About This Spot

Local knowledge & spot details

Nestled at the confluence of Bells Creek and the ocean, the river mouth at Pelican Waters, QLD, offers a diverse fishing experience that appeals to both bank anglers and those venturing out in kayaks or small boats. The estuarine environment is alive with opportunities, particularly at dawn and dusk when the water teems with activity. Anglers often target species like bream, flathead, whiting, trevally, mangrove jack, and the elusive mulloway. The best results are typically achieved during a running tide, as the moving water enhances fish feeding patterns. However, be mindful of changing tides and wind conditions, which can impact water clarity and fish behaviour. This beautiful spot provides a tranquil backdrop for a rewarding day on the water, so pack your gear and enjoy the thrill of the catch.
