Currumbin Creek fishing times — what works here

Currumbin Creek enters the ocean between Currumbin Beach and Palm Beach on the Gold Coast. The creek and its tidal pool are a productive estuary fishery: flathead on the lower sections, mangrove jack and trevally around the snags and mangroves, and bream throughout. The creek mouth and the rock training walls produce tailor and trevally during the warmer months. One of the Gold Coast's most accessible estuary fishing spots — a short drive from central Surfers Paradise.

Best tides for fishing Currumbin Creek

Tide stage is the most reliable predictor of the bite at Currumbin Creek. For most inshore species here (flathead, bream, whiting), the prime windows are:

• Last two hours of the run-out — bait funnels off the flats into the channels. This is the prime ambush window.
• First hour of the run-in — fish push up onto the banks behind the bait. Bream and whiting are active.
• Dawn on a falling tide — the overlap of low light and active tidal flow is the textbook best fishing window for most species.
