generally when the big schools are in cast toward the city only 5-15 metres out generally underarm flick out from pier watch people and the way they do it.

from first little pier all the way the kiosk youll catch fish in good numbers. but you can get fish either side youll need heavy sinkers 2 to 3 oz star if its a big southerly and you fish towards brighton.

pilchard cubes on 1/0 paternoster should do some damage if there around

most people are generally pretty nice and if asked nicely will tell you if there biting or not and which side there biting on. when there on youll know about it. 2 weeks ago the whole pier caught fish on both sides but mostly the city side. i like the middle of the pier and will put a rod on each side to start with till i get fish then move rods over to side your getting fish on

good luck and fish with drag a little loose, seen a few rods go over. hope you get onto some.

also ive never seen the gates close before but you can park on beach road

9PM is too late. Fish from 5PM to 8PM and that's it.
