Best Tide State to Fish Forster–Tuncurry Bridge Foreshore

The tidal current under the bridge is the main driver, running hardest in the middle of each tide. A strong north-easter or southerly can push chop across the channel and make float fishing hard. Heavy rain colours the lake for days, which slows the luderick and whiting.
