Needed to get some salt air into my sinusus so went down to Foreshore ramp and flicked some soft plastics from the beach near the ramp ( not sure if you are allowed to fish there but no security came near me. Spent half hour with dozens of casts with a couple of different plastics with only the one touch which was a toad fish that flicked off while still in the water. At least I had some casting to keep my wrist nimble.

Frank Maybe you needed to take some Bait, if they weren't interested in the Rubber.

Have never used plastic, always used sea cabbage for nigers and fresh nippers and worms but was along time ago.
Maybe because I lived with my parents on the reserve at woy woy and only had like 50' to go and pump and a kilometer up the road to get the sea cabbage fresh from the drain at the other end of the reserve . Now they were the days you could fish without permits and could get a feed almost every day with a bit of relaxation included.
