I think my mate used to head out here with good success with Butter Fish. I can't remember what it's called, but it's easily accessible. (zoom map out to see where it is!)



Also, if you feel like walking for about 45 mins you can head to Boom Rock, north from Makara Beach.

Anywhere around the south coast is ok for butterfish, Moke etc just a matter of exploring it
