We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather
The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

October Fishing Report

Spring is switching on in Batemans Bay this October with warming currents lifting activity across the Clyde River, local beaches and nearby reefs. Inshore reefs are producing solid snapper on soft plastics and lightly weighted pilchards, with bycatch of morwong and the odd kingfish shadowing bait schools. Inside the estuary, edges and flats are yielding flathead on paddle-tails and bream around structure on small hardbodies. Early signs of whiting are appearing on the sand flats, especially on surface lures during the run-in tide.

On the beaches, dawn gutters hold salmon and tailor taking metals and pilchards, while the bays are clear enough for southern calamari over weed beds on size 2.5–3.0 jigs. Best bite windows are dawn and dusk, particularly around a tide change. A light nor’easter and clean water have been ideal; after rain, focus on color lines where bait pushes out of the river—perfect for ambushing jewfish/mulloway with vibes.

Top tip: Match your jighead to the drift—just heavy enough to tick bottom—so plastics stay in the strike zone without snagging on Batemans Bay’s patchy reef and rubble.

Best Fishing Spots in the greater Batemans Bay area

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 22 beaches and bays in this area.
