Dave I would not have a clue where Oraro is but I remember my mate would fly a skydive plane from Glenorchy to Big Bay and wouldn't even have to put his head under for a feed of cray and paua from the rock pools.

Dont know about crays James but if I was working anywhere south of Smoothwater river on a good low tide, I would land and get 10 paua with out getting the lowas wet. You could get kina as well but I was happy to leave them where they were.
Your mate could have landed at Beansprouts or Jamestown to do that as well. I am not sure if there are any other strips that would give access to an easy feed.
Big bay is a primo spot.
