Best Tide State to Fish Middleton Beach (Albany)

East-facing into King George Sound, which shelters it from the prevailing southerly and south-westerly swell that batters the open coast — this is the beach that stays fishable when Salmon Holes and the south coast are out. Strong easterlies are the condition that spoils it. Clarity is generally good. The salmon run in autumn is the event that dictates the calendar, and the schools work close to the sand when they arrive. Low light at either end of the day fishes best across all species, and the jetty lights extend the evening well past dark.

What Anglers Target Here

Anglers fishing Middleton Beach (Albany) typically time sessions around the tide for australian salmon, australian herring, king george whiting, skipjack trevally (skippy), and southern calamari (squid).
