hey shrek the best times in my book is darkness we used to catch plenty of them upto 3lb's right in the harbour mouth at torquay... im not sure what is left there now as those oriental gentlemen take the lot! but when i was a kid (which wasnt that long ago!) there used to be loads there.. low tide seemed better than high on a summer evening ... your best trying after 11pm though once the ferry's have finished coming in and out ect
