I wouldn't say always but if the weather allows it's worth making the effort... it really depends what you want though, I always found reds were a lot more abundant out further but we could almost always get good trout/rankins/snapper/bluebone in close.
Adam. like Jay said you get your trout,macks,cod etc in closer but if you get out wide 50m+ theres alot more reds. none of the the reds from this trip were worth a photo

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:
n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or
n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
