Shore Fishing - Noumea,Lifou,Mystery Island,Isle of Pine

Is it worth bringing my fishing gear along to these islands?

I'd like to fish from shore and was wondering if there are any

Restrictions or is prohibited anywhere.

Thanks.

I don't think it would be worth the effort. I've seen locals fishing in some of these places and they don't seem to catch much.

The other thing to remember is that often you will not know whose land you are fishing from. Most land is private. It's one thing to be a tourist wandering around with cash in your pocket and another to be a stranger catching what should have been the local's lunch. One will be welcome where the other is not.

If you have an urge to fish I would recommend that you leave your gear at home and book a fishing excursion from one of these ports and get out among the big stuff.
