Best Tide State to Fish Forty Mile Beach (Gnoorea Point / 40 Mile camp)
The run-in is the window: it pushes bait across the flats and along the channels, the slack goes quiet, and a big low leaves the natural ramp a long way from the water — the City warns boaters to allow for the 5-metre tides. The dry season, roughly May to September, is when the camp fills and the weather settles, and the breeze tends to build through the day, so boat trips beyond the point are morning work. From November to April the camp sits in cyclone country — the City closes it ahead of an approaching cyclone and reopens it once the threat has passed, so pack up at the first DFES Advice for this coast — and the heat is a hazard in its own right.
What Anglers Target Here
