The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 12:48 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

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. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

October Fishing Report

October is shaping up nicely around Kingscliff as water temps creep up and bait schools gather off the beaches and Cudgen Creek mouth. Shore anglers are finding flathead along the creek edges on small soft plastics and vibes, especially on the run-in tide. Whiting are starting to bite over the sand flats on yabbies and beach worms, while the gutters along Kingscliff Beach are still producing a few late-season tailor on pilchards at dawn and dusk.

Creek rock walls and the mouth after dark are worth a shot for school jewfish (mulloway) on soft plastics or fresh mullet strips when there’s a bit of swell and turbidity. Offshore, the shallow reefs and Nine Mile are seeing patchy but quality snapper on floatlines and micro-jigs during the first light bite, with the better sessions on days with a light NE breeze and clean water.

Top tip: Work the last hour of the run-in and first of the run-out around the Cudgen Creek mouth; start up-current, let lures or lightly weighted baits drift naturally, and cover water until you locate bait on your sounder or see surface flickers.

Best Fishing Spots in the greater Kingscliff 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 11 beaches and bays in this area.
