Best tide state to fish North Mole (Fremantle)

The mole runs roughly NW–SE, so the ocean side faces SW swell head-on and washes out quickly when the swell pushes past about 2m. The harbour side stays fishable in almost any wind because the wall blocks the prevailing afternoon seabreeze. Tide changes are when bait gets pushed along the wall — the run-out into dusk is the classic window for tailor and mulloway. Water can colour up after a winter storm and the squid bite drops away when it does.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing North Mole (Fremantle) typically time sessions around the tide for tailor, australian salmon, australian herring, skipjack trevally (skippy), and mulloway (jewfish).
