A popular activity for kids and their parents is to drop a rod in the water from the jetty or the rocks in and around Coles Bay.

Please take care, the weather conditions can be changeable and the bay area where boats are moored and come and go gets busy at times necessitating care.

Species of fish that can be caught from the jetty or from the rocks in and around Coles Bay include flathead, couta, striped trumpeter, albacore, southern bluefin tuna, Australian Salmon and bream is abundant in rivers in nearby towns including Swansea and Bicheno.
