Hey Paddy. Within 30-60mins drive from rockdale. Any spots?

Try the Cooks River entrance breakwall. Head south on General Holmes drive and hook a sharp left after the bridge.

Gets packed but i've had success on sunrise morning tide.

Good luck

First of all I will assume you have rockfished before, can swim and have appropriate footwear for Sydney ledges. So- from the North to the South- Barranjoey (decent walk in , can only be fished in a small swell)

North Whale- small platform , gets crowded quickly

The Ovens- needs ropes to get in

North Curly- small swell only

North Head/ Bluefish- some parts of the climb can be dangerous, some parts of the ledge are dangerous , go with someone who knows it

Julieannes- nasty little ledge in certain conditions , very slippery- ive only fished it once over 25 years ago so someone elses advice would be needed

Curracarrang- Royal National Park- not fished much these days, long walk in

Good luck
