Best Tide State to Fish Peaceful Bay
The bay faces west behind a headland, which makes it markedly more sheltered than anything either side and is the whole reason the settlement, the netters and the small-boat launchers are here. Prevailing south-westerly swell and wind are partly blocked, and it is a strong easterly or a big southerly swell wrapping the headland that shuts the place down. The open beaches out toward Rame Head, Soft Beach and Gropher Bay, and the platforms running west to Conspicuous Cliff, take the full Southern Ocean and blow out first. Irwin Inlet is the all-weather fallback and fishes on light tackle regardless of what the coast is doing. Mornings run lighter on wind and are the recommended session. This is a micro-tidal, largely diurnal coast, and swell and wind direction settle the day well ahead of tide height.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Peaceful Bay typically time sessions around the tide for australian salmon, australian herring, tailor, mulloway (jewfish), and black bream.
