Best tide state to fish Stansbury Jetty
Oyster Bay is shallow, clean and weedy — the water that makes the oysters famous is the water that makes the whiting fussy. The jetty cops the summer south-easterly square on, which blows the float fishing out and pushes everyone to mornings and evenings; settled evenings under the lights are what the place is for. Gulf St Vincent tides are semi-diurnal with the fortnightly dodge tide, when the water barely moves and the fishing usually follows — fish the running tide. Cooler months bring the bigger whiting to the seaward end, autumn brings the mullet, and summer brings the crabs and the caravan parks to capacity.
What anglers target here
Anglers fishing Stansbury Jetty typically time sessions around the tide for king george whiting, australian herring, blue swimmer crab, snook, and southern calamari (squid).
