Best Tide State to Fish Stony Point Pier
Western Port's tides are the whole story. The range here is about 2.5–3 m on spring tides and still well over a metre on neaps, several times what the Port Phillip piers see, and the run through the channel is strong in both directions. A southerly or south-easterly blows straight onto the pier and makes the outer end unpleasant; a north-westerly is awkward for casting but safer. Water clarity improves on the flood. Night tides in late spring are worth the lost sleep for snapper.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Stony Point Pier typically time sessions around the tide for snapper, king george whiting, southern calamari (squid), flathead, and australian salmon.
