What lures should I use? Silversides will probably take a small hook with powerbait (24?) and mullet I have no clue? If I get to fish the lagoons what lure would you advice me to use as a good allrounder?

ja silversides same as DT, maybe try a 30
mullet eat plankton off the surface, or algae off the bottom... definitely catchable on fly but your best bet with them is to chum a lot with mashed sardine mixed with bread or sand then try dip them with a small white curly.

good all rounder for things like shad, kob and garrick will be soft plastics or bucktail jigs... you have to use a leader, preferably fluoro but clear mono will work... 15lb should be fine but just check for wear after catching a fish

I think I will rather fish for the predators as chumming the water seems like a hassle. What technique do you fish for the jig or plastics and what plastics would I need. What setup will work for this kind of fishing? Medium heavy setup with 30lb braid and a 2500 Shimano koffiegrinder?

true but chumming the water gets hordes of fish in to you within minutes....

na we use 30lb for sharks, you can use 8lb with a 2500 grinder :)

soft plastics like the new mcarthy 4inch paddletails will be perfect

Ek gaan Plettenbergbaai toe oor Desember, so ek gaan ook bietjie die artlure ding in die getymondings daar probeer.

En, so op die topic van mullet ...

Ek het op hierdie storie afgekom van ouens wat mullet in die middel van die Karoo van alle plekke gevang het.

Die selfde dam het ook karp en baber (scroll af na middel van post).

Ek het nooit geweet dat mullet in varswater kan oorleef nie.

Cheers
