Best tide state to fish Bonnie Vale (Bundeena)

This is a fair-weather-proof estuary spot: the flats are tucked behind Bundeena and Deeban Spit, so it stays fishable in southerly and easterly blows that shut the ocean beaches and rock ledges. A run-in tide over the flats is the prime window, and a morning tide pushing in on a light westerly is as good as it gets. It fishes worst on a dead-low slack in flat midday glare, and persistent strong northerlies will chop up the open water near the ramp and dirty the shallows.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Bonnie Vale (Bundeena) typically time sessions around the tide for sand whiting, dusky flathead, yellowfin bream, luderick, and tailor.
