About This Spot

Local knowledge & spot details

The MacKay Harbour Breakwater in Queensland offers anglers a unique rock wall fishing experience. This spot is particularly rewarding for those targeting a variety of species including bream, flathead, grunter, trevally, queenfish, and mackerel. The best times to cast your line are during dawn and dusk, or at night, especially when the tide is on the run-in. However, caution is essential; the rocks can become slippery, and wave wash may pose additional risks, so it’s wise to assess the swell height before heading out. This breakwater provides a great opportunity for lure fishing or bait fishing, making it a versatile spot for both seasoned anglers and newcomers alike. Enjoy the thrill of the catch while surrounded by the natural beauty of the harbour.
