I am going on a beach fishing trip soon from Geelong Vic. Heading to Esperence W.A. Yellata has been high on my list for a long time. (I'm chaseing Jeweys, and have been a bit obsessed with mulloway for some years now) Has anyone fished there?? Can i park and camp on the beach?? Is there a service station and Tackle shop/bait anywhere in the area? My 110 is set up to stay off the map for weeks but i would love a bit of advice from someone who knows the area. I can generally catch live bait for myself and always carry a fridge/freezer if i need to use bought bait. But i've been to a few spots in the past that have anhilated tackle supplys with bust offs and no sinkers/bait ect to be bought nearby.

When I last went through a year ago the Yalata roadhouse was shut, and in any case I would go fully equipped and not expect to be able to buy anything except fuel at the other isolated servos.

If heading west, the last spot to buy any gear would probably be Ceduna.

All the Nullabor is a marvellous place to spend some time and there are many other beaches besides Yalata (note spelling for best search results) :)

As you are writing about fishing from beaches hopefully your tackle loss won't be too severe.

BTW, I found this site a good starting point for researching a trip:
