That zx30 is a gun lure, if you look at broomstick's posts you will see he catches all sorts of things with it land based. I have a mate which just trawls it in his kayak and has picked up red mullet, pinkies, flathead, salmon, leatherjackets and squid with it.

All gun lures mate. Best way to retrieve them is to hop them along the bottom. I'd probably keep them away from the rocky bottoms as they'll just snag every time. Plastics are better in this situation.

The micro vibe is good casted at structure or fished vertically around pontoons. Look up Sloth's posts, he's pretty much the micro vibe master!

Straight down next to structure with the micros. Watch the line for any movements or if it stops sinking. Or cast out like you would any normal SP/blade, let it hit the bottom. Count to 5 and long lift. Let it drop again.

All great lures. The two strike pro lures are guns around the docks :)

yep.

At the docks, just drop it vertical next to structure. At somewhere like mordi creek, cast out and do a SP like retrieve, but lift gently and slowly.
