Safe spot to fish with kids
Gday fellas. Got a 5 and a 3 year old just itching to commission their new kids combos they got from Santa. Any suggestions for a safe spot around Darwin or surrounds? Just somewhere I can teach them the basics in relatively safe surrounds. Cheers.

In the tackle stores there is a land based guide book that costs $2. I'm sure if you get that and have a bit of a drive around one arvo you can find a few. I'd also try and fish small tides to make it easier for them and you

The beach at East pt near the BBQ area is not to bad for the kids
Fish the near the first set of mangrove trees about 3hrs after the
low should see enough water there . If the kids get bored take em
over the road to the lake area for a swim to cool down .
Just Don't let them go into water at the beach side I seen a lot
of stingers down there last week end . Most of the beach spots around
will have stingers this time of year ,, TAKE vinegar just in case.

Cheers lads. Might give east point a go, Stokes Hill would be too stressful.
