It used to be a handy spot before for thornback ray but between the end been blocked off and the harbour board flooded the place with moorings and it very hard to fish now.
Plenty of mullet hanging around the pontoon. Just hang a onion bag of bread off it the day before that should get them feeding.

worth a shot alright. There have been bass caught there. As was mentioned, the moorings make it a bit tougher to fish. Best of luck wherever you decide to go :)
