[EASTERN SUBURBS] Browns Rock (La Perouse)

[bennoz]

Location:Browns Rock

This a safe water fishing spot being fairly high up from the water and also having the protection of henrys’ head toward the mouth of the bay, the only thing with this spot is it’s fairly open to wind, having access to fairly deep water with a broken rocky sand floor it’s a great place to try for a range of fish with either bottom bashing or float fishing being the standout options, access to browns rock is along the henry’s head walking track (although there is a sign pointing browns rock out) you can park inside the golf course there and make your way down. Rubbish seems to be a large problem here even though there is a bin provided. Species to target would be kingfish, salmon bonito, bream and flathead.

Best fished in a wind with an esterly or nor easterly aspect it is hard to fish wit ha southerly and do not fish it in a big southerly swell ebven though it is high up it can still get quite wet and a slip could prove fatal, access is good and ther eis a short walk from the bus terminal.

BE AWARE it gets crowded so get there early or look for an alternate spot
