Best Tide State to Fish Locks Well Beach (Elliston)
This is a high-energy west-coast surf beach, so swell and wind direction decide everything and the fish want moving water in the gutters. Dirty, churned water after a blow is usually when the salmon fish best, while clear water on this coast calls for careful presentation and lighter leader. The competition season along this stretch runs June to August, which is the winter swell window — big fish, cold hands and a hard climb out. Read the gutters from the lookout before you descend, because you cannot pick them from the sand. Tides matter less here than swell, but a run of water through a gutter on a rising tide is still the best thing you can find.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Locks Well Beach (Elliston) typically time sessions around the tide for australian salmon, australian herring (tommy ruff), yelloweye mullet, mulloway, and tailor.
