North Beach Jetty is a short 22-metre fishing jetty that gives access to the reef system running through the Marmion Marine Park coastline. The pylons and nearby reef hold bait year-round, and the jetty's compact size means you're always fishing close to structure. It's a good quick-session spot for the northern suburbs — under-the-radar enough that local regulars protect it.

Drop baits along the pylon line for herring and whiting during the day. The reef nearby means you can also cast metals from the jetty toward the reef edge for tailor at dawn and dusk. Keep rigs light — the water is generally clear and fish are line-shy. Berley helps concentrate herring around the pylons. For squid, work jigs along the weed beds at dusk through spring and summer.

Herring (reliable around the pylons), KGW and sand whiting (over sand near the jetty), tailor (dawn and dusk, reef edges), squid (Aug–Feb on jigs), garfish on calm days, and wrasse around the reef structure. Snook turn up on jigs at first light in summer.

Be respectful of lines and casting room. Some reef areas nearby are in Marmion Marine Park sanctuary zones where fishing is prohibited — check the boundary maps. Don't fillet on the jetty boards; gulls move fast.

Sealed car park at North Beach foreshore reserve immediately behind the jetty. Sealed paths and the jetty itself is sealed and railed — among the more mobility-friendly fishing spots in Perth's northern suburbs. Public toilets, beach showers, cafes and a small grocery store within 200m. No formal lighting on the jetty; head torch helpful for evening sessions. Parking is generally easy outside summer weekends.

West-facing position with the jetty extending into the Marmion Marine Park reef system. Fishes well in most weather short of strong westerlies. Easterly mornings are calmest. Tide changes drive the bream and tailor bite; slack water is slow. Water clarity is excellent in the marine park year-round; reduces only in the days after winter storms. The compact jetty means you're always within casting distance of structure.

Boards can be slippery in heavy dew. Marmion Marine Park sanctuary zones nearby (Boyinaboat Reef, Little Island, Lumps Sanctuary) are no-take — check boundary maps before fishing. Boat traffic is moderate during summer weekends; keep long casts clear of moving vessels. Stingrays cruise the sand around the jetty; watch your feet if you wade. Bluebottles drift in during summer northerlies.

Three small sanctuary zones nearby (Boyinaboat Reef, Little Island, Lumps Sanctuary) are no-take. Check the official DBCA Marmion Marine Park map before fishing — the sanctuary boundaries are marked on water by signage but should be verified before each session.

Yes — sealed and railed jetty, accessible foreshore, public toilets and amenities nearby, and a productive light-tackle fishery. Among the better family fishing spots in Perth's northern suburbs.

Yes — squid hold over the weed beds adjacent to the jetty from August through February. Fish 2.0–3.0 jigs in pink, orange or natural patterns slowly along the weed edges, especially at dusk and into evening.

Less crowded than the major Perth jetties because the structure is compact and reef areas nearby require local knowledge. Quiet enough that local regulars protect it; busy enough that you should respect lines and casting room when others are present.
