everyone has their own personal favourites. For flatties, i prefer soft plastics as they stay in the strike zone all the time. My go to is ZMan 4 inch electric chicken

as for hard bodies for bream, i like Atomic Hardz crank 38

I like soft plastic paddle tails tas well but the Zerek tango shads and Lively Micro Mullet are both good Flathead lures.

Bream I like the Eco gear SX40 hard body or the ZX blades.

Yes,

Flathead are not a difficult species to catch.

Flathead

Soft Plastics (SP's) Keep the lures close to bottom and hitting the bottom.  A slow roll is fine but also a hop retrieve 1 meter off the bottom and let the SP sink back down before repeating is good too. 

Hard bodies same as above, slow roll. Best advice is to put the lure where the fish are. Target areas where at low tide the water is draining and thats where to fish. Try the search function and google there is so much information on flathead and bream techniques. 

Bream can be a lot harder species, I like a neutrally buoyant hard body that stay in the strike zone when paused and this can be very effective. If using SP's for bream a small 2' grub tail on a light jig head just enough to slowly sink, in motor oil color is a good start.

I have caught Flathead on orange peel and rags, they're not that fussy.
