PM me for details.. I used to fish there a lot...

You need to be there at the right times .. tides, water conditions & weather play a big role..
Target: Cob, Elf, Musslecracker, Yellowfin, Bronzies...

If you mean deep sea fishing, you are gonne have to go quite far, chokka Fishing trawlers frequent the harbour and have fished out the reefs..
