Newbie to Perth fishing scene

Hi All,

I'm new to Perth and the country so after a few decent river spots for tailor, bream and flatties etc. Cheers all. Ive invested in a decent set of hard and soft plastics so its all go as soon as i get some spots to have a crack!

Also do any of you guys weight hard bodied plastics? for example a small round weight to a swivel then maybe 60-80cm of leader down to the lure? In england it was used quite alot to cast further but unsure if you guys do it?

Thanks again,

Craig

Welcome Craig,any soft plastic in the swan is good,you need to find the drop off's .flattys will sit on the deep side on outgoing tide and shallow side for incoming.You can walk the shallows in the swan and get some nice fish."BUT WATCH OUT FOR THOSE SHARKS THERE'S A LOT OF SHARKS AROUND AT THE MOMENT" Just Kidding.
