Some fish from Sunday off Mullaloo Beach

Went for a fish in the tinny with my brother (NinteyMile) off Ocean reef on Sunday. Planned to head out to the 3 mile but wind was up, so anchored in close (300metres from swimming beach) and found some weedy/reefy ground in 7metres. Ended up with a good feed of KG's and Flathead plus the usual sand whiting. The KG's went from 45-50cm and the biggest flatty went 67cm. Also lost a nice +50cm KG at the boat. I now see why they call them kidney slappers! Just shows you don’t have to go miles out to sea for a half decent feed. cheers/Ben

Lockie- I would have to agree, I actually think the flatty is a bit sweeter than the KG. cooked in fog dog cajan beer batter.
