Fishing Overview for Disappointment Bay

North of Cape Wickham, this expansive west-facing bay is renowned for powerful gutters that hold big schools of Australian salmon and nocturnal gummy shark. Long casts with metal slices or pilchard ganged rigs find salmon along the edges of the rips, while fresh fish or squid baits after dark tempt gummies on the sand. Cooler months see the most consistent salmon action along the beach. Nearest Hub: Currie

Sun and Moon Times

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.
