dont write it off so quick hairy, its a great venue for flounder etc when in season and when using the right baits.
give it another go from september october time with rag , lug and mackerel and see the difference!

when they are on it they are really close in, 3rd wave a general target to startr then work in or out from that till you locate them.
sometimes the turbot are a little further out.

i've caught fish at most stages of the tide on it, it may well pick up again in the summer evenings but to be honest ive never fished it before september.
