High at 9:45am (2.1m), low at 4:15pm (0.6m), next high 10:30pm – fishin' the flood tide now for best bites, accordin' to Tide-Forecast Malaysia.Fish are fired up! Solunar peaks hit mid-mornin' and evenin', with major activity on the incoming tide. Recent catches? Barramundi hammerin' in estuaries, 5-10kg hauls daily; queenfish and trevally boatin' limits offshore; snapper and grouper stackin' up on reefs.

Jiggin' with **metal slugs** or **poppers** in silver/blue for queens and trevs – 40-60g for the current. Soft plastics like paddle tails on 1/4oz heads nail barra.
