Very well done Luc You are quickly becoming an expert at this style of fishing and I like your rationale about using the lighter gear as apposed to those other guys just nose dragging the fish up.... where's the sport in that and it is just a one sided contest too. It must be very rewarding to land fish like that on light fly gear and to out perform the other guys using bait and heavier convential gear. Nicely done Sir! All the best Ian

Great looking fish Witha and tastey looking dish Well done on a tremendous PB! Keep up the sensational work. All the best Ian

Wonderful work Scratchie as usual Great way to keep the kids busy over the holiday break too. Top stuff! Ian

Nicely done again and keep up the great work. It's very rewarding to catch fish on lures and you are doing very well. All the best Ian

Sensational work Pete and great post That's a ripper of a session you had with 6 bream and a 70's flathead Nice work as always and please keep em coming. All the best Ian

Great work and congratulations on the new outfit! Always good to Christen a new outfit with a few nice fish. Nicely done Sir. Ian

Great stuff Waz and congratulations on opening your account on SP inside Zmans are great plastics and top value too that will last and last provided of course you don't get snagged or bitten off. In fact I've had them last longer than the jig head itself. If using SPs at night a little ambient light from street lights, bridges etc will make it easier to see your line and detect bites. Keep up the great work and keep em coming. Ian

Well done Yowie on getting a few quality fish as always. Great work! All the best Ian

Congratulations Luc and tremendous effort! What a rewarding experience. I hope this is the first of many more for you on fly and yes it won't be long before that record is yours. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing. All the best Ian

Great work and nice report and photos. Hopefully Mrs P will get that stonker bream next time. Thanks for sharing. Ian

Well done and sounds like a great day out on the water. Keep up the good work. Ian

Nice work Witha! Great looking fish and top photos to capture what looks like a lovely peaceful day out on the water. Well done and keep it up. Ian

My first lure outfit was the Shimano Sienna 2500 / Catana 2-4kg combo with 4lb braid for landbased bream & flathead and has served me well and still going strong. You can get this combo for under $100 plus braid/leader if you look around. Great value for money. The Sedona is also a great affordable reel and a step up or two from the Sienna. Good luck with your selection. Ian

Welcome to Australia Adam and hope you enjoy your stay here Thanks so much Luc for going to such lengths to put up great information and photos explaining all about this topic. I like your analogy about the kids in the playground drifting towards the bin, another would be a solitary tree in the middle of a park which will draw the kids in to play around the tree, climbing it and swinging from the branches and of course providing shade and shelter from the elements. From your photos it looks like you have some great looking flats to fish right at your doorstep! In your second photo bottom right hand corner, it looks like flathead have burried themselves in the sand on a higher tide. Thanks again Luc for taking the time and effort to put this up, your input on the Forum is invaluable Great stuff Ian

Great stuff Dave Your early moring pre-work sessions always produce the goods. Well done and thanks for sharing. Ian

Magnificent story Nursie! Sounds like a great escape away from the hustle and bustle of Sydney. Good on you for making the most of the crappy weather earlier on and very nicely done on a great bag of fish. Happy Anniversary and thanks very much for sharing, great read and I stayed till the end Very well done Sir! Ian

Great read Witha and sorry to hear about the loss. Good on you for getting out there despite the horrible weather and at least you caught some nice sized bait. Good luck with your search for a new outfit. Ian

Beautiful looking fish! Sounds like a top session and good on you for taking your daughter out with you for some quality time together. Nicely done and thanks for sharing. Ian

Marvellous catch Mr Rob and congratulations You can brag as much as you want about this and rightly so. Very nicely done Sir. Ian

Top exciting post mate Good on you for taking your daughter with you. Love the tidying the room part. Better luck next time and hope you land the beast. Thanks for sharing. Ian
