Best Tide State to Fish Washaway Beach (North Harbour)
The beach fishes best on calm to light mornings with a low to mid tide and clean water moving through on the run-in. North Harbour gives it some shelter, but it faces enough open water that a decent south-east swell or a strong onshore wind will blow it out and chop up the wash. Big south-east storms do not just make it unfishable — they physically strip the sand back to the rock bed, which is how the beach earned its name. After a blow, give it a few tides to settle and for the sand to rebuild. The summer pattern of warm water and bait getting pushed inshore is what triggers the best sessions.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Washaway Beach (North Harbour) typically time sessions around the tide for tailor, yellowtail kingfish, australian salmon, yellowfin bream, and dusky flathead.
