Best tide state to fish Wybung Head (Munmorah)

The headland points into the open ocean and copes best with a low, clean swell under about 1.5m and a settled sea — past 2m the lower ledges wash out and it becomes genuinely dangerous. A southerly blows straight onto the platform and makes float work miserable, while a NW, W or light NE keeps the face fishable and your line manageable. Dirty water after a big sea or rain actually suits jewfish, but kills the drummer and luderick bite. Tide changes concentrate bait against the rock; the run-up into low light is the most consistent feeding window across the species here.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Wybung Head (Munmorah) typically time sessions around the tide for mulloway (jewfish), yellowtail kingfish, bonito, tailor, and australian salmon.
