There’s a lot of whiting around at the moment so have a go at those. A lot of catchers coming from deeper water around 10m but you either need to fish these when the tides slow on the last or first hour or use heavier sinkers.

Navionics has a heap of marks on there to use as starting points. Just use your sounder and look for sand patches or fish the drop offs
Just to add to this in the lead up to the full moon it’s a lot easier to fish deep.
