Here is a few NSW spots that i intend to list on the site but haven't had a chance to tidy up yet.

• jervis bay by boat
• Jerusalem Bay in Cowan Creek & the flats behind Palm Beach as well
• behind Palm Beach along the western shore between Coasters Retreat & Longnose Point in close to the rocks.
• Around the western side of Barrenjoey from Pittwater round to the bombora. Areas to look at in Cowan Creek are in Cowan Bay itself & across in Jerusalem Bay on the western side of the bay, Yeoman's Bay , Waratah Bay & Stingray Bay.
• Just off Bare Island, in Botany Bay, there is a 'bommie' if the weather is calm
• Palm beach jetty and the surrounding kelp flats, Balmoral Jetty. Bobbin Head wharf and surrounds, Bayview boat ramp. All of those for the land based. Boaties should try around the drop offs in the bays in Cowan Creek, ie Jerusalem Bay, Waratah etc, In the lower harbour the kelp beds around middle head and North Harbour, the flats at the back of Palm beach. The go in NSW/Sydney seems to be kelp beds near a drop off, or areound headlands.
• odd squid caught from the Tathra Wharf in NSW.

Best of luck, glen
