Young fella's PB flatty

[freddyfish]

Son Chad caught this 45cm flatty on the Pine last weekend. His personal best . We were going to release it but he wanted to bring it home and show it to Granddad.

Cheers
Brad.

Excellent fish Chad,

Pitty the teachers at school would object to you bringing the fish into class to show all your school mates too!! I know I would be tempted!

Brad, sit Chad on the keyboard and get him to tell us how he caught it, would you? I reckon we should start another segment and call it Kid's Corner. Love to hear his story.

Thanks Chad

That's as good a description of a flattie bite as I have heard, maybe you will get back there and try again soon?

I am sure you have the technique now and will spend many more good trips with your Dad.

Brad do you blame him to take it home and show it off good on him great fish good to see the kids getting involved

Well done Chad!!!
If I caught a lizard that big I'd be very happy too. Excellent write up and that's a great way to support the fish with lip grips.
Start young and learn early champ. I have no doubts you'll get some bigger ones in the future. More pics to keep blokes like me happy as well.
Well done.

I don't blame him for keeping it . We ate it the next night. We usually keep most of the legal fish we catch to eat .

I don't know what it is about flathead but lately I've been feeling sorry for them and releasing them.

Maybe it's reading all the reports on Ausfish that show the pic then say the fish was released. The missus has been thinking the same thing.

Don't mind if the young fella wants to keep them tho.

Cheers guys

Chad you did very well mate, I would be very proud with a fish like that. I would want to take it home to so my grandad too. If you keep up with learning how to fish you will be catching bigger fish in the years to come and we will be learning from you.
