must be a lot of snags exposed after all the storms - few weeks/months before the sand is back?
hard luck

Launched a boat there in September at low water. There is a small gap in between the peirs about 20' by 20'. Other than that it was solid kelp bed all the way out to 100' and more in places. It is a graveyard for rigs.

I've had those days. Whenever I feel that the fishing bag is getting too heavy I head off to a local mark that snags up a lot. Takes the weight out of the bag. Look on the bright side.

head to Passage East, quality comfortable fishing, the pier Is hard work at the best of times but even more so in Winter.

Match venues to likely species. Not too many Winter species easily caught from the pier relative to other places.

Tough going when sessions go against ya, take the positive out of it, ya lost a bit of gear but gained some valuable knowledge, fair play lad.
