Fishing on South Coast NSW

A fishing paradise one day, even better the next.

fishermen looking for next catch and best fishing experience on south coast

In the estuaries you can fish for black bream, whiting, mulloway and big dusky flathead. Off the beaches there are plenty of good sized tailor, salmon, and gummy sharks. In shore, many reefs are host to a smorgasbord of edible species such as kingfish, snapper and the prized Tassie Trumpeter. Out further, on the Continental Shelf, are the big game species such as blue, black and striped marlin, yellowfin tuna, albacore and a variety of shark species. Wherever you choose to wet a line around here you’ll catch some decent fish.

Whether you’re after some serious big game or just a bucketful for the barby, we can help you with fishing advice and tips, equipment, accommodation, hiring a dinghy, or booking a fishing experience with one of our many well established, professional fishing charters. Contact our Visitor Information Centres.
