Reflections Holidays ambassador and professional fisherman Mat Cameron knows a thing or two about casting a line. To help decide the great debate of FRESH vs SALT fishing, we asked Mat Cameron for a run down on what makes saltwater fishing on the NSW coastline just so special.
With so many anglers leaning towards the coast, Mat has shared his expert insights into why saltwater fishing in NSW is such a rewarding experience, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro.
Saltwater fishing is one of the simplest, most rewarding ways to enjoy the outdoors. It’s about more than just the catch, it’s the challenge, the variety, and the chance to bring home fresh seafood. With hundreds of accessible spots along the NSW coastline, anglers of all levels can find great fishing year-round, whether in calm estuaries, off the beach, or further offshore.
Estuaries are an excellent starting point, easy to reach, family-friendly, and productive for both bait and lure anglers.
Fishing straight from the sand is as straightforward as it gets — relaxing, accessible, and often highly productive.
For those with access to a boat, offshore fishing offers bigger fish and bigger rewards.
NSW’s coastline offers some of the best saltwater fishing in Australia. Whether you want a relaxed day on the beach, a quick cast from the estuary, or a full offshore adventure, there’s no shortage of opportunities to get hooked.
