Pinnaroo Point is a rocky outcrop with reef breaks a short cast offshore — a proper land-based fishing spot hiding inside a family park with toilets and grass. You get depth straight off the rocks, reef structure to hold bait, and access to the deeper water between Hillarys and Mullaloo without needing a boat. It's one of the best squid spots on the metro coast.

Work the rocky outcrop just north of the main car park — that's where locals fish. Squid jigs in spring and summer, especially early morning or late afternoon into last light. Cast metals across the reef edge for tailor and salmon in autumn. After dark, step up the leader and fish mulie baits or live herring for mulloway. The sandy pockets between reefs also hold whiting on light gear in summer.

Southern calamari (prime — Aug–Feb), tailor and salmon (autumn rock fishing), herring and skippy (year-round bread-and-butter), mulloway (after dark), and sand and yellowfin whiting in the sand pockets through summer.

Rocks get slippery when wet and swell can wash the lower edges — wear grippy shoes and watch sets before you commit to a ledge. The family park behind you means kids, dogs and cyclists on the path; back-cast carefully. Parking's generous but fills fast on summer weekends. If the rocks are blown out, the beach to the north fishes well for herring and salmon.
