Look for any breaks in the surf ,they are normally holes & deep area's .Thats where you want to throw your bait.Mark the spot either by land marks or GPS
if you have one. Having found your hole ,work the tide so its high tide 2 hours after dark or 2 hours before light.A fairly flat sea is best but sure river mouths
etc are OK but find a hole on a surf beach is a lot better. Hope you find some thing handy to home too much travel makes for expensive fish & fishing.
I found a hole at Whiritoa a few years ago , I have pulled a shit load of fish out of even since .

Wont be hard to find....the beach is only 5-600 metres long
