Thanks! | It depends on your view of "good results", I was down there the otherday & one of the old Asian gentleman had half a dozen (blue mao mao I think but may have been trev's?) about the size of a ten - twenty cent piece, he seemed happy with his catch.
Most people down there nowdays use covered buckets & bins for their catch, so it's less likely to spoil your day.
Squid & piper would probably be the best target species there.
