Water looks leka for Sunday at Saunders Rock, if this rain goes away then its going to be be perfect on outgoing tide. Wind going to be about 20knots predicted, so swell won't be huge on outgoing tide. Water rolling nicely for hotties.

no worries, hope you dont get chased it is hit and miss...there are also some other breakwaters on the paarden eiland side that have good hotties and I think fishing is allowed there.
I had a look at paarden eiland after reading this, but I can't  access the breakwaters because of two fences running parallel to the train tracks. And walking in from the dolocies at lagoon beach is a hard with rod and tackle. It'd be great to find a spot here because I live so close by, so is there some simpler way onto the breakwaters? Thanks in advance.

On the Atlantic Seaboard. Saunders is at the end of Sea Point and Bakoven past Camps Bay. Both fickle and overrated spots generally, but you can get some good hotties.

Yes, you are very correct in saying that taking coral worm out , does damage the black muscle bed.

However i must also state that if taken out correctly by just lifting the large greenbrown sea grass found close to the black muscle on the rock, plenty of coral worm can be found there without touching the young muscles.

 This grass grows back extremely fast and a responsible fisherman must also know not to remove any bait over and above a limit for a days fishing. Another point to remember is that large and only large black muscle can be picked for cooking or bait purposes. By 'picking' off the muscle you actually not destroying the bed, infact it gives the smaller one space to grow. There must also always be responsible bait collecting, wether it be coral worm or wonder worm, the same sustainable resposible enviromental rules always apply.

OH and EVERY TYPE OF BAIT COLLECTED HAS A LIMIT. PLS FAMILIARISE YOURSLVE WITH  MARINE AND COASTAL MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS AT ALL TIMES WHEN COLLECTING BAITS.

((goodp_((goodp_((goodp_one of my fave spots to fish. just hurts seeing some guys going overboard with the coral worm as well as undersized hotties.

Caught this fat one there. one throw and that was it. packed up after and went home.lol

White mussel works just as well anyway, and we have caught dozens in Sea Point on pilchard fished on two hooks, especially when it is calmer and you can do some chumming.
