Best Tide State to Fish Bombo Beach
As an open east-facing surf beach, Bombo needs swell to build gutters but blows out when it gets too big — under about 1.5m of clean swell the beach fishes well, and over 2m the rock points become unsafe and the sand churns to soup. A light west to north-west offshore in the morning holds the surface down and is the classic window; the northerly sea breeze that builds through summer afternoons chops it up. A run-in tide into the top of the tide is the most reliable feed on the sand, and the rock points fish best on the push around dawn and dusk. After heavy rain the water colours up and the bite drops off until it clears.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Bombo Beach typically time sessions around the tide for sand whiting, dart, yellowfin bream, dusky flathead, and australian salmon.
