About Wyndham / Cambridge Gulf (Five Rivers)

Wyndham is the far East Kimberley port at the head of Cambridge Gulf, around 100km north of Kununurra by sealed road and roughly 33 hours of driving from Perth — most anglers fly into Kununurra and hire a 4WD.

Best tide state to fish Wyndham / Cambridge Gulf (Five Rivers)

The fishery runs on a wet/dry cycle, not a tide cycle in the sense of west-coast spots. The dry season (May–October) is the trip window — clear roads, calm conditions, manageable heat and a working barra fishery. The wet (November–April) brings cyclones, road closures, dangerous heat and reduced access. Cambridge Gulf tides run 8–9 metres on the springs and the system fishes hardest two hours either side of the turn — slack water is dead, peak run is unworkable in a small boat. Mid-dry mornings can drop into single digits inland but days run 30–35 degrees. The gulf gets muddy after big tides; bait push concentrates on the cleaner edges.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Wyndham / Cambridge Gulf (Five Rivers) typically time sessions around the tide for barramundi, king threadfin salmon, mangrove jack, black jewfish, and queenfish.
