Hi diver1 You could fish Swanea Bridge on the Sydney side for jewfish using beach rods. You turn left at the divided road which is used for parking at the shops and it's alongside the Pacific highway just before you cross the bridge. You can fish right near your car, but you need to cast fish baits or lures if you like out as far as you can back from the bridge pylon and allow for the current. The shallower water on the opposite side, alongside the bridge on the western side is one of the best spots in the area for flathead in the daytime and that would suit your lures better either by boat and fishing back towards shore and would also suit if you are fishing landbased. Being winter start whenever you like and see what part of the tide produces best.
