Best tide state to fish Horrocks Beach

West-facing exposed coast with a fringing reef breaking up the worst of the swell. The sheltered lagoon inside the reef fishes through most weather; the open beach beyond the reef sets up quickly on a south-westerly blow. Easterly mornings are the calmest window. Afternoon south-westerly seabreeze runs hard most summer days. Autumn brings the Leeuwin current and a rare tropical drop-in. Water clarity inside the reef stays high in calm conditions and drops fast after a blow.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Horrocks Beach typically time sessions around the tide for tailor, mulloway (jewfish), australian herring, skipjack trevally (skippy), and tarwhine.
