That is an amazing session...congrats on the kings and the flatties!

Congrats Scratchie! That is one hell of an outing and report! Greta to see the Junior Scratchies in the thick of it and what a bag to bring home ....kings and reds! Top day!!!!

Cracking feed and backdrop:)

Go Ribs...you've cracked the code in the river and great to share the joy with the young fella and others!

That is a great session! Some cracking flathead there!!

Great session Do trags taste like mulloway?

Nice work and great fillet size!

That is one sensational new year resolution! Congrats on your impressive PB upgrade and keep them coming!

Ribs You are clocking up some very good catches.....keep it coming and I think those mulloway will get bigger and more common!

Nice work and those 50 cm models are the best filleting size too!

Onya Ribs The young fella looks a natural and I'm tipping he smashes his PB this summer....there are some big flatties out there and I think you're on the money with the big plastics!

Great report.....I could sense your excitement! Well done on the PB and look out Narabeen Lakes...you'll be terrorising the water there!

Now that is a six pack worth of filleting

If you are going to land one good fish....that's a cracker Scratchie!

Great work Zoran and friends!! Some very tasty fillets there!!

Nice rig! Congrats on the firts outing and many more safe and productive trips for you!

Great stuff Yowie That bag looks like you had the pic of the fish market....very diversified and something for everyone!

Yowie You know your stuff and have the outside flatties sorted! Interesting about how far they come off the bottom to chase baits too! Do you find the outside fish tasted better than the duskies?

Collected some flatty lollies (poddies) yesterday ready for an assault this morning on the area where I dropped two suspected jewies in the last fortnight. Headed out for the middle of the run out tide but all was pretty quiet until I had one bait taken on a run and damaged by something sizeable. It wasn't until the last of the run out that I decided to hit the deep water again. Dropped down my biggest poddy and the rod bent into the water and head shakes transmitted up the line. Soon enough I had a very nice flatty in the yak around 75-80 cm. I quickly dropped down another poddy while I held the flatty in the water next to the yak for a release at a nearby beach when the rod sprang into action again. I pulled up an almost identical flatty and as brought it into the yak it catapulted out of the net back into the water and cut me off! I didn't want to miss any more action so I released the big girl into the depths to join the escapee! The tide was starting to run in faster now and I had another poddy slammed but came up with just a hook. At the same time I had a Vibelicious thumper tail out and it was smacked by a nice fish close to 60 which I dispatched on the deck for dinner. The very next drift the same lure was smashed by a bigger fish in the 70s which came on board for a quick pic before release. What an hour I had with three fish over 70cm...my best outing yet. I'll leave it for a day but I know there are jewies around the area and I'm keen to land one soon!

Got a few keeper lizards from 45-50 and released a dozen undersized models....good signs for the future!

Great session and some nice fish.....flatty looks fat and the reds look tasty!

Very nice fish there lads! I'm heading out tomorrow morning to catch the bottom of the tide, let's hope the action is good!

Congrats on the jew and the beautiful reds!

I use a my sounder and match a HB to the depth looking for drop offs on the run out tide mainly. I don't drift much unless the tide is ripping out then its a good speed to get some lure action.

Fil I find that the blades are always in the zone for flatties no matter the depth. They also produce enough vibration even if I'm slow trolling. They also are easy to deweed on the run:)
