Couple of Arvo's chasing lizards @ Noosa

[Pistol_P]

I have spent the last couple of afternoons chasing Lizards in the river.....Decided I was sick of the trevally.....:P .

Have caught some great flathead both in the boat and landbased throwing plastics and I managed to crack a 80cm model out of the boat on a pink Renosky Shad...(yes I have two left)....:P .Quick picture and the big girl was released.
Great to see a big flattie in clear water swim off.
While in the boat we disturbed a flattie that I swear was close to a metre....An absolute monster....:o .

The day after I got the 80cm out of the boat I went landbased and landed two flatties at 63cm and 67cm....both caught on 5inch gulps (sardine colour) on 1/4 ounce heads.Both fish released as well.8-)

Cheers

Beautifully conditioned flathead pistol - the season seems to have kicked in earlier up the coast than down - most of the fish around Brissie and Gold Coast have been small.

Pete, you finally cracked the 80, well done. Welcome to the club!
There's heaps of lizards further upstream mate.
That's not a bad little spot there where you got those ones hey?
They just sit there waiting for bait to come around the corner.

Cheers, Jeff.

Great lizards Pete, top stuff! Wish I could latch onto a few of those shovel headed critters again. Also, interesting to note you still have a coupla Renosky's. I've managed to hoard a couple of old renosky tails as well, and find myself fastidiously patching up torn tails with super glue in the hope of keeping my favourite flattie soft plastics going. :) One day, they'll be gone altogether i suppose, but it's hard to let go, isn't it?! Have found the Bozo shads to be a pretty good substitute, and a fair bit tougher as well.

Cheers Pete, keep up the great work.
