State-level reports can cover very different waters, so this should be read as a broad reporting snapshot.

Based on statewide Getfished fishing report species data.

* Note that report summaries will sometimes display the same species under different names. This is because they are being reported that way. This is intentional.

Can Getfished tell if fish are biting at Tidal River, today?

No. Because no forecast can truthfully guarantee whether fish are biting at a specific spot right now. Getfished shows the current fishing conditions instead: tide movement, solunar timing, weather, wind, pressure, marine conditions and fishing report, derived, species history.

Use this information to make informed decisions about where to fish, and to compare conditions across nearby locations. Try different locations, different bait and lures. Remember to use berley and try to target a specific fish species in season.

Rigmate - Fishing gear

Tidal River

This product is one of my personal favourites. Rigmate is a versatile fishing rig DIY tool that lets you make your own rigs without tying complicated dropper knots. Saving time and frustration. Just spool off the number of loops you need and attach hooks and a sinker or berley cage. I usually allow an extra loop so I can just attach the whole rig to my snap swivel attached to my mainline.

The product is available in a range of line strengths from 5lb up to 1001lb. So it's great for a range of species, freshwater and saltwater. From paternoster rigs, running sinker and more.
