Fish are everywhere mate, go

Fish are everywhere mate, go out and find your own spots its not that difficult. Just be aware of the waves etcnear the outer reefs.  Go slow though as it can be shallow in some places inside the reef, it isnt too deep...  so upweighted baits will be ideal, or chuck poppers etc at the outside reefs. Out side the reef i have no experience here so hopefully someone will help you. One tip I learnt there was to look for broken reef bottom with small weedy patches as this is a look spot to target your big Spanglies etc.rather than obvious deep water drop offs. Im sure others will have more specific details for you too ,good luck .
