snapbacks - particularly craw and pumpkin seed colours. deadly here in WA for a myriad of species.

And they are the most blowie resistant plastics I have ever used bar none. They arent indestrctible, but easily 10x better than standard plastics in my experience.

Rob - Where are you fishing, and what type of fish are you chasing? This will all depend on what type of plastics you should look at getting

Why not Berkley Dropshots?? Theyll go with your rod and theyll work a treat on jsut about all the estuary species.

mainly estuary fishing.. target species are the typical bream, flatties, trev, school jew, tarpon, jacks.. anything in the river basically..

2 or 3" finesse grubs in the colours I have already mentioned.

Mate its old news but 3 inch berkely bass minnows in watermelon get eaten by nearly eveything all over this country = you wont end up like me with bags of other rubbish if you try and fish these slowly with confidence.

3" Berkley Power Minnows are a good place to start. You can also get the 2" Power Hawgs for bream.

Colours: Well there's so many... Watermelon, Pearl Blue, Cinnamon, Pumpkinseed, Smelt are my favourite colours.
