My wife and I went up to Bribie today and I was determined to finally catch my first flathead on plastics.
After last weekends failed attempts I was almost ready to give up but a few questions in Saltwater Chat and a mountain of good advice has paid off! ;D;D;D
It was only 42cm (and in the process I drowned my NEW digital camera... :'( ) but I reckon it was worth it.
We were fishing off the beach at Pumicestone Passage and I was using Nuclear Chicken Gulps with a 1/4 jighead (weighed down with an extra sinker because I didn't get a chance to go and get any heavier jigheads).
Thanks to all that gave their advice freely... it was a terrific help!
(Now I'm out to chase another to prove it wasn't just blind luck!)
Not a great pic but it is a pic... (wasn't going to post it because it reminds me of my soaking wet newbie!)
