I’m planning a trip out to Refuge Cove to camp for a few nights. Plan to some fishing during the day and I’m trying to work out the best locations. It is really hard to get a clear answer on the marine park boundaries and the fishing rules around there but from what I can see the Marine Park hugs the coastline on that side so as long as you go a little bit offshore you should be fine.
Few questions I was hoping you can help with?
- What is the best wind/swell conditions to go from Port Welshpool to Refuge? What would be considered “No go” in a Evolution 600
- Can you get squid and whiting in Refuge and is that allowed?
- Is it worth a trip out to Seal Islands and Cliffy for some bigger fish like Kings?
- On the charts i have noticed a huge wall called Cape Wellington that seems to drop from 15m-60m very quickly. Anyone fished this? Fees like it could be a good spot and is close to Refuge
