Closed Face Reels?

[danielsydney]

Does anyone have some tips on how to use and what rigs are best for closed face reeels in Sydney and some good places to use them that might yield some results?

What do others use the reels to catch? What rigs and what kinds of fish are they used for catching?

Daniel, I used to have one for chasing bream around the rock walls on the Clarence River at Yamba. Had it on a nice Diawa pistol-grip rod and found it great for short accurate casting. Rig was a simple running ball sinker above a swivel with a sort leader to a 3/0 or 4/0 hook. Size of the sinker and hooks dependent on run of the tide and size of the fish. Pump some yabbies for bait and can't go wrong.
