if your just goign to be situated in busso i would take the yak
you might pic up a few bonito trolling lures/livies.
there are always the sambo's and bread and butter species hanging around as well as some king george.
if you can't get out fishing the bay is just a great play to unwind and paddle for a bit!
happy fishing

you can paddle out to the busso jetty and drift around the weed beds for big squid that sit around and are having little pressure due to the closure of the jetty.

3 mile
If you are set up and have a sounder the 3 mile may be worth a try.Pinkies,small sambo and king george whiting can be found along with skippy and the possibility of a small dhuey.
Its a thin strip/edge/drop off that runs parallel to the shore about 3 miles out,goes nearly down as far as Siesta Park

Be careful if you are going to fish around the jetty
I heard they have an exclusion zone there at the moment for watercraft.

Exclusion
Callum,
I think you will find that the exclusion zone will be in place until the jetty rebuild is in process.
