Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 9:56 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.

Tide Coefficient at 10:49 pm is 129

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.

Fishing Overview Liverpool

Fishing in Liverpool, Australia revolves around the tidal reaches of the Georges River and its feeder creeks, making it a convenient estuary system for anglers based in Sydney’s west. The key stretch runs from Moorebank down towards Milperra and beyond, with a mix of deep, slow holes and shallower, structure-laden banks that consistently produce bream, flathead, mulloway and bass.

Seasonal patterns are important on the Georges. Through spring and early summer, bream and flathead become more active along the edges and around structure, while bass and estuary perch fire up in the sweeter, less salty sections upstream. Mid-summer to early autumn sees peak action for surface-feeding species; small poppers and walk-the-dog lures draw explosive strikes from bream, whiting and bass at first and last light. Late autumn and winter favour deeper presentations: bream and trevally school in channels and around bridge pylons, and mulloway respond well to live baits and soft plastics fished tight to drop-offs and deep holes.

The main habitat types around Liverpool include bridge pylons, rock revetment walls, mangrove-lined banks, sand and mud flats, and deeper bends in the river. Bridge areas and rock walls hold bream, trevally and tailor, especially when there is good tidal flow. Mangrove edges and shallow flats are prime for flathead ambush points; look for drains and small feeder creeks emptying into the river after rain. Deeper holes and channel edges are the domains of mulloway and larger flathead—identify them by watching your sounder from a boat, or by noting where the bank drops away sharply on land-based spots.

Effective techniques around Liverpool are split between bait and lures. For bait fishing, run a light to medium spin outfit (2–4 kg or 3–6 kg) with a simple running sinker rig. Use prawns, pilchard pieces, chicken strips, and live herring or mullet for bream, flathead and mulloway. Fish close to structure: cast along rock walls, beside pylons, or into the edge of deeper channels rather than the open middle.

Lure anglers score consistently by covering water. For bream and whiting, small 40–70 mm hardbodies, crankbaits and surface lures worked slowly across shallow banks and along walls are deadly, especially on rising and falling tides. Flathead respond well to soft plastics in the 3–4 inch range on 1/8–1/4 oz jigheads; hop them down slope lines and across sand patches. Target mulloway at dawn, dusk and into the night with larger soft plastics or soft vibes fished deep and slowly near obvious structure and channel drop-offs.

Tactical tips for Liverpool include timing trips around tide changes and low-light periods, when predatory fish move closer to the edges. After rain, focus near creek mouths where bait concentrates. Use stealth: keep noise down on rock walls and approach quietly in a boat, as the relatively narrow river magnifies disturbance. Light leaders (6–10 lb) get more bites from bream and whiting in clear water, while a step up to 15–25 lb fluorocarbon helps when specifically targeting mulloway and big flathead in snaggy sections of the Georges River around Liverpool.

The Best Fishing Spots around Liverpool

Botany Bay

A vast estuary close to Liverpool with access from Brighton-Le-Sands, Dolls Point and Kurnell, Botany Bay consistently produces bream, flathead, whiting, tailor, mulloway and seasonal Australian salmon, plus squid over weed beds; summer-run whiting on the sand flats and autumn-winter squid are highlights, and the bay fishes well on tidal edges similar to Port Jackson.

Port Jackson

Sydney Harbour’s deep channels, headlands and wharfs hold kingfish, bream, flathead, tailor, trevally, snapper (inshore) and squid; peak kingfish action is spring to late summer around structure, while bream and flathead are dependable year-round, with land-based spots like Clifton Gardens and boat drifts mirroring patterns seen in Botany Bay.

Tom Uglys Bridge

Spanning the Georges River at Blakehurst/Sylvania, Tom Uglys Bridge is famed for bream, flathead, luderick, tailor and occasional mulloway around the pylons; bait-soakers and lure anglers work eddies and shadow lines, with summer evenings bringing tailor and flathead bites comparable to Captain Cook Bridge.

Captain Cook Bridge

At the mouth of the Georges River between Sans Souci and Taren Point, Captain Cook Bridge offers strong tidal flow that concentrates flathead, bream, whiting, luderick, tailor and mulloway; summer and early autumn see sand-flat whiting and drifting plastics, echoing techniques used at Tom Uglys Bridge and inside Botany Bay.

Brighton-Le-Sands Beach

This long, accessible Botany Bay shoreline is popular for whiting on the flats, flathead along gutters, and roaming tailor and salmon in the cooler months; calm conditions and clean sand make it a go-to land-based option, similar in feel to Silver Beach at Kurnell but closer to Liverpool.

Bare Island

Jutting into the entrance of Botany Bay at La Perouse, Bare Island’s rocky platforms and drop-offs hold luderick, drummer, bream, trevally, tailor and kingfish, with squid over the kelp; autumn-winter squidding and summer kingfish runs mirror nearby headlands around Port Jackson.

Silver Beach

Facing the heads at Kurnell, Silver Beach provides easy access to whiting, flathead, bream and passing tailor, with clear water and weed beds that also attract squid; its sandy stretches and proximity to deeper water fish similarly to Brighton-Le-Sands Beach across the bay.

Chipping Norton Lake

Part of the Georges River system near Liverpool, Chipping Norton Lake’s islands, drop-offs and mangrove edges produce bream, flathead, estuary perch, tailor and the odd mulloway, with warm months suiting surface and shallow-diving lures; kayak access and sheltered shores make it a calmer alternative to Botany Bay.

Nepean River

West of Liverpool, the Nepean’s pools, rapids and bankside structure hold Australian bass, carp and eel-tailed catfish; bass fire from spring through late summer on surface lures at dawn and dusk, while deeper pools fish year-round, offering a freshwater change-up from estuaries like the Georges River.

Interactive Fishing Map for the greater Liverpool area

Wharf's or Jetties are good places to wet a line and meet other fishermen. They often produce a fresh feed of fish and are also great to catch bait fish. As they are often well lit, they also provide a good opportunity for night fishing. There are 3 wharf(s) in this area.

South Park Wharf - 2.8386034553km , Bradbury Wharf - 3.29501828788km , Long Point Wharf - 3.73793380237km

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 12 beaches and bays in this area.
