Have a throw around Plantation Point at Vincentia. Its a pretty good spot for squid and the odd decent bream, the mouth of Currumbene Creek fishes OK landbased too.

If fishing St Georges Basin landbased you're going to be casting over shallow sand flats, so if you're a lure fisho take a few surface lures suitable for bream and whiting. Paradise Beach at Sanctuary Point is a good place to start,

Do you think it's worth fishing moona moona beach near huskisson lake afternoon/night ?

i will probably be staying close to that location

I should add there's been some pretty good salmon and tailor around the ocean beaches of late. So if your willing to drive half an hour you could try around Culburra or Sussex Inlet. Caves and Bherwerre beaches are closer but your going to have to pay to enter the national park.

Fished moona moona creek with the kids a few weeks back. Caught a couple of flatties and small bream on plastics. Had a snorkel before we left and saw quite a few flatties, bream and whiting. I learnt to fish off that bridge as a nipper, grandparents lived 100m away. Used to get good trevally there sometimes plus a few other species (pinkies, blackfish,mullet). Currumbene creek has better quality flathead and a few jews. Good luck
