About This Spot

Local knowledge & spot details

Burrum Heads, nestled in Queensland, offers an inviting estuary environment perfect for anglers chasing a variety of species. The banks along the river provide ample shore fishing opportunities, where the likes of Flathead, Bream, Whiting, and Grunter await your bait. For those targeting Mangrove Jack and Trevally, the dawn and dusk periods are particularly fruitful, especially during the incoming and run-out tides. Natural structures and vegetation in the area create ideal habitats for these fish. However, be mindful of the tide movement and wind, as they can significantly influence water clarity and fish behaviour. Bringing along a selection of bait and lures will enhance your chances of a successful catch in this picturesque setting.
