Reading the table
- Times are Brisbane time (AEST, UTC+10; Queensland has no daylight saving). Heights are metres above Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT). Highs are in bold.
- Range: the biggest rise or fall between one tide and the next that day, in metres. A bigger range usually means stronger tidal flow.
- Dawn tide and dusk tide: the tide at sunrise and at sunset. Run-in means rising, run-out falling.
- Tide & light windows name the species in season here whose favourite tide stage lines up with the first-light window (first light to two hours after sunrise) or the last-light window (two hours before sunset to last light), on the same rule the forecast uses. Species in a closed season are never named.
- First light and last light are civil twilight, when the sun is 6° below the horizon, worked out for Brisbane Bar.
- Spring: within 2 days of a new or full moon, when the tide range is usually biggest. Neap: within 2 days of a quarter moon.
- Solunar bite times (moon overhead or underfoot for major periods, moonrise or moonset for minor ones) are folklore: they add 0 points to Catch Signal's ratings.
What are the biggest tides at Brisbane Bar in October?
The highest predicted tide at Brisbane Bar in October 2026 is 2.53 m at 10:50 am on 28 October 2026, and the lowest is 0.23 m at 3:46 am on 27 October 2026.

How do the Brisbane Bar tides compare with Pinkenba?
Pinkenba is the nearest other MSQ station to Brisbane Bar, 5.1 km to the south-west. Matching each high and low in October 2026, high water at Brisbane Bar comes about 8 minutes before Pinkenba on average and low water about 10 minutes before; highs are about the same height and lows about 0.02 m higher. Both sets of times are MSQ's own predictions for its gauges.
When is the best time to fish at Brisbane Bar?
On Catch Signal's rating, the best time to fish at Brisbane Bar is first or last light when the tide is at the stage the fish you're after bites best on, in a wind light enough to fish. From 9 October to the end of the month, first or last light meets the favourite tide of 5 of the species in season here on 12–15, 20–22 and 27–29 October, the most of any day. The table's Tide & light windows column names the species for each day, and the forecast has the wind.
