Good rock platform for beach fishing. Bait is the most effective and the main catch is dart.

2 (maybe even 4) of us are keen to fish for Tailor on Coolum Beach in 2023. Neither of us know the area at all. We are thinking of getting some budget accommodation in the area for about 4 days so as to fish for Tailor in the area.
Could you advise me please – on the best spots to fish for Tailor, the best time of the year. Any other advice you can offer will be deeply appreciated.
Kind regards,
Bob
