Best tide state to fish Edithburgh Jetty
Edithburgh tucks into the foot of Yorke Peninsula and is sheltered from the westerlies and south-westerlies that blow out the Spencer Gulf side, which is why it fishes (and dives) on days Port Hughes does not. The problem winds are easterlies and south-easterlies, which run straight across the gulf onto the jetty and drop the visibility under five metres. Ocean swell is mostly blocked by the peninsula; sea state is wind-driven. Tides are semi-diurnal with a modest range around a metre, and the current over the nearby shoal grounds is what draws the whiting — a moving tide at dawn or dusk is the window. Summer is crab, snook and trevally time; autumn brings the big mullet; winter is tommies and cleaner water.
What anglers target here
Anglers fishing Edithburgh Jetty typically time sessions around the tide for king george whiting, australian herring (tommy ruff), blue swimmer crab, snook, and silver trevally.
