Redfin pearch
Submitted by UncleStu on Wed, 2008-05-21 06:02
We;ve just had a nice feed of redfin from the warren river tasty little buggers i was wondering where the closest spot to perth would be to pick up a couple.
We tried and lost most of our hard lures with limited sucsess.
The softies were ok but the snags got the better of them
The bait we found by far the best was WORMS good old earth worms
Cant wait to go again ( catching earthworms that is)

Harvey Dam is a really good
Harvey Dam is a really good spot for them. Caught some pretty big fish off the timber on big plastics. Waroona isn't bad, but I haven't had the same bags as Harvey.

SP
The Maria 2 inch Yabbie/Marron SP works well on the reddies and they're fairly resilient also. The orange coloured ones are good and so are the el-natural brown or green!

what to use
I have found geen illuminous soft plastic great at Harvey,but also any thing with a flash of red sets them off.I fly fish and when using Red more often than not more reddies than trout. regards Tony

Vertical jigging 3 and 4
Vertical jigging 3 and 4 inch paddle tail shads works a treat. Reddies are quite happy to eat another redfin so we've been using squidgies in various colours. From the banks that can be a bit hard so we use hb lures or even spinner baits.
