Moonee Creek is a small creek system not far from Coffs Harbour, there are a few good land based fishing spots for families to enjoy and some fishing for hardcore anglers. A kayak is the best way to explore Moonee Creek fishing spots as there is no boat ramp. The creek opens up to the river mouth which makes Moonee creek a great nursery for juvenile fish.
Fishing Moonee Creek the usual catches can be expected, Bream, Flathead, Whiting, Trevally and even Mangrove Jack. Mangrove jack are best targeted in Summer especially with lure fishing.
The headland of Green Bluff can be accessed by foot and does provide some great ledges for fishing however it is a long walk out. There is no boat ramp at Moonee Creek so fishing offshore is out of the question unless you take the kayak out!
Fishing Moonee Creek, a 4-6kg spin outfit with braid and fluorocarbon leader will cover most fishing when chasing Bream, Flathead, Whiting and Luderick.
Fishing for a tailor is a bit different but a 6kg outfit will cover most Tailor, 10kg is preferred with a long 8ft+ beach rod. Mulloway will require a more heavy duty setup, around 15kg will cover it.
