Best tide state to fish Coffin Bay Town Jetty

The bay is a near-landlocked estuary, which makes this one of the most weatherproof platforms on the Eyre Peninsula — days that blow out the surf coast are merely breezy here. The flip side is clarity: flat, bright middays in gin-clear water are the hardest fishing of the week, and dawn, dusk and a bit of ripple on the surface are worth more than any forecast. A moving tide sliding along the weed edges beats slack water, warm-month mornings with berley are the gar and tommy sessions, and winter brings the better whiting and the salmon trout schools. No night lighting has been verified on the wharf, so plan around first and last light rather than after dark.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Coffin Bay Town Jetty typically time sessions around the tide for king george whiting, garfish, australian herring, skipjack trevally (skippy), and australian salmon.
