About This Spot

Local knowledge & spot details

Pelican Waters Canal in Pelican Waters, QLD, offers an inviting estuary fishing experience for those keen on targeting a variety of species. Anglers often find success during the dawn and dusk hours when fish are most active, particularly around moving tides and low light conditions. The canal is home to bream, flathead, whiting, trevally, and the elusive mangrove jack, making it a versatile spot for both bait fishing and lure fishing. While casting from the shore, it's essential to remain aware of the tide movement and wind, as these factors can significantly impact water clarity and fish behaviour. The tranquil environment, combined with the potential for a great catch, makes Pelican Waters Canal a local favourite for both beginners and seasoned anglers alike.
