Best tide state to fish Point Peron
West-facing rocky headland exposed to incoming swell from the SW. Fishes well on the upper rocks in most conditions; the productive low ledges wash out above about 1.5–2m swell. Off-shore easterly holds the surface clean for the morning window. Salmon runs in autumn benefit from cleaner-water easterly weather. The rocks' position at the southern entry to Cockburn Sound creates current and turbulence that fish use as ambush. Water clarity is generally good outside winter storms.
What anglers target here
