Best tide state to fish Cottesloe Groyne
West-facing groynes fully exposed to incoming SW swell. The spot fishes well in swell up to about 1.5–2m; above that the lower rocks wash and the spot becomes unsafe. The afternoon Fremantle Doctor blows directly onshore. Wind off the land, water like glass — until it isn't, and those are the most productive sessions. Salmon runs in autumn coincide with cleaner water and easterly weather; if there's a southerly storm-front, the sand stirs and the bite drops. Water clarity rebounds 2–3 days after a winter storm.
What anglers target here
