Ranked by how strongly pollack show at each mark. The chip on the right is today's live fish forecast.
Soft plastics or float-fished sandeel along rock edges; dawn/dusk on a rising tide; work lures past kelp.
Work soft plastics or metals midwater over kelp from the point on the flood; best at dawn/dusk spring–autumn.
Work metal jigs or soft plastics at dawn/dusk along the kelp-lined rocks and quarry wall on a flooding tide. Deep water close in; keep lures mid-depth to avoid kelp.
Work metals or soft plastics along kelp edges from the point at dawn/dusk on a flooding tide; deeper water close in.
Work metals or soft plastics tight to the rocks over kelp; dawn/dusk on a flooding tide with a bit of swell. Float-fished sandeel also scores from the headland ledges.
Work metal jigs or soft plastics parallel to the kelpy rock edges at dawn/dusk on the flood. Deep water; keep lures mid-water to avoid snags.
Cast soft plastics or metals along kelp-lined gullies; best at dusk on a flooding tide with a little swell. Keep lures high to avoid kelp and use 20–30 lb leaders.
Dawn/dusk on the flood; work weedless soft plastics or metal sandeels along kelp gullies off the headlands. Spring–autumn, a light swell helps.
Float-fish or work 20-40 g metals/soft plastics along kelp ledges on the flood; dusk best. Keep lures deep and retrieve steady, watch snags and swell.
Weedless soft plastics or metals worked along kelp-fringed ledges; dawn/dusk on a flooding tide. Cast parallel to the rock face and let lures swing in the tide.
Weedless soft plastics or metals worked along kelp edges at dawn/dusk on the flood. Cast parallel to the ledges; clearer water helps. Expect strong tide and snags.
Spin soft sandeels/metals along kelp gullies from mid-flood to dusk; keep lures deep and moving. Float-fished sandeel also works on a rising tide.
Spin sandeels or soft plastics along kelp gullies; best on the flood at dusk. Work lures tight to rock faces and lift fish clear quickly.
Spin metals or soft sandeels from rock points at dawn/dusk on a flooding tide; work lures tight to kelp edges. Clear water with a light swell is best.
Weedless soft plastics or metals worked along kelp gullies; dawn/dusk on a flooding tide. Keep lures deep and retrieve steadily parallel to the ledges.
Work soft plastics or metals at dawn/dusk along kelp edges on a flooding tide; autumn best. Long rod to keep line clear of ledges.
Work soft shads or metal jigs along kelp-lined ledges at dawn/dusk on a flooding tide; keep lures deep and steady in the tide run.
Soft plastics or metals worked along kelp edges at dawn/dusk on a flooding tide; cast parallel to ledges; clear water helps. Watch swell.
Dawn/dusk on a flooding tide; work soft plastics or metals deep along kelp-filled gullies and cliff edges. Keep lures down; only fish in a manageable swell.
Deep kelp-lined ledges; work 20-40 g metals or soft plastics at dawn/dusk on the flood. Long casts not needed; keep lures tight to the rock face.
Work soft plastics or 20–60g metals along kelp edges from the points at dawn/dusk on the flood. Keep lures deep; watch the swell.
Weedless soft plastics or metal jigs at dawn/dusk on the flood; cast tight to kelp gullies and retrieve mid-depth. Snaggy - use rotten-bottom if baiting.
Work metal jigs or soft plastics along kelp edges on the flood, best at dawn/dusk. Cast parallel to the ledges; avoid slack water.
Spin soft plastics or metal jigs along kelp-fringed ledges at dawn/dusk on the flood; keep lures tight to rock faces. 20-40g heads, weedless helps in rough ground.
Deep water off the point; work 2–4 in weedless soft plastics or metals along kelp edges at dawn/dusk on a flooding tide. Keep lures high to avoid snags.
