Cheers for that mate. I appreciate it. Any tips on where to fish round there? I dont know any of the marks or the best conditions/tides?!

The whole area there is more a low water shot.
Anywhere along the beach is good with a decent sea on (chucks up some doubles every year).
It is a very shallow beach so not too good at high water.
To the left from the concrete steps onto the rocks is the boulders, good spot with a southerly sea running, chucking across the bay, be prepared to loss some gear as it's rough ground.
Further left again is second gulley, again it is rough ground and needs a decent sea running.

Cheers for the advice dazza. Thinking of giving it a look this weekend even though the seas are fairly flat. Do the rocks by the golf club fish or are the ones you are talking about north of the litlle beach a better shot? Is there any deep water within casting distance from the rocks or is it all fairly shallow?

off the rocks south end of the beach is fluke hole, little skeers running of the beach, fished better in a big southerly. then u have the big flat plato of rocks (marden) rocks off the front very heavy ground & thick kelp. then the (fingers) run down the south side of marden rocks, skeers sticking out in2 the bay,again thick of kelp & very rough, fish on a northerly if 2 big hit the beach in the corner.
