It's easy to get all confused when faced with going to somewhere like WA. A better plan may be to fish to your strengths all week.
You will catch on most methods and by sticking to a couple that you fish well, you will catch and not spend the whole week swapping and getting stressed about "are you on the right method?"
Pellet waggler or meat feeder will catch loads on all the lakes. You could also catch well on the pole and pellets or paste in the margins. Casters or soft pellets for the silver fish on the pole at 6m.
If making pole rigs, set them all up on 4m of line and cut them down when you get to the peg. Use 0.18 with a hooklength for carp rigs and 0.12 for silvers. Elastics I would use are 6-8 hollow for silvers, no12 for carp, same as I use at home.
It's pretty warm down here at the minute, if it stays like this they'll all be shallow. I shot a magazine article at Bolingey last week (you can fish it for free as part of your WA pass) and the angler had 70lb of carp in a little over 2 hours on the pellet waggler, easy!
