Fishing in Shark Bay is Childs Play

We went fishing on Friday in Shark Bay, it was a great day fishing and as can be seen by the photographs Lachlan caught himself a couple of nice black snapper.

Great day had by all, so if you are looking for something to do when you are up in Shark Bay, grab yourself a fishing rod from the Caltex service station and wet a line. Even if you don’t have a boat there are plenty of places that you can safely fish from the shore and some here in Shark bay say the best fish too be caught are all in the shallow water. Good luck.

Little Lagoon Denham Shark Bay

Willie Hannibal — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 01:10:02 +0000

Just five kms from Denham is Little Lagoon. Little Lagoon was once a land-locked birrida (gypsum pan) that was inundated by the sea several thousand years ago.

Little Lagoon

With its shallow crystal clear water it is a popular spot for fishing, swimming, canoeing and kite-boarding, the lagoon has facilities that include shade shelters and barbecues around the lagoon shore. It is an ideal place to chill out and relax.
