Hi Sam...just typed in
Hi Sam...just typed in geraldton in the fishwrecked search box and quite a few pages come up might be worth a look for more localised info...gardies etc love berley if they're around they'll come small long shanked hooks maybe rigged with a floating berley blob ...I've had most luck with a dough mix as bait...if you can get hold of some maggots they as well as herring will be lining up to jump on your hooks..pilchards no idea

Hi Chris. Thanks for the reply. Yes I will have more of a look on this topic. But just from your own experiences where would be a good location to fish for gardies. Would harbour/marina type areas be the shot - calmer deeper water. Or can they be found in surf areas with rock/reef. Thanks again
