Snapper drift grounds - off Waverly?

Hi Fishraiders,

In my pursuit of snapper and positive looking forecast for the coming Saturday (7knt winds, 1m swell), I am looking to try a new place! 

I went on a charter many moons ago and being a novice at the time, did not take exact coordinates - we caught a few snapper over many drifts of the same area, dragging heavily weighted paternoster rigs. 

I recall seeing a cemetary at the shoreline - Waverly cemetery I think. None of the FR marks in the GPS section place a mark off the cemetery so does anyone happen to know the area? Given the drifts were around 10-15min and we were moving at moderate speed, I reckon the area is quite large - might not be a single point of structure but instead an area.

Any help in locating the spot/area would be appreciated!

Waverly cemetery is the one that's visible from the ocean. 

The grounds your looking for are the snapper grounds off coogee. Very well known for snapper anywhere from 70m to 30m depth line. There is alot of broken ground and your right, it is a very big area. You will have to move around until you find them ! I can post up some marks later.
