oohh ahh
If you havent been down there before then please be very wary and take extreme care. it can be a very dangerous place.
Especially when the swell is down . Waves can just appear from no where .........
Fishing in the area can be fantastic....anything from Dhufish Pinkies Baldies etc etc and Mackeral too.
Take care is all I can say. And of course good luck with the fish.
