It's pretty simple mate head outside the reef (weather permitting) and cast at the reef break. Should definitely pick up some GT's along with red bass, coral trout, gropers, jobfish etc.. If it's too rough you can also get nice fish inside the lagoon. Don't be afraid to go out of your way and head a bit south to fish areas that are less frequented.

I think one of the mistakes my mates and I have made at exmouth is driving too far from the ramp.
We've made trips to peak, black ledge and most of the other islands up there. No doubt we have caught plenty of fish in the hard to reach places. But usually those days end with the wind coming up a bit and a long uncomfortable ride home.
Then you'll go out the next day and pick up your pb at the entrance to south passage.
My tips for exmouth. Be flexible. Bank on the wind annoying you at some stage. Fish where it will annoy you the least. And be friendly and open your ears with Stevo and Matt at the tackle shops.
