Help out a brother in a dry spell

So the weather is loking good for a thursday morning mission, and I am asking for a share in the wisdom to break my run of wrasse.
The tally is running at 2 trips out into the sound, 3 whiting, 1000 buttterys, about the same in wrasse and a northwester blowie.
Any info would be helpful, I'm either thinking of going down to cockburn or out from hillarys.
I also just got a HDS5 which hopefully will assist in finding some good ground. Boat is a 5.2cc
Have been using bait squid/prawns/mulies as well berley with cubed mulies

Pick Hillarys
Also lower a burley bucket ( screw top cray bait bucket) with crushed mulies - fish three mile and ensure you are anchored close to but not on top of the reef and good luck

Thanks mate, should I put some pellets in there also?

Yup pellets soaking in fish oil
Wok well but I still reckon mulie bits (always keep all old bait just for that purpose) work brilliantly as they are high in scent / oils, also keep all raw prawn heads from chrissy and new year barbies for the same purpose
If you catch any western king wrasse ( the pink ones with blue lines around their eyes) fillet them and put a whole fillet on a big rig as bait as they are awesome fresh bait
