Best tide state to fish Tranby Jetty (Maylands, Swan River)

Middle-Swan water — brackish, tannin-stained for weeks after winter rain and clearing through the warm months. Tidal movement this far upstream is subdued but still enough to move fish onto and off the bank, which makes the changes worth planning around. The bank faces roughly east across to Kuljak Island and the Ascot side, so winter easterlies blow straight into it while the summer afternoon seabreeze arrives over your shoulder off the peninsula — a rare Perth bank that fishes better on a hot afternoon than a cold morning. Heavy winter flows from upstream push cold fresh water through the reach and shut the bream down for days at a time.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Tranby Jetty (Maylands, Swan River) typically time sessions around the tide for black bream, flathead, mulloway (jewfish), cobbler, and tarwhine.
