We are going to Kalumburu in May without a boat. Any suggestions on the type of fishing gear should we take? Thanks from povertypack

Hi There...speak to Les French - who runs Honeymoon Bay on ph 08 9161 4378.
Les has a 5m tinnie and can take you out to a reef. You'll be glad you did. We did so last September and it was awesome. 50-60lb leaders, braid line, and an assortmet or lures for trolling; or decent sized hooks for live-bait. Cheers.

Yep, I'll back that call, Les and his family are pretty good to deal with, and his fees are negotiable......be wary of a few of the young guides out there, they have amazing negotiating skills LOL. Last year, they negotiated a fee of $20.00 each for 3 of them to take a couple of blokes crabbing in 'Úncle Les's' boat. Uncle Les wouldn't lend the kids the boat, so they charged $20.00 each to travel in the clients boat and fuel - no a bad way to score a free boat ride!

Cheers ANdrew

Nice oysters to be had on a short walk around to the left at Honeymoon beach.
