I was there a few weeks back. Do you have a boat? Fished the Oyster Channel road bridge and vicinity, for flatties and bream. They get jewies there, but none for us. Also fished the breakwall neat the T piece, for blackfish and the opposite side behind the beach break (off the breakwall) for salmon, tailer and bream. There was also a spot along the Clarence river, just past the turnoff to the Big4 park, near the Palmer Channel, where a dirt boat ramp had been put in, which was a hotspot for big bream. Can't give you a location, as we just spotted it from the car and thought it would be a great spot to fish - which it was. Can't help any further. We did fish the middle wall but only got a few whiting and bream.

Your best chance is to get out on an offshore fishing charter. You'll get all your reefies with the added bonus of mahi mahi, spanish mackerel, Longtail Tuna and Wahoo at this time of year. A charter might be a good option in the river if you prefer. Jewies should be around. Flick around 5" - 7" jerk shads around the bridges and deep water off rockwalls. You should be able to get your bream, flatties and whiting from bait fishing in likely looking spots. Jacks might be around too. Good luck!

There are all sorts of fishing opportunities in Yamba, and my best advice would be to visit the 2 tackle stores and talk to them. There is also a booklet of fishing Yamba with spot marked and I can tell you these spot and info are pretty good advice. Good luck
