| | Species Available: | Bass, Grey Mullet, Wrasse, Plaice, Garfish, Bream and others. | | How to Fish: | Where do you start with a mark like this!! There is a lot of area to cover.
There are several marks where standard rock fishing tactics could apply, most of them at the low water mark. There are some marks at the end of the rocks at low water where you can try for bream or Bass. Just take a look at low tide for somewhere nice but take care of the tide coming up behind you on some rocks.
Bass can be caught throughout the bay at both high and low water by various methods. Success can be had with both the plug and with bait.
Worth a go with surface poppers along the pipe opposite the co-op. | | Mark information: | This is a large bay with lots of spots to fish both high and low tide. It also provides some pretty good bait digging.
Most fishing is for Bass or Wrasse at high water depending where you are. There are also vast shoals of mullet available at low water off the end of the water outflow (opposite the Co-op).
The whole bay is plagued by weed and unfishable at times. | | Best Tide: | This is a large bay and all tides will suit. There are spots for low water, high water and for a rising tide. |
