Best tide state to fish Point Walter (Swan River)

Incoming tide is the prime window because it floods the flats and pushes bait onto them. Slack tide is slow. Water clarity is generally excellent; reduces in the days after heavy rain when the upper river silts the system. The sandbar shifts seasonally so check wading depth carefully each session.
