Best tide state to fish Point Samson (Honeymoon Cove / Public Wharf / Cossack)
Tides run 4–5m on the springs and shape the entire reef and creek fishery — the bottom of the run-out is when the creek bait stacks and the change of tide is when the reef pelagics feed. Trade winds from the south-west blow most dry-season afternoons; morning launches before 10am are the working window. Cyclone season runs November to April with serious storm potential and the road south can shut for days after a system. Water clarity on the reef is good in winter and drops in the build-up. The harbour shipping movements are limited but the channel still applies.
