hi marc, was there in july, my cousin hooked a tarpan of the road bridge ,but on a fly rod, couldnt hold it, caught loads of the jetty on the beach ,fish between 1-2 lb great fun with a lite rod, prawns are the bait, we gave chef a few pesos gave us bout 5kg of them, was bringing in a small fish when got smashed up by a baracuda, you can go out on orginised fishing trips , saw boat come in ,they had a few biggish baracuda,
