Best Tide State to Fish Kent Street Weir (Canning River)

The weir controls the salt/fresh line — hydraulic lay-flat gates, which replaced the old removable timber boards in 2017, hold fresh water pooled above through summer, then lay flat to flush the system before the winter rains. Below the wall the water stays tidal and estuarine, and the run of the tide across the boundary is when the bream feed hardest. Water clarity in the lower Canning is generally good and drops in the days after heavy rain or a winter flush. A fishway built into the weir lets fish move past when the gates are up, which keeps the estuary side stocked. Slack water is slow; fish the tide change.
