Fished Five Mile a couple of weeks ago in a club competition and I wasn't very impressed. A lot of tiny pin whiting in the dark and bugger all in daylight. Give these beaches a miss and go south the extra drive is worth it. I would rather spend an extra 45mins in a car driving knowing I would have better fishing.
Kstaff has always been the new black in my eyes anyway!!!!!!!
