Best tide state to fish Sellicks Beach
Wind decides the day here more than anything else. An open Aldinga Bay beach that attracts kiteboarders, windsurfers and paragliders is, by definition, one the sea breeze hits hard, and the difference between a good session and a wasted drive sits entirely in the wind forecast. Gulf St Vincent tides are modest, with the gulf's dodge tides leaving the water nearly stationary for a day or two around the neaps, so a running tide is worth planning for. Winter is the productive half of the year — salmon April to September, mullet March to September, flathead April to August on the regional calendar — while summer moves the species list offshore to the boats. Gutters and banks along this beach are not documented in any source consulted, so walk the sand at low water and fish the deeper water you can see rather than the deeper water you hoped for. Rain and onshore weather bring colour into the shallows.
What anglers target here
Anglers fishing Sellicks Beach typically time sessions around the tide for australian salmon, king george whiting, yelloweye mullet, and flathead.
