South West recreational fishing region

Locate the Blackwood River mouth within Western Australia's coastal South West reporting area, and check the current rules before planning a trip.

Waters

At the Blackwood’s mouth, start with the water you intend to fish. This coastal map covers the outlet reach; it does not cover a trip along the inland river or tell you which rules apply.

The Blackwood mouth reach helps you locate that final stretch. Before planning a fishing trip, check the current rules for your location, species and method, and seek local advice on access and conditions.

What this region means

The South West is a coastal reporting area used by Western Australia’s fisheries authority for monitoring and assessment. It includes the Blackwood’s short outlet reach, while the inland river lies outside it. A reporting boundary does not establish a fishing-rule boundary.

Waters in this region

The Blackwood River mouth boundary reach is the mapped reach included here. Use it for orientation at the mouth; for a trip upstream, check the rules and access for the stretch you plan to visit.

Rules and access

Check the current WA recreational fishing rules for the exact water, species, method and date before fishing, including local closures and protected areas. Confirm access with the land manager. The map’s outline does not give permission to enter a bank.
