There maybe a spot in the VIP area. I'm not sure though. Worth a look.

There is a good iPhone app calle the fishing mate. The GPS doesn't seem to work, but it has a heap of markers with latitude and longitude reference points

Pasadena reef is an isolated very small bit on the pipeline but much wider than the other pipeline reef. It was made when they constructed the pipeline from the marlin platform to the beach. The pipe plow ripped up some sandstone slabs and turned them on end forming a small reef. It is very hard to find on the sounder but is worth fishing all around the area.

If anyone is chasing GPS hot spots in WPB , "Bisho's Bait and Tackle" in Warragul are selling a 'newish' huge foldout map of wpb with a tonne of good GPS marks for different species, is about $8 from memory. It's probably available from other local tackle shops also.

Cheers , Rick.
