Best Tide State to Fish Hastings Point Headland & Cudgera Creek

The headland faces east, so a big north-east or south-east swell washes the platform and closes the ledges, while the creek mouth stays fishable in most weather. Small swell, a light westerly and the run-out tide at dawn or dusk are the combination to aim for. Rain turns the creek brown and pushes bream and flathead toward the mouth; a big flood reshapes the entrance entirely, so the channel you fished last month may not be there.

What Anglers Target Here

Anglers fishing Hastings Point Headland & Cudgera Creek typically time sessions around the tide for yellowfin bream, sand whiting, tailor, mulloway, and luderick.
