San Remo jetty is on Marine Parade, before Phillip Island bridge.
This area is a fishing port, with a channel running past the end of the jetty.
Expect strong tidal currents as the water flows in and out through the channel.
The current slows at the turn of the tide.
Either side of high tide is usually the best and easiest time to fish.
Fish are often caught right next to the jetty.
Expect squid, KG whiting, gar, salmon, flathead, coutta, silver trevally, snapper, leatherjackets and wrasse.
Salmon, gar and squid are the most reliable catch.
Gummy sharks and various types of ray are caught, especially at night.
Pilchards, bluebait (small pilchards), prawns and squid are good baits.
Small soft plastic lures work well on snapper and flathead, with chrome slices for salmon and barracouta.
There is a reserve next to the jetty with toilets, barbecues and playground, with shops, cafes and a tackle shop nearby.
