the old wharf at whatipu can produce some gurnard this time of year, just biff out a half pillie, bit of bonito or mullet on a single hook ledger rig. Haven't tried it yet this winter so not sure how it's fishing.]]> Tue, 26 Jul 2011 19:05:23 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=67516&PID=975270&title=cornwallis-area-manukau-harbour#975270 <![CDATA[Cornwallis Area/Manukau Harbour : tried their recent1y seeb1y???...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=67516&PID=975202&title=cornwallis-area-manukau-harbour#975202 Author: Salty Bones

The first ledge on the leftside of paratutai gives some good straylining options. The top end of the tide brings swift currents right past your feet. Have had good success burleying 10mtrs upcurrent, casting straight out, good size trevs and ky. Ive never got legal snapper here though. One day. Buying  cheap hooks and bulk 1/4 or 1/2 oz is worthwhile, making it affordable to suss the grounds out before putting out the owners.

fished from the point at cornwallis many times, you can walk around the rocks from the wharf fromt about 1.5-2 hours after high with just one boulder to negotiate with a bit of climbing or wet feet, takes about 20 minutes. there's a wicked current running past on the out going and you quite often get plagued with a bit of weed on the incoming. Nice spot to fish but has never really produced much. Have caught many ky there, the odd snapper and gurnard and have had the odd kingy cruise by in the summer.
If you're heading out there at this time of year keep an eye out for seals chilling on the rocks, they can give you a bit of a scare when you're not expecting them and they can occasionally get a bit aggro if you throw small shells at them to get them to move out of your way, won't be doing that again..
