This is the right spot mate. I deleted the other one.

When you say rocks...do you mean of the ocean rocks? Or do you mean targetting bream on rock walls???

If you mean ocean rocks, there are a few platforms around Kurnell that are fairly easily accessible. But caution MUST always be used when fishing rocks!

I used to fish a spot called Voodoo, just north of Boat Harbour. It is part of the Botany Bay National Park, and is accessed from Capt. Cook Drive. It was t op spot dor Pigs, Bream, and the occassional Schnapper. It was relatively safe as you could fish of the top of the cliff, and still be able to lob your bait over a reefy section.

It was best fished with a bobby cork with the bait about 2 meters below it. I found a top bait to be Cunji, but you have to bring that in from elswhere as the area is an Inter-Tidal Sanctuary, so no bait gathering is allowed. It is a top spot for some ocean run Niggers too!:)

You could also try Bare Island at low tide however cleats are a MUST as the rocks are smooth and covered in algae. Also remember to tie you rods off with a safety line, this will save you going for a swim to retrieve rods.
