  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Public data records a boat ramp 1.4 km out. The nearest car park we can see is 1.1 km out, so expect a walk with your gear. Salmon and sea-run fish answer to spoons and spinners where lure fishing is allowed; check the method rules first. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself.
