Lots of places to land base here QS ,put the missus and kids in the car head over the hill to Kuoatunu then turn right to Opito ,Otama and Matapaua bays take your pick .The rocks at the right hand end of Otama extending round to Sarahs Gully fish well and are easy walking ,as said previously the right hand end of Opito Bay ,walk to end of beach then up and over to the outside there are lots of spots ,Left hand end of matapaua bay or walk to right hand end climb steps to top of ridge then follow track ,any where from there to Sandy bay will fish well

Back here in town as above Davis point accessed from Simpsons beach (easy walk ) the wharf ,the Pipi beds to left of wharf ,the two groynes forming the Marina all easily fished .Take a walk round Robinson Rd past Lovers rock to the Waterways entrance at night with a spear and a light for flounder Giving way to much info here you will all want to come and live in paradice with the lucky ones LOL

The bar there always changes, if you have waders you may be able to walk it at high, I never tried, we always went at low, some years depending on the bar shape you would barely even get your feet wet walking across (its not far). As said best bet is on the outgoing as there is a bit of current there, and incoming will see you fishing round the corner of the wharf piles unless you have decent lead.]]> Mon, 14 Jun 2010 18:00:09 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=54417&PID=778687&title=buffalo-beach-whitianga#778687 <![CDATA[Buffalo Beach Whitianga : cheers guys will have to give...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=54417&PID=778679&title=buffalo-beach-whitianga#778679 Author: Quick silver

Hey Keep on Fishing,

Grab you surf caster, some squid and bonito head to the wharf approaching low tide watch the sand bank to the left appear, walk out get fresh tuatuas straight at your feet, fish the out going tide in the channel and move back in with the tide, you should pull a few snapps in if not get your limit... take your rod holder and a bucket and make sure you have sand spike sinkers...

Good luck mate, great spot and the wife and kids can watch from the beach.

Hey Q

Go to opito bay we use to walk to the right facing the water and walk around the old Par there is a little island there we use to X on the low tide and fish it through the high and get some good Kings there!

Also we use to scammper across the land to the right before going around the par, comes out to a little bay and we use to go to the right hand side up over the kliffs there's some mean terrain there for kings!I have also seen a few people go to the left hand side of opito bay but never ventured there my self but looked mean once going past it in a boat!!!!!
