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.

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 10 wharf(s) in this area.

Wrights Wharf - 1.45632930856km , Hobsons Wharf - 1.48742388189km , Holyoke Wharf - 1.50029762262km , Browns Wharf - 1.54014149327km , Chandlers Wharf - 1.56546892809km , Long Wharf - 1.5679112246km , Cumberland Wharf - 1.57001338174km , Custom House Wharf - 1.70336873502km , Union Wharf - 1.7175395981km , Engineers Wharf - 3.61219004963km

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 5 beaches and bays in this area.

Willard Beach - 1.13739318143km , Cliff House Beach - 1.8566806182km , Little Beach - 2.73882876536km , Big Beach - 2.84097133805km , West Shore Sandy Beach - 3.45593423243km

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish.

Sunset Marina - 1.02276437148km, Spring Point Marina - 1.21308672897km, Channel Crossing Marina - 1.26865479305km, Breakwater Marina - 1.46288842536km, Portland Harbor - 1.79005055229km, Jones Landing Marina - 3.65097676777km
