Best tide state to fish Victor Harbor Causeway & Screwpile Jetty (Granite Island)

The causeway and inshore weed fish best in light winds and calm water, when floats sit still and calamari can see a jig. Encounter Bay is open ocean, so a building southerly or south-westerly puts swell and chop through and the Screwpile end becomes unpleasant and, in a real swell, unsafe near the rock wall. Dawn and dusk around a high tide are the prime windows for most species, and the bigger night tides are when mulloway anglers commit. After a blow the water dirties and the inshore fishing slows for a day or two; a settled high-pressure spell with light morning winds is the one to pick.

What anglers target here

Anglers fishing Victor Harbor Causeway & Screwpile Jetty (Granite Island) typically time sessions around the tide for southern calamari (squid), snook, garfish, australian herring, and australian salmon.
