Current Fishing Weather
Wind Speed and Direction
Wind Direction:
Wind Speed:
Wind Direction and Speed are one of the most important aspects for choosing a fishing spot. An offshore wind can help land-based anglers with longer casting distances, while an onshore wind will make kayak fishing safer. Often fish will also move to certain feeding areas depending on the wind direction. Check out the long term wind forecast at the charts below.
Fishing Barometer
Atmospheric Pressure:
Change since midnight:
Trend for next 6 hours:
Atmospheric or Barometric Pressure affects fish activity. The best fishing can be had on a rising barometer and also the time just before it is falling. A steady barometer in the higher ranges can also mean good fishing. A falling or low barometer reading without much change is usually not a very good time for fishing.
UV Effect on Fishing
As a rule of thumb, the higher the UV index, the deeper fish will move. Shallow water fishing is best done at times with a low UV index. When the UV is high, stick to early mornings, late evenings and shaded areas. The effect is less noticable in deeper water, but often a higher UV index can produce good results in the deep.

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.

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.
