Conran is a ramp, but I'm reliably told it's a ba5tard of a ramp.
Watch for the rocks as you back the boat into the water.

Eh **** conron

Mallacoota seems like much easier ocean access, same with Eden. I'll just stick to the estuaries until I get up to them places

Going to guy buy myself a new 10000 saragossa this week for kingfish. Probably need a new rod as well within the $200 range. Any recomendations?

Nothing wrong with the ramp at conran. Maybe watch the rocks as you back in if you can’t back a trailer and are a amature. I launch my 5.3m boat there comfortably and plenty of ab boats go out of there all the time.

I'll have a look at it. What's the surf fishing like if boating is n/a?

Great surf fishing along there. Can wade across the lake to the entrance and there are always salmon around there. Point ricardo half way from Marlo to conran is my favourite. Quite often pick up gummies there. Fair few other toothies can be caught there also.
If you have a snorkel and ab knife take it to conran for something different.
