Nice first flatty damo!
well done mate, keep it up:)

[AngiG]

Great photo.
I really like the colour difference.
Hate to be a nark, but where are you from coz Duskies (i think the one on the right is a Dusky) in QLD have a limit of 40cm.

But for all i know its a Bar tailed or something else.
Or as its in the live well it may have even been released.

Great pic.

Its not a Dusky its a bar tail and the limit for bar and sand are 30cm and the dusky is 40 cm so they are legal

It dosnt matter how old you are Flathead are still great and a good feed.

In Coffs we have a flathead ground in about 115 foot of water and its on the way home from the reefs and islands. Even on the weekend it turned a poor esky into a respectable one. Had good fun catching too.

8 flathead between 43 and 51 cm makes for a couple of nice feeds.

keep up the flatty fishn damo. :)

[djdamo]

thanks guys btw Nathan.
What bait did yo use?

[SgBFish]

Nathan.

There are some monster flatties in the passage. Look for where the beach fisherman are towards the bottom of the island at low tide. ;)

My father dropped one at the boat a few months back. It took a whole live cod bait (11 inches long). It had a head the size of a "D" shovel. ;) and he is not prone to exaggeration.

We caught one a Mud island a while back and he had swallowed a huge cuttlefish.

Keep up the fishing its great fun and a great family activity.
