Hiya BlaNZ

Moved the topic to fishing talk :-)
I don't surfcast much but this seems to be a good spot in Auckland to check out.

hey yeah thats an ok fishing spot ive been there a few times caught a couple snapper and 1 or 2 kawai:)
Last time I launched at this spot with my kayak, there were at least 3 big fishing charters and a couple of smaller boats fishing near the channel markers a few hundred meters from the shore at high tide.

With so many boats maybe not too many fish will make it closer to the shore within surf casting distance ☹️
