See a lot of guys fishing from road around rocks before Little Huia and also walking round rocks at little huia. 

Used some salmon berley and managed to catch some piper and a 45cm kahawai so not the worst I suppose! Great place to go to though, awesome atmosphere. The group next to us caught a bronze whaler I THINK, was about 80 to 1 m, was a bit far away so couldn't tell very well.

Thanks to everyone for the help, might visit the rocks next time 

Now I prefer the rocks at Huia or Whatipu for surf casting.

When the tides running, a 4oz breakout sinker is a good option however even this will not hold its location and will get dragged. The best fishing seems to be when the current is not in full flow.

The fishing isn't usually that hot there but fish do get caught. The most common catch is kahawai, you can also get trevs and there should still be some gurnard around at this time of year. When it warms up you usually get plagued by baby snaps, chances of a keeper size snap are usually pretty slim. Through the summer there are usually a few kings hanging around too which can be an awesome sight when they're sitting in the current under the wharf.

It's possible to walk round the rocks to the right hand side and get right out to the point from about 1.5-2 hours after high with a bit of climbing over some boulders. The walk takes about 25-30 minutes, you'd want to watch out for seals chilling on the rocks at this time of year, they cant get a bit agro when you almost step on them when you climb over a boulder, but usually bugger ff out of your way. Just don't block their path to the sea.

I haven't fished there for a few years so don't know what it's like these days. Don't let the wind put you off, just take some warm clothing and waterproofs

 

Have not fished from Wharf but is popular - I imagine tides have an impact this Sat low tide is 1018am - if you are burleying as well would be most effective hour before and after change of tide - like I say have not fished there but fishing in channels best times are 1 to 2 hours before and after change of tide.

 

The Manukau is very tidal so always keep an eye on tides as they affect the fishing and getting your lines down to bottom.  Heavier sinkers required in flow, lighter sinkers at slack water - this can also affect what fish you catch also.

 

 

Good luck!
