- How accurate are these Hervey Bay tide times?
- They are predicted from the Urangan tide gauge's harmonic constants. Before this page went up, the predictions were checked against the Bureau of Meteorology's official tide tables for Urangan over two separate fortnights, springs and neaps, and at least 90% of highs and lows landed within 15 minutes. Wind and air pressure can still move the water, so allow some slack on a blowy day.
- What is the best tide to fish at Hervey Bay?
- Moving water usually fishes better than slack: the last two hours of the run-in and the first hour of the run-out are the classic window, and a change that lines up with dawn, dusk or a solunar major period is worth planning around.
