wow, thanks for all the info guys, appreciate it. Maybe I should have made myself more clear, I was referring to fishing off the bank/bricks/side etc.  But, at least now I know the boating reg's.  dont think they will be to impressed if I rock up in a jet-ski to get a permit.......
thanks for the feedback.

You can fish in the harbour during the day with your pink harbour disk.
 

Can anyone advise on how I go about getting a pink harbour disk?
Somehow missed Aquafan's post...  :blush:

Hi Guys, just a quick update, even though this was misunderstood  w;k . I fished the harbour over the weekend, both Saturday and Sunday. After confirming with Aquafan (thanks for the advise) and Harbour police, i launched SilverTip from the public launch area and fish the bay. Before launching, harbour police opened a File for the boat, checked skippers ticket and Survey certificate. asked if any children will be on the boat and then gave me an all clear. On Sunday, same person from previous day was on duty, check that same skippers ticket is being used and said i can launch. caught about 10 species, most undersized, which included grunter, shad, flathead, sand eel, another (unknown) eel, little silver slimy fish, rock kod, and so on. want to target some of those mullets on fly rod, imagine the fun on that, specially on a 2-3 or 3-4 weight :hehe: :hehe: :hehe: . if any of you have questions, feel free to PM me. regards, ST.
