South Stradbroke Artificial Reef sits east of South Stradbroke Island, close enough to the Gold Coast run to matter but exposed enough to need careful weather planning. The Queensland source describes it as built for both pelagic and reef fish habitat.
Best conditions: Fish it when the Gold Coast seaway and offshore conditions allow a safe run and a clean drift. Trolling the perimeter and setting drifts along the cluster line should be more useful than anchoring in the reef field.
