Best Tide State to Fish Ross Creek Mouth (Yeppoon)

The mouth opens north-east into Keppel Bay, so the usual south-easterly trade wind blows along the beach rather than straight in, and the walls stay fishable on most trade-wind days. A strong north-easterly pushes swell onto the bar and colours the water. The incoming tide is the key; the bottom of a big low leaves the lower creek as sand and mud. After heavy rain, dirty water from the catchment moves the bream and flathead down toward the mouth.

What Anglers Target Here

Anglers fishing Ross Creek Mouth (Yeppoon) typically time sessions around the tide for sand whiting, dusky flathead, yellowfin bream, barred javelin (grunter), and mangrove jack.
