Re: Which soft plastics in Port Phillip Bay to save your life !
My answer to the question depends on if it’s an unlimited packet of plastics or just a single packet.
Unlimited would be a gulp turtleback worm in pumpkinseed. Catches everything. But you can go through a packet in an hour easily at times. I’d also consider a 4” keitech easy shiner in silver flash minnow. Probably my fav plastic of all time.
Single packet would be something from the zman stables because they just last forever. Probably be a 2.5” grub or a small paddle tail. But honestly I’ve used stuff all zmans in my time. They’ve always annoyed me. But they would prove to be a lifesaver in this type of thing.

Between the 4” and 5” they’ve accounted for all my big trout and reddies on plastic. 1/4oz 2/0 on the 4” and 3/8oz 5/0 on the 5”
Nb: fishing lakes where distance is king. Cast out and straight retrieve.
The perfect size is the 4.5” imo. A nice big tail for its size. Vs the 4” which is quite small.
