Botany Bay

[dart]

Thinking about trying there haven't heard much about it .......is it any good?

Do you mean at the drums, where they moor the oil tankers to be of loaded? If thats the one, its a great spot when there isnt a tanker there. Its fairly deep under the drums themselves, and generally of a morning you will some surface action that you can chase around the bay.

the cans (drums) are right out in the middle, at the end of the re-fueling warf there are all sorts of fish there at any given time, reds, lizards, flounder, kings, slimies etc. etc. at other times its a desert.

in that general area there are quite a few spots to try like moulinex point, watts reef, the hot water outlet and the runways

The spot your referring to is known as the ”cans” and is in the middle of botany bay and a boat is needed, I suppose a canoe could used if your game enough. The cans can produce at various times king fish, tailor, trevally, bream, flathead, Jew fish, and on occasion bonito also a good spot to catch yakkas and slimies.
