Best Tide State to Fish Shorncliffe Pier
The pier faces north-east into Bramble Bay, so north-easterly sea breezes put chop straight down the deck in summer afternoons. Westerly and south-westerly winds blow off the land and leave the water flat, which is when the whiting fishing is best. Heavy rain colours the bay brown from Cabbage Tree Creek and the Pine River, which slows the whiting but can fire up the bream and flathead. Neap tides make for a gentler, more fishable flow than the big spring tides.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Shorncliffe Pier typically time sessions around the tide for yellowfin bream, sand whiting, dusky flathead, tailor, and barred javelin (grunter).
