I was fishing at Portarlington pier, I had my fishing rod JW 6' Storm rider spin rod 3000 (branded as 2000) 3-5 kg. I had a JW stinger lure that I got from Kmart, I got the ride from Anaconda. These are Australian salmon (likely they are western Australian salmon). I casted the lure and retrieved it (jigging the lure, no bait/sinker used) and I caught 10 salmon until I lost my lure.
