Tide times at Belmont Foreshore & Wharf
Heights and times on this page are a model estimate. The model reads the open-sea tide outside the lake's entrance, not the lake's own, so inside the lake the change comes later, the range is a fraction of the ocean's (often only a few centimetres), and wind and rain move the water more than the tide does. Use the BoM tide tables for New South Wales for this area.

Best Tide State to Fish Belmont Foreshore & Wharf
Being a near-enclosed lake, the foreshore is sheltered from ocean swell entirely — this is calm-water fishing, and it stays workable when the coast is blown out. The eastern shore takes the brunt of a westerly, which chops the edge up and dirties the margins, so the spot fishes best on a light easterly or a still morning before the afternoon breeze builds. Tide range in the lake is modest, but the run either side of the change still concentrates feeding fish, and the deeper water holds better through a bigger tide. After heavy rain the lake can colour and freshen, which slows the bream and whiting for a few days but can fire the flathead as bait flushes off the flats.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Belmont Foreshore & Wharf typically time sessions around the tide for yellowfin bream, dusky flathead, sand whiting, luderick, and tailor.
