flatties

should be a good year on the flatties in the river this year. went out for a flick yesterday lunch time and ended up with 9 flatties and seen a few small flounder following the lure. went breaming last week with a mate and ended up with a few flatties as by catch.

there everywhere!

nice work,

Plenty of big flathead around.

Pulled out a 54 saturday morning while breaming. Hopefully its another big season, last year was just ridiculous and this year is looking just as good.

Get some of those 4 inch minnows out for the big girls.

40cm+

Just remember that anything over 40cm is more than likely a breeding stock female. It'd be wise to return them safely to the water after a quick snap. Plenty of smaller models around by the sound of it.

I release all mine small and large and althought it wasnt a PB that fish left me with the greatest feeling of self satisfaction, more than any fish I have released.

i was using the 2.5'' z man grub. only used 1 plastic for the whole sesh. after i got 4 or 5 flatties the tail got bit in half but i kept using it and got another 4. flatties are greedy. i got a few near burswood then went down to the lewin baracks area sabre. but over the past week or so i have been getting them anywhere from the e shed down to belmont area.
