I’m trying to catch my first squid and I’m wondering if you have any tips on where to catch them along the beach or on the wharf.also when you catch some of those big snapper and such are you casting out if so how far or are you dropping your bait down. Thanks

There are plenty of good resources here if you use the search function. For instance, @DerekD's article on squidding:

Good luck and make sure you post a report next time you try. That's the best way you can thank fellow raider like Derek for their help.

Welcome aboard.

Try the Nth end of Palmy, up near the rocks.

Never caught any squid at Palm Bch.

Good luck.

I fish Palm Beach rocks quite a lot. The rocks at southern end of Palm Beach can be very productive for squid. The area around the swimming pool can be productive as well although I haven't fished that area much. Trying to catch squid off the beach itself is probably waste of time. The beach on the Pittwater side (Station Beach) might hold some squid. However, it's very shallow. Palm Beach Public Wharf is also worth a try. This was my best session on squid from April 2019 from the Palmy rocks.
