Any tips where to find KG's and skippy out of Mindarie?

 Went out of Mindarie last wekend and tried in the 20m depths pretty much straight out of Mindarie for not even a bite. Then out further to 25 - 26m and nothing. came in close and drifted through 18 - 10m area and got heaps of wrasse and a few small breaksea cod. Using squid for bait. Any tips in which direction or other depths i should be looking for? how about around the wreck just north of mindarie any advice appreciated as im gonna try again this weekend

Not Mindarie but myself and the old man did well on both species about 3 weeks ago in 5m just off Hillarys until the blowies ended our fun. Also caught them in the same area/depth this time last year.

 
We just drifted across the broken ground until we caught a couple and then anchored up and sent out a berley trail and cast away from the structure and weed to avoid the wrasse. The discoloured sand seems to hold them more than the white sand.
 
$8 parking fee well spent.

 Same, Ive caught them on a few occaisions out the front of the MAAC where the first contour is. Generally I fish on the edge of the weed through that section.

 Your'e too deep. Find a lump in 4-6m of water anywhere along the three mile and burley up with chook pellets and old cooking oil. Float your bait down unweighted with a small hook.

They come and go even when feeding but thats just the samsons coming past and scaring them away. Throw out a fresh fillet when they dissapear and hang on
