Best Tide State to Fish Fishermans Beach (Torquay)
Point Danger blocks most of the south-westerly swell that hammers the back beach, which is why the boats launch here and why it stays fishable on days the surf beaches do not. A strong north-easterly blows straight onto the beach and stirs it up, and a big south-easterly swell wraps in as well. Calm evenings on a low tide are the pick, and the bite usually lifts as the light goes. It is also when the beach finally belongs to the people holding rods rather than paddles.
What Anglers Target Here
Anglers fishing Fishermans Beach (Torquay) typically time sessions around the tide for king george whiting, snapper, gummy shark, and mulloway.
