Had a group of kids out today; they had a blast and caught some Spot, Roundhead, and a few Croaker. They were small though, as they were using size 8 and size 6 hooks.
You should be able to catch yourself some nice Roundhead and/or some pan-sized Spot sometime this evening on the incoming tide (after 6pm and/or around dark); use size 4 hooks unless you want the guppies.
Crabbing remains good, but has been slowing down slightly in the middle of the day due to the heat.
