Broome Catches

The local charter operators have been putting clients onto good catches of saddletail seaperch, blue lined emperor and coral trout beyond the 30m contour. Sailfish are still being found wide of Barred Creek together with a few small black marlin while spanish mackerel have been encountered off Gantheaume Point and Entrance Point.
Threadfin salmon to a metre and the odd bigger fish have been responding to lures and baits within Roebuck Bay. Shore-based fishers have been picking up bluenose salmon, queenfish and assortments of trevally along Roebuck and Cable Beach. Barramundi are being caught in better numbers in the local creeks during the neap tide periods. Langis Crossing seems to be among the more productive areas of the Fitzroy River for barra at the moment.
