    Hilly, there are decent ramps at Dunwich (access to Peel/Goat) and Amity (Rainbow Channel/Rous/Rockwall along Amity/ areas towards Myora. Jump on google to checkout this area in more detail. There are new green zones in these areas so best to grab a map of these. If the weather allows I would head out to the Rous for divers, squid, possible school macks and longtails in deeper channels. The Rainbow Channel can also produce pelagics and reefies - use sounder to find structure, or look for birds working. Closer to Amity is a good option if the winds get up from the south/south east for protection. Close to the rocks you can catch squid, bream, flatties etc, also longtails, macks and kings can show up there. Try Peel for squire/snapper/Tailor and other reefies.

    Hope you jag weather like this on your hol.:smiley:

    Cheers,
    Matt

    hi hilly, all the spots above sound good also the wreck in the bar rofus king, and the hole at the end of bird street at amity if you use your sonder you will find structure there. There is also a wreck out the front of the amity wall between bird street and the shop. You could also go out to the group and there is heaps of reefs close to point lookout, 1mile, half way, sevens and boat rock to name a few if you get a nice day.have a good trip
