Key fishing spots are associated with structure and tidal flow. The area immediately around the Barramundi Creek Boat Ramp and its adjacent channels is a consistent producer. Further downstream, where the creek meets Bowling Green Bay, the confluence zone and any visible rock bars or drop-offs hold fish. Upstream from the ramp, any deep bends, submerged timber, or undercut banks provide prime ambush points for barramundi and sooty grunter.
