This mark or marks can be hit and miss- estaury end throws up flatties and bass, I've had countless doggies, whiting,dab etc from High rock, and wrasse from the foot of it, though to no real size, and the Martello rocks can spit up smoothies and codling I've been told.
I've also had serious blanks here... but it is always worth a shot
