We fished every day. Had one absolute glass off all day when we headed out deep (70m)
Most days were fishable later in the morning and early afternoon.

Yeah its 3m plus. My boat is two metres wide and the wing span on the shark wasnt far off that! There are 3 or 4 big ones in the bay that regularly appear at feeding time.

The filleting table is in the skip at denham boat ramp. We recovered the cutting boards off the top, but the legs had rusted up so we had to use a gympy mallet to collapse it!

Launch in Denham and drive
Launch in Denham and drive the boat over, you wont want to tow much bigger than a dinghy in there
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.

As rob said, we launch in denham. Mind you, lots of boats are being towed in and very much contributing to the bad state of the track.

Steep point
Hi mate, i launched my ski from denham and powered across each day. I am keen for another trip. The 70 m mark is where I found the action. Its easy to get past the rebound of the swell and sat very comfortable fishing.
