    for surf fishing get out early in the morning in front of the bowls club usually a nice gutter there. can target decent bream there, tailor can turn up at the right times, other spot is south beach (southern side of cudgen creek) usual surf species there, plus i have caught a few decent jew there late afternoon/evenings.

    go for a walk up cudgen creek past the old highway bridge and flick a few plastics should be a few flatties around.

    can also try the mouth of cudgen creek usual river species can be found there, once again early morning or late afternoon/evening would be best times.

    see how you go.

    Geez Barney don't give up all our secrets!!!!!
    don't just limit yourself to Kingscliff, especially if the wind is going to be up a bit. 10 minute drive north or South can reap great rewards

    We were there last week. Such a great place. Cudgen is teeming with fish, but were off the bite - might be the sheer number of people or the fact the water is so clear they spook I dont know. My eldest son, 14, does not give up and was rewarded with 2 legal flatties up about 50-100m before the bridge in Cudgen by walking the shallows at sunset and casting wiggle tail lures (Z-man so same flattie on each lure - they are tough) and doing the basic lift and wind technique with the occasional whip. You can see the flathead, bream, blackfish, and whiting when swimming in Cudgen.

    Have fun.

    Cheers

    PS. If from Qld dont forget you need a licence for fishing salt there - online applications are taken.
