you turn off right on the bend before you hit the harbour itself then past the farm then through the gate and follow the narrow path over the cattle grids make sure you close the gate if its closed already ,baits fresh or frozen crab ,ragworm too for wrasse using floats spinners too for pollock and mackerel you can target cod too on a bigger set up using pulley rigs further out

thanks lads is there a certain part somone mentioned the crockadiles back ?

 

[codseeker]

that wud be just left side of the lighthouse where you park and not so bad of a climb you head a little north to see the path way down i wudnt attempt going on the marks though if wet as its very slippy

 

[darren]

would u say its a good mark or should i fish another part ?

 

[codseeker]

its like anywhere else m8 depends on the day it might hold fish it might not its the chance you take in this game ya might go too early in the season and get no rewards its usually around june onwards i try up there and when its nice weather and flat with some westerly behind you for comfort hope you enjoy your day goodluck

i've only fished the crocodiles back up their... was around june i think. Had some good wrass on the right hand side close to the wall/edge to around 4lb, and pollock to the same. Plenty of action and mackerel where there when required with a longer cast with a spinner...
Climb down was a bit manic and trek up and over the back i suppose you would call it... its just a very steep slippy grassy bank to content with 1st
