Hi, are you fishing off the rocks? Is it possible to safely fish from a boat or are the fish right in against the rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there about a week ago. Metal lures and pillies wont work. You gota use the octopus lures. Thats the only thing that the bonitos will bite on. I find it better going early mornings on the weekdays as weekends just gets too ridiculous with 20-30 ppl all fishing like one arm length away from each other. Im pretty sure it closes at 8pm but the rangers come in to kick you out anyway so should be sweet as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
