Experience fish action at the tidal change. Pink Snapper, Black Snapper, Emperor and Cod all caught here at the rock just of DHI point. Jig along the rock wall for Bream, Snapper and Sweet Lip, best with use of soft plastics (3.5″ size in fluro colours worked well) and average weighted jig heads to sink against the tidal pull.
