Best tide state to fish Port Hedland (Spoilbank Marina / Cooke Point / tidal creeks)

Tides run to six metres or more on the springs and drive the entire fishery — the run-in and run-out are the windows, and slack water is slow. South-west trade winds blow most afternoons through the dry season, so morning sessions are the working hours. Cyclone season runs November to April with real storm risk and creek-flooding barramundi pulses on either side of it. Water colours up in the build-up and after a blow. The shipping channel and tug traffic sit right beside the recreational water, so visibility and courtesy both matter.
