yeah just go around the edges casting lures or Sp's, rather easy to catch once you find them.

What sort of lures do you recommend for reddies? Do they go for minnow style lures or spinners, or something else?

Pink tassies are great as are spinners

Reddies practically take any small soft plastic but grubs are known to be the best
Angling is the name given to fishing by people that can't fish

I've found reddies find pink tassie devils pretty well. If you get the size 2 ones you can cast them a long way and they get down fairly deep. They smash them at Auravale.
