start, you could camp at marion bay and explore the bottom end . Dont rule out salmon in summmer either, Have seen massive schools on yorke peninsula in January before. If no salmon then should be tommie, squid, mullet etc to keep you occupied. doobie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wert 470 Posted November 2, 2020 Report Share Posted November 2, 2020 Lower yorkes has options galore per above. Best of all you can always find a spot with the wind at your back and so many great pubs if you want a hot feed and cold drink or to escape the heat. doobie 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
