Coordinates, sources & safety
Source datum: WGS84. GPX download available in the map.
The official source specifies WGS84. This is an approximate reef-area position, not a surveyed individual structure. The official webpage calls this an approximate centre, while the fishing guide labels the same coordinate as an expansion-area NE corner. The pin identifies the reef area; it does not locate an individual reef ball.
Check current charts, sounder, weather, water levels and local fishing rules. Published depths do not establish clearance over structures, safe access or permission to fish. For any bar crossing, independently check current bar conditions and boating guidance.

FISHING TIPS & TRIP REPORTS
Advice from Andrew
How to use public fishing marks
Use a GPS mark and your sounder to find structure, bait and fish.
Read your sounder before dropping a line
Andrew’s examples of structure, bait and fish on the screen, and what to do with that information.
Getting started with jigging
Match the jig to the depth and current, then work the water where fish are showing.
