Had a quick look at the Wild Banks artificial reef structures and seems very impressive on the sounder.
Loaded up with yakkas and slimmies off the structure then drifted some baits over and around it with baits set high, mid and low in the water column for mixed success.
High was untouched, mid caught a small 95cm 7kg cobia and the low caught grinners....
Only had a look at 2 of the 3 structures but definately worth a stop for livies on the way out further in future. Will hold other species at times but with a no anchor policy you miss the opportunity to pick down and burley fish off the structure with livies and floaters etc...
Not far from another well known bait collecting and fishing spot.
Will try for mackies in coming months and possibly little blacks...
