Five Fathom...
...off Mandurah. As said, very hit and miss, but the fish are almost always over 50cm. I've done reasonably well driftbaiting the back edge, using either whole mulies or strips of fresh skippy flesh on double-snelled 2/0's.
Cockburn Sound is more consistant but won't see many fish above 35cm. I've only ever had success there with freshly caught squid tentacles but coral prawns should be just as effective.
