Best tide state to fish Cervantes (Jetty / Hangover Bay / Thirsty Point)

Off-shore easterly holds the surface clean for the morning window. Strong southerly afternoon sea breezes blow most days through summer. Hangover Bay sits inside a partially sheltered embayment and fishes through more weather than the open beaches. Water clarity is excellent year-round; reduces only in winter storm aftermath.
