Point Peron is a rocky headland at the southern end of Cockburn Sound where reef and rock platform give land-based anglers access to genuine structure fishing. The wash zone over the rocks creates ambush points, and the deeper water offshore means bigger fish push in closer to the shore than at most metro beach spots.

Fish the wash zone where white water meets cleaner water — cast metals into the turbulent wash and retrieve through the transition zone. For herring and tailor, work the rock edges at dawn and dusk. Silver trevally and wrasse take soft plastics bounced along the reef. Berley helps concentrate fish around your section of the platform.

Herring (reliable off the rocks), tailor (dawn and dusk in the wash), silver trevally (soft plastics over reef), Australian salmon (Mar–Jun, aggressive in the white water), and occasional wrasse and skippy.

The rock platforms are uneven and can be slippery — wear proper rock fishing footwear and never turn your back on the ocean. Swell sets can sweep the lower platforms without warning. Fish from the higher platforms when swell is up. This is not a spot for kids or casual observers near the water's edge.
