Hows it going Viny?

I dont no any spots down there, but its a great place. Maybe get a charter to take you after some of those big knobby headed snapper they get down there

yeh vinny spent a fair bit a time soaking baits in the area. if winds are not too strong head down to saphire beach near the resorts and this spot can yeald tailor; bream and some good size jew. if the wind is up either the north or south wall at the harbour produce simalar results with north wall good for blackeys and the south wall near (gallows ) beach can result in big jew and some massive tiger sharks hope this helps .

Saphire beach for Jew using live beach worms .....bloody good little beach !

use a paternoster rig , with a twisted dropper knott ( use a longer dropper depending on the worm size )and a WORM hook........as light a sinker as possible .

We have gotten big quantities of jew there , mostly schoolies , but a few nice fish .

Also Mutton Bird island . On the NE side , there is a ripper of a ledge ....fish it how ever you want . Bottom bash for snapper , or live bait with balloons or floats for some nice Kings . You can usually get bait out there , otherwise try and hunt some down in the marina .
