Hi All,

Do you know those times when you are travelling along the highway or on country roads? And you drive past a river or creek you have a quick glance at the water?

Well, what would be a reasonable all-round lure if you were to pull over and have a quick cast?

Cheers, Pauly

depends if you in northern australia or southern australia.

I'd go a halco scorpion either case, but it would be a 45mm one down south, 60 or 80mm one up north.

Salt or fresh?

Carry spinnerbaits for the fresh.

Squidgy wriggler 100mm or similar and some jig heads - don't "hurt" as much when you snag em up and catch a ridiculous range of species. Fishing off the wall in Onslow WA, the list read - trevally, queenfish, school mackerel (lots of luck not to get bitten off), cod, flathead, bream and pike/barracouta???. At home in Brissy - bream, flathead, morwong, sweetlip and snapper. As much as it does pain me contributing to Mr Starling's coffers - these things do catch fish.
