This time of year Busby point can really fire. Easy well made 2.2k track from Urquharts bay. 3 ways to walk there. Around past the gun turrets on the harbour side. Up over the saddle and down to smugglers bay then follow the track is my preferred way. Lastly follow the ride line. All these ways you get to the ridge line near the end drop down to the left.
At the point you can fish rodholders or wander around to the left another 30m and there is a long flat ledge. I've not fished the most eastern cnr You can't get to it from this side. This is where folks chase the kingfish and I'm not sure exactly how to get there safely.
Smugglers is also a great underrated spot. When you get to the beach hang a left and go along the rocks as far as you can. A gut will stop your travels back up a little till you find a large rock with a tilt slightly towards the sea. Casting off here is into a sandy area amongst the rocks. 2 hours each side of low as then you will get pushed back. Usual thing though fish the changes of light.
